This. Also audiobooks of well-trodden stories can work. I used to use the Harry Potter books or the HHGTTG radio show recordings (both on audible) but this only works for programming or other non-math non-language synthesis tasks for me. If I need the language processing part of my brain to actually work for me, rather than being distracted by the voice input so it won’t interrupt me, then I need to use something like music without vocals. The fact that programming falls into the “shut up darn you language centers” category has always perplexed me, but it does. Maybe it just doesn’t always need that side of the brain and kinda takes over when it does? Not sure.
