The reason I bring this question is I have started rewatching Boston Legal and it made me reminisce. I’ve always been one to “maximize free time” in other words ive always had two separate activities running at the same time. For example Boston Legal reminds me of when I got my Xbox and started playing KOTOR and Fable as that was when my uncle gave me a small crt tv for gaming and I had a second older tv for local access television. Another one was little kuriboh/ yugioh abridged and call of duty modern warfare/ cod 4, also team four star and dbz abridged. I was wondering if anyone else also had a random combo of games/ media that was iconic to them.

I do have quite a few combined experiences like this as well. Forgot what I used to call them.
For instance, I distinctly remember a specific level portion of Jedi Knight 1 (or Mysteries of the Sith) involving a water pump and some cooling system that you had to sabotage to get through to the next section of the map, while I was listening to news on TV about the USS Cole attack.
And of course more Jedi Knight related memories during the 2002 Olympics. Specific maps, mods, etc.
I think it's because of how the brain builds and networks memories, often layering and connecting neurons based on association. And that association is probably reinforced even further whenever you recall any relevance-linked memories.
