Making for loop working in the background while loop

So I confused at here

while self.voice_client.is_playing() == True:
   self.time += 1
    self.spot.clear()

for item in self.spot:
   video = search(query=item)
   self.query.append(video)

How to combine this two parts? I want that for loop is working same time as while loop. While self.item += 1, that for item... is running too

while-loop for-loop python

Making for loop working in the background while loop

Place the functionality of a for loop in the a while loop by programming the functionality of a for loop.

A for loop processes an iterable until the end of the items. The end of the items is identified by a StopIteration error which causes exiting from the for loop.

To replicate the functionality in code, make sure to ignore StopIteration and continue the outer loop.

# Build for loop functionality
self_spot = ['Song_1','Song_2']
self_spot_items = iter(self_spot) # The iterable part of a for loop

count = 0 #
while True:
    count += 1
    # For loop functionality
    try:
        print(f'{next(self_spot_items)=}')
        # video = search(query=item)
        # self.query.append(video)
    except StopIteration: # item processing done
        pass # continue the while loop
    # Outer loop functionlaity
    print(f'{count=}')
    if count > 10:
        break

Output

next(self_spot_items)='Song_1'
count=1
next(self_spot_items)='Song_2'
count=2
count=3
count=4
count=5
count=6
count=7
count=8
count=9
count=10
count=11
