Actually, I would suggest not focusing your attention on evolutionary anthropology while you’re supposed to be piloting a multi-ton vehicle at high speeds.
When you’re driving a daily commute your mind is going to wander unless you have extraordinary focus control / mindfulness training. It’s not obvious to me that it’s more dangerous to have it directed to evolutionary anthropology than to what you’re going to do when you get home (or wherever else it wandered).

There’s a difference between accidental mental wanderings and deliberately focusing on a sped-up textbook.
If you’re listening to a sped-up textbook without focusing on it, I’d say you won’t get much out of the experience.
