Another trick is audiobooks. I commute about an hour each day. I used to spend that time listening to the news, but that just made me needlessly stressed. I started listening to audiobooks instead and can now get through one major novel a month or a few shorter novels, just on commutes. It also gives another method of branching out: I find there are some narrators I just really enjoy listening to, and so I try some of the other things they've narrated too. Sometimes I like what I find.
