>that wouldn't be particularly pedagogic
Keep in mind that most (if not all) of pedagogic is about instilling competence in people who lack motivation, discipline and perseverance. Usually the people in question are very young children, teenagers whose parents dropped them in a language course they don't really care about or overworked adults who think it'll be cool to... but don't really have the energy to put in the grunt work.

Assuming you're neither of the above, the relevant questions are: 1) Can you pull it off? 2) Does it help? Obviously reading/listening to real world media helps so that leaves 1).

I'm not saying you should intentionally steer away from good textbooks but there's only so few of those.
