Re:Ask HN: How can I reclaim some of my commute time? by nbroyal on Wednesday October 28, 2009 @01:40PM (#908322)
I don't want to hijack this thread, but I'm in the same boat. Does anyone have any recommendations for podcasts or audiobooks that discuss/teach various concepts in computer science or software development without being impossible to follow while in a car?

I tried listening various lectures, but at some point it becomes too difficult to follow because I'm unable to write down/work through anything as I'm driving. I found a few podcasts, but the content was largely hit or miss.

Any suggestions would be awesome.

Not quite Comp Sci, but I like to listen to NPR's Science Friday podcasts. I have to rewind a bit once in a while if I have to pay attention to traffic, but it's nice to be able to listen to them, instead of "wasting" time listening to the radio.
