Yeah but people already miss being stuck in traffic and their daily commute so it's not going to last

I've heard people actually say this. The horror, the horror.

For a lot of people it was their only alone time.

I only listen to podcasts while driving, so my "learning" time has been drastically reduced

Same here, I'm way behind on podcasts. The only time I listened to them was when I was driving.

Why not set aside some time each day to listen? Take a bath, lounge on the couch/hammock, and enjoy that time not commuting.

I have two young kids. There is no such thing as "lounging". :)

Pretend I'm naïve (better yet don't pretend): can't you set some boundaries? If you need to get out of the house why not go for a walk? Is it because doing something for/by yourself is seen as selfish (even by yourself), while before the commute was imposed by your job, so you could enjoy that alone time guilt-free?
