Based on your current goal—to have clear meanings and sounds without feeling overwhelmed—I have organized the podcasts in your library and the ones you just added.

Since you want to avoid "blurry" English, focus on the "Level 1" group first. These are designed specifically to be slower and easier to "decode."

Level 1: The Easiest (Clear & Structured)

These should be your first choice while driving. They are designed for your "brain nerves" to find the patterns easily.

  • Simple English News Daily (SEND7): This is perfect because it is short (7 minutes). The speakers are very careful to speak clearly about current events.
  • The English We Speak (BBC): These are only 3 minutes long. They focus on one idiom or phrase. Because they are so short, your brain can concentrate deeply without getting tired.
  • 6 Minute Grammar / 6 Minute Vocabulary (BBC): These have a very predictable structure. When your brain knows what to expect, it "decodes" the sounds much more efficiently.

Level 2: The "Sweet Spot" (Interesting but Manageable)

Once you have listened to a "pound" of the ones above, these are your next step. They are slightly more "natural."

  • English Learning for Curious Minds: The host (Alastair) speaks very clearly and avoids slang. It’s slightly more "intellectual" than the BBC, but still made specifically for learners like you.
  • Simple English Podcast: Since you already like this one, keep it in your rotation! It matches your current level perfectly.

Level 3: The "Wait" List (Hold for later)

I recommend you do not listen to these while driving for now. They are for "Native" listeners and will likely feel like that "cold energy" you want to avoid:

  • The Tim Ferriss Show: Too fast, too long, and uses very specific American slang.
  • Hidden Brain: Beautiful, but uses complex psychological terms that are hard to decode while driving.
  • Passenger List / The Amelia Project: These are audio dramas. They have background noise (like wind, cars, or people shouting) which makes "decoding" the English much harder for your brain.

A "Clear Sound" Strategy

Since you feel that the meanings and sounds aren't always clear, try this:

The "Anchor" Technique:
In your Reiki practice, you "ground" yourself. In English, do the same. Pick one series (like The English We Speak) and listen to nothing else for three days. By hearing the same two BBC hosts repeatedly, your brain becomes "親切" (familiar) with their specific voices. Once their voices feel "clear," move to the next series.

Would you like me to pick out 3 specific episodes from your new "Simple English" subscriptions to get you started tomorrow?
