I’ve read a lot of people talk about doing this, and I kinda follow, but also: almost any time I’ve tried it ends up becoming background noise and I follow almost none of it. Are those of you that do this doing simpler tasks as you listen?

Listening in the car is mostly retained. Basically any other task that requires any amount of real attention or brainpower breaks my ability to retain anything. Mowing, biking, dishes, etc are all fine. But I can’t work, that takes way too much focus. I usually watch twitch streams or movies/shows I’ve already seen when I need to focus on other stuff. Then it’s just background noise.
