- Daily Life for Medieval Peasants & More...Funny History for Sleep
Fall asleep as we explore the funny (and rather boring) history of medieval peasants.
We'll follow a very boring peasant, named Clive, and his wife, Sandra, through their daily life in the 1300s. What was life like for the average person in the Middle Ages? What did they eat, and how did they sleep?
We'll discover this and much more tonight. So enjoy this bit of history, presented in a calming, funny fashion, and nod off with a few laughs along the way to dreamland. This should not it be taken as an authoritative source of history. It's boring history, delivered in a satirical way that's soft and slow. Perfect to fall asleep with a smile on your face :)
