I'd do this, but even when I understand English fairly well, it is not my native language, and I have found many books not being available in Spanish (Latin Spanish preferred)... Also I think my brain can't really multitask... I often struggle to understand podcasts (mostly in English, but sometimes Spanish too) while driving ๐Ÿคฃ

I can't allow myself to disassociate with audiobooks.

Start with something light. Listen to fiction or comedy rather than heavy academic material.

S-town is a great fiction story mini-series.

Evil Genius with Russell Kane is a good comedy show. Wheel of Misfortune is also good and even more lighthearted.

I have trouble with multitasking too, if I am doing anything else, I can't pay attention to what I am listening, and if I am paying attention to what I am listening, I can't pay attention to what I am doing.
