Over-listen 

Blatant and obviously listening in to a conversation that you're not involved in, but aren't excluded from either. Used when admitting to listening in.

Similar to eavesdropping, but without the sneaky connotation.
I heard you mention the party so I started to over-listen. Do we need to give anyone a ride?
