While doing nothing is good for some, I'm sure many are like myself and feel better keeping busy or at least doing things I feel are semi productive.

My wife can watch TV her whole day off. I can barely sit for an hour and watch something these days, I'd rather clean and listen to a podcast, read or at the minimum - play some vidya.

Playing video games is generally regarded as unproductive, so you're in the same boat. Reading and listening to podcasts are things that are simultaneously demanded and disparaged because productivity messaging is incoherent, but whatever.
