It’s not clear to me that I could ever listen to podcasts while playing most of my library, but I’ll do my best to list some with which I might try:

• Euro Truck Simulator 2 (and, by corollary, American Truck Simulator). If you can listen to podcasts in your car, this is basically a similar experience :)
• Super Hexagon. This is not a game about making conscious decisions, it’s too fast for that. You’d have to turn off the music, and determine whether you can retain stuff you’re listening to at the same time.
• Race The Sun. This is somewhere in the middle of the above two.
• Solace Crafting. This is a relatively bare-bones sandbox RPG with harvesting, crafting, and building elements, that doesn’t require all that much decision making, and can be played at any pace.
• Minecraft (the Java edition). You’ve probably heard of it! I recommend the Java edition due to the rich modding ecosystem; you can usually find a flavor of content that suits any purpose.
• Cities: Skylines (and, by corollary, SimCity 4). These are both world-class genre-defining city builders, which can be played at your own pace, don’t require a whole lot of active involvement, and pair well with background listening of your choice.
