What to do while listening to podcasts?

To some, this question may seem idiotic, but for me it presents a bit of a problem.

During the week, I try to dedicate three hours to listening to interesting podcasts.

While listening to them, I personally am not able to do anything meaningful (reading, parsing documents, graphics, analysis, etc.). Usually at this time I play, for example, Civilization.
However, I want to do something more useful, and the game is already tired.

I'd be grateful if you could give me some good ideas.

What do you do when you listen to podcasts?

P.S. I rarely drive, so listening to them on the road is not an option.

You can do monotonous household chores: wash dishes, vacuum, cook.

Incentive to run: I forbade myself to listen to some very interesting podcasts, you can only when running.

Yes, listen on the road, but what does the steering wheel have to do with it? I listened to podcasts while walking, as long as I had time for one and a half or more hours a day; Three hours a week is not enough for me. But if you do not walk at least half an hour a day, you need to urgently reconsider something in your life.

Mandatory hours:
1. I arrange a bus-day 2 times a week ... One and a half hours round trip.
2. In the car, back and forth + throw your wife. +2 more hours a day
3. Go to lunch 40 minutes a day
4. On weekends: In the summer, work in the country. In winter, home repairs + N
5. Jogging, going to the gym + 3 hours per week
Total: ~ 20+N hours per week of mandatory hours, there is still time to listen to books. It’s just that I don’t know English so well, and good Russian podcasts are limited…
From time to time:
1. There is still time when I came to pick up my wife from work, and she is late + N extra hours
2. Hike on the way from work to the store + N extra hours
3. Take your wife to the store for clothes ... While she walks, she chooses + N extra hours ...
4. Go to her mother to the other end of the city. Taking her to see her sister +NNNNN extra hours…
5. Great to listen to books in the bathroom…
6. Ten minutes before bed + a few minutes after sleep :)

Probably not going to be original, but I go to work on foot. Get about 2 hours a day. On the road, I listen.

It all depends on the topic of the podcast. What you can listen to as a background, and at the same time do business.
I sometimes listen on my mobile phone and get comfortable in my chair :)

You can listen before going to bed, I always do this, though in the morning I remember only the first 10-15 minutes.
