Audio book and Netflix rather than news?

News about politics i n many parts of the world including the US and Japan Japan are so chaotic, as they reflect the unprecedentedly absurd actions and such ambiguous announcement by the politicians. I find myself sick of hearing/watching the crazy remarks and decided to stay away from “traditional” and “social” media. So what do I do? Watch sports? With few sports now underway partly due to Covid-19, what else can I do?
My recent solution ideas are audiobook and Netflix. I read books on Kindle, but audiobook is also good as I can do other things while listening. I recently finished “A Promised Land” by Barak Obama.. I really liked the book and his own narration. I was quite impressed with the details he writes (I wonder how he keeps these details, probably he writes diary every day?). I am also amazed how honestly he seems to show his feelings. (In several spots, I can tell he must be fuming!)
After a Promised Land, I am onto My Own Words by Ruth Bader Ginsberg. It is read not by RBG (except Introduction). I am very much looking forward to it.
Another recent habit of mine is Netflix. Recently! I joined Netflix and started watching the shows. Now I know why so many people watch Netflix as their shows(the ones I happen to watch) are interesting, funny and exciting. I need to discipline myself not to spend too much time! I often hear how we can make something (such as workout, reading etc.) a habit and now I need to discipline myself not falling into the habit of watching Netflix one after another!
