My companion has become addicted to books on tape. (My mind never shuts up, so I have no need for them, myself. I don't dislike them, certainly, but I don't feel a need for them.) Even out in the middle of nowhere there is surely, somewhere on your long commute, a library that has at least some kind of good recorded narrative...
There are always options that we haven't considered.
It is possible to turn the monotony into an asset. Monet and other Impressionist painters made it a point to paint exactly the same scene over and over again at different times of day and under different weather conditions so they could study the subtlest of differences. As a knitter, you have an artist's eye: you can transform your drives into something informative and useful-even instructive-if you really want to.
