As an aside, on this topic - are there any amazing books that grow your mind / life (power of habit, learning new things, whatever you think fits my sentence) in audiobook form?

I've been wanting to use my commute time for personal growth, but a lot of books don't lend themselves to audiobook forms. Thoughts?

Right behind you. If I'm going to burn 45 minutes a day, at least I could be listening to something that will up my knowledge.
For 45 minutes a day, I'd recommend the BBC In Our Time podcast, hosted by Melvyn Bragg. Each week, academics talk about a particular topic from the world of science, history, philosophy etc. It's unashamedly high-brow. There's a huge back catalogue as well.
Looks good. Listening to it right now
Thanks, looks great!
