Why are you trying to build a habit of consuming media? Some people just don't care for them.
That said, I listen to ATP, Comedy Bang Bang, and Roderick in the Line regularly. Much less than when I used to drive a car. It's entertainment, nothing more.
I'd say not all media is "bad". Much of the podcast suggestions in these comments are wholesome, or at least teach the listener something. That'd on a whole good, better than mindlessly listening to ads or news on the radio?
I didn't necessarily intend to characterize media as bad, just not something to build a habit of listening to. As in, to me it would be weird to want to watch more tv arbitrarily. Seems like a good thing people would have done with audiobooks to try and be more productive, but did they really learn anything?
It's not always about learning. One can get value from something without learning from something.
An example, I've tried to make a habit of listening to All Songs Considered from NPR. I'm not always in the best mood when I start, but "forcing" myself to listen on my regular schedule is good for me, my mental health, my day to day well being, and expands my musical universe. Maybe I don't really learn much, it doesn't apply to my work, but it's good for me. Making a habit of doing things that are good for you is good.
