Ask HN: Keeping busy during a commute

1 points by ramblerman 13y ago ↗ HN

I've started a new project that will have me commuting 60km a day. The distance is not too bad, but with traffic as it is I'm in the car for a solid hour.

There are a few podcasts I enjoy, but they are relatively infrequent. I'd also like something a little more engaging.

- anyone have experience with audiobooks? Do you need to speed them up? - any other ideas would be most welcome

Hyperion Cantos by Dan Simmons for a great audiobook experience. I do mean experience, the word epic is thrown around a lot but Hyperion is worlds above any Sci Fi I have read. The narration is excellent in all 4.
