I can't focus while listening to podcast or music with lyrics sadly :(. But when I'm not working I listen to the Founders podcast. I get to learn a lot about the lives and habits of successful founders and businessmen like Steve Jobs, Warren Buffett, or Jeff Bezos. I highly recommend this podcast!

For a good long time, I have been listening to "My First Million" podcast. Usually while driving to and back from the office. While working I prefer lo-fi Bollywood 90s music. keeps me focused.

@mahsimadastan haha sure here are some of the movies from the 90s - Baazigar, khalnayak, Dilse, Pardes, Taal, Border, Raja Babu and list goes on. it may take a while to vibe with them :P but once you do there is no going back.

@nitesh_pathak Send me Bollywood 90s, I don't know about it :D
Sadly I can’t focus on the podcast and work at the same time. So I listen to the Saastr podcast on my way to work

Yeah, but when I listen too much my brain automatically ignores the podcast
Listening to podcasts while working? Don't you get disturbed? Just curious. Btw, I listen to music and some songs while working. 😅

Absolutely! I find podcasts boost my productivity. Any standout episodes from Lex Fridman that you'd recommend for a workday pick-me-up?

I listen to the Thinking Leader by Bryce Hoffman and Marcus Dimbleby, but only if it's routine work that requires no concentration, otherwise I require silence or certain music good for concentration
Mansi Trivedi
Nopes, if I start listening to anything while working I tend to loose focus. I stopped music as well

@mahsimadastan I'm not listening to any of them really, which one would you suggest??

Sometimes but not often, I'm usually listening to music or have some type of documentary running in the background. The ones that I do are: The Gradient - mainly AI and technology ethics, The Rest is History - general history knowledge, The Half Percent - military veteran talk, and The Team House - Intelligence And SOF community.

I listen to him too! Lex podcasts are great but hard to multitask with it
