Ask HN: Can you listen to podcasts while working?

I used to listen to podcasts while working back when my work consisted mostly of typing code and commands.

Now when I try to listen to podcasts while typing prompts in plain English rather than Python or Bash, I can't focus on both in the same time and have to rewind many times, almost as if my brain can process natural language and code on seperate threads but only one for each at a time. Have you had similar experience?
