No way you want to listen to business or productivity books on such a long drive. It should be entertaining, a guilty pleasure. Try on Ian Fleming, James Bond: Casino Royale, or On Her Majesty’s Secret Service will do fine. Anything by Malcolm Gladwell is a fun trip. Gladwell’s narrative voice is exceptional
