Today’s episode is all about the wonderful sport of netball. Marco had never heard of it before, and guest Aimee Dyson shares her enthusiasm for the game — so much so that it becomes the official sport of The Insomnia Project. It’s a fast-paced and exciting sport, but Marco and Aimee do their best to discuss it in calm, dulcet tones. Whether they succeed in keeping things relaxing… you’ll have to listen to find out.

On this episode of The Insomnia Project, Marco welcomes guest Aimee Dyson for a gentle conversation about the sport of netball. Aimee explains why she loves the game and what makes it so exciting, while Marco learns about the sport for the very first time.

Even though netball is known for being fast-paced and energetic, the discussion unfolds in the relaxed and easygoing style listeners expect from The Insomnia Project — a sleep podcast designed to help quiet the mind and ease listeners toward rest.

This episode may have a little more excitement than usual as the hosts talk about the rules, the pace of the sport, and why Aimee is so passionate about it. But as always, the goal is to keep the conversation calm and soothing enough to help you relax.

The Insomnia Project features mundane, low-stakes conversations intended to help listeners drift into a state of slumber. Not every episode will bring you all the way to sleep, but our hope is that it helps guide you into a relaxed and peaceful state.

Follow along loosely as the conversation unfolds. And if you don’t make it to the end because you fall asleep, well… you’ve paid us the biggest compliment.

Many listeners also enjoy the podcast while working, studying, or winding down after a long day, letting the calm discussion create a relaxing background atmosphere.
