Does it make sense to passively listen to a language you're learning?

One way to engage with a language passively is by listening or watching content while not fully focused, you're still somewhat engaged but not entirely concentrating. This approach seems to have some value. But what about when the language is just playing in the background while you're doing something else, and you’re not paying attention to it at all?

For example, at work, I can listen to anything I want, but I still need to focus on my tasks. As an experiment, I listened to about 2+ hours of a podcast while working. By the end, I realized I couldn’t remember anything, except maybe the first few minutes.

So, does it make sense to passively listen to the TL this way, or is it better to just listen to music in that language instead? It might not help with learning, but at least you'd enjoy the music.

Just to be clear, I don't plan to rely solely on fully passive listening to learn the language. I'm just wondering if it has any benefits
