I do that, too, but I have to be careful, lest I end up using a true crime podcast as some kind of guided dream meditation. Ask me how I know.
Does anyone remember that novella about Law & Order: SVU where it got all freaky and magical realist sort of? I loved that story because it's exactly like what'd happen to me when I used to fall asleep to the TV.
So I have to be careful not to listen to anything too gruesome or too interesting, but still engaging enough that my mind doesn't wander.
There were a few older podcasts I liked that were intentionally boring for those purposes, like Bedtime EULA and the Insomnia Project, but neither one is doing new episodes anymore, and I've listened to existing episodes enough times they stopped working as well.
Bedtime EULA is just a guy reading End User Licensing Agreements (sometimes, I'd start getting mad about how intrusive they were, though). The Insomnia Project was two non-expert people talking about really mundane things for about half an hour. Like they have episodes called "Math, Indexing & Nail Care" and "Trains, Wallpaper & Office Supplies." I want a new podcast like that.
