Podcasts generally.
I've been liking Robservations with Rob Liefeld - the dude may have been a mediocre artist, but he's definitely passionate about comics. Listening to passionate people geek out about their passions, even if I don't care all that much about the topic (though I do like the topic, comic, in this case), is always fun.

If we're throwing music recommendations out there, I've been listening to Ehsan Gelsi's work at the moment. https://ehsangelsi.bandcamp.com/album/ephemera is a total banger.
He also upload jam sessions on youtube

They're called albums and they are "playlists" of songs by one (!) band/artist. If you want variety you can put the album on shuffle and listen to the songs in an order the original artist didn't intend.

It's got some pop, but it's got some grungy tracks I really like. Great contrast to the funk of midnight vultures which I also love.
You also got the best BH surfer album on there, so well done

audiobooks. I cant stand 99% of podcasts and musik is too distracting because most of the time the songs are either too short and I get random shit songs afterwards or its just repeats until I cant stand it. Even if its a musik playlist I made I will probably be distracted by either skipping or repeating certain songs depending on my mood.

If its music, it depends on what Im drawing, but I always end up listening to Castlevania, Megaman or Touhou.

Podcasts, Audiobooks, The News or Talk Radio, Police Bodycam Footage, Vtubers Commenting On Politics, Weird ASMR roleplay, YouTube Video Essays, Whole.shows or movies I've seen dozens of times before. Sometimes I'll play something on repeat all day and add a soundtrack to it while I draw.
Today I queued up a bunch of Wu Tang and put on a season of Cardcaptor Sakura in the background while I drew porn comms for 8 hours.
Fit together pretty good.

Usually audiobooks (horror), because drawing is generally purely mechanical and doesn't distract you from the book. Music as well, but a book is more engaging. I watch movies/shows/etc in the background sometimes too, but not everything is good for that. Big surprise, a lot of movies are better if you actually watch them attentively.

I'm sure it's considered plebeian taste by the big /mu/ heads, but Macroblank and Slowerpace, and all those barbershop/vaporwave/lo-fi beats guys are nice to zone out too. I've been working my way through the massive 24 hour long Macroblank b-side collection (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q0Dd684xc2E) for a while, between listening to other things as well.

There's also those jungle beats video game playlists, they're usually pretty excellent too, though if you listen to a few of them you start to notice some heavy repetition between them (I love Ape escape's music, Soichi Terada is a goat, but I don't need it in every friggen playlist guys). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jsd2VSZVTF8
