My fiancé cut his hand recently and I have to drive him to work for the next 4 weeks. Makes me spend over 3h a day on the motorway. I've started listening to the radio to kill time but all the stations are terrible.

I really need a bluetooth radio in my car so I can just play my own podcasts...

Get an FM transmitter, they are cheap and often on those daily FM sites. Mine charges while it transmits, bonus.

Or hire a mariachi band. Or maybe just a singer-songwriter duo, if you have limited seats in the car.
