Do like talk radio if the discussion is something I find interesting and the tone is not bombastic. Like music, have started every trip for the last 17 years with some album by Jimmy Buffet. It's become a tradition.

Interstates are boring but it's time to think, talk, listen to entire album. Things that I often don't have or make time for when not on vacation. Nice having nothing on my to-do list but drive.
I also have a problem with audio books - I either pay too much attention to them or miss too much when I need to pay attention to driving. Much prefer real books (well, not while driving!)

I also listen to my local public radio station, WRVO. It is primarily NPR "talk radio" & I have their app on my phone. I've been able to listen to it just about anywhere, but when the internet disappears, I switch to XM Radio's NPR.

While I love to listen to music of all kinds (part of my job when working was as a sound designer so I have a huge collection) for some reason I don't like it while driving.
