  • Sleeping to a Sermon in Moby Dick

    Moby Dick; Or, The Whale by Herman Melville

    Tonight’s sleepy time story takes the form of our protagonist going to a church sermon in a unique type of church, with a different type of preacher. He gets a homily about Jonah that I was confused by as I was reading it, so I’m sure you’ll fall asleep soon enough.

     

    Also, big announcement! I’ve resigned my hospitality industry job to go full time into podcast editing and promoting Sleepy Time Tales. So, if you or someone you know wants to start a podcast, or would like to offload the fiddly technical stuff, drop me a line at [email protected] or go to brightvoxaudio.com to take a look. My very competitive introductory rates are available here https://brightvoxaudio.com/pricing/

     

    And (if you’re inclined) now is a really good time to support the podcast, and me, through any of the available channels, like the Patreon, Tip Jar, Merch Store, SleepPhones link (discount code SLEEPYTIME) or even just spreading the word.

    SleepPhones, and a discount code

    In our experience the best way to experience the bedtime stories of Sleepy Time Tales is with some type of headphone or earbud, but they can be cumbersome and uncomfortable.

    Our partners at SleepPhones agree and are offering Sleepy Time Tales listeners a 10% discount on purchases of $99.95 or more. Use the link below and discount code SLEEPYTIME at checkout to get your discount.

    This is a limited time offer, so don’t sleep on it (sorry notsorry)

    To check them out go to sleepphones.sleepytimetales.net to check them out and support Sleepy Time Tales. And don’t forget to use the promo code SLEEPYTIME to get 10% off any purchase of $99.95 or more.

    New Merch Store!!

    I’ve partnered with TeePublic to setup a new merch store.

    But because I’m no visual artist I’m taking advantage of a great TeePublic feature that allows me to share the works of other creators; expose them to my audience, allow their work to be purchased, and receive a small cut myself.

    Check out the storefront at https://www.teepublic.com/stores/sleepy-time-tales?ref_id=25247 or go directly to store.sleepytimetales.net or merch.sleepytimetales.net.

    I’d also like to issue a call. Any listeners with works up on TeePublic, please feel free to let me know and I’ll look at adding your stuff to my store. No promises, but I do have a few thousand monthly listeners, so that may help give you a boost.

  • A good night’s Sleep is No Delusion

    Memoirs of Extraordinary Popular Delusions — Volume 1 by Charles Mackay

    Sleep will be very tempting as we follow the life and times of a dilettante man about town through ruin, fortune and landing on his feet. We also learn about the last Kings of France, the mechanisms of Tax farming that led to the French Revolution, and charming aristocrats as they move through the end of an era. But none of it is interesting enough to keep you awake in the dark as you start to drift off to sleep.

  • Wash away your insomnia by learning about...groundwater?

    The Elements of Geology by William Harmon Norton

    Have you wanted to learn about the importance and effects of ground water? Well I don’t think you will because this will definitely have you sleeping very soon.

    On the Origin of Species By Means of Natural Selection by Charles Darwin

    This one should help you sleep, as it’s so boring I lost track of what I was saying as I was reading this! I think it’s mostly about people breeding domestic animals? I did live edit some pretty racist stuff out so be warned if you look it up to read forther.

    I’ve partnered with TeePublic to setup a new merch store.

    But because I’m no visual artist I’m taking advantage of a great TeePublic feature that allows me to share the works of other creators; expose them to my audience, allow their work to be purchased, and receive a small cut myself.

    Check out the storefront at https://www.teepublic.com/stores/sleepy-time-tales?ref_id=25247 or go directly to store.sleepytimetales.net or merch.sleepytimetales.net.

    I’d also like to issue a call. Any listeners with works up on TeePublic, please feel free to let me know and I’ll look at adding your stuff to my store. No promises, but I do have a few thousand monthly listeners, so that may help give you a boost.

  • It’s Time To Sleep in the Days of the Comet

    In the Days of the Comet by H. G. Wells

    Fall asleep to this week’s podcast retelling one of HG Wells’ lesser known works. It’s supposed to be an apocalyptic story, but we’re busy at the moment with the romantic attempts of an embarrassing teenager. Hope you’ll be asleep before we get to the really cringy stuff.

    Story (07:04)

    SleepPhones, our exciting new partnership

    In our experience the best way to experience the bedtime stories of Sleepy Time Tales is with some type of headphone or earbud, but they can be cumbersome and uncomfortable.

    So we’ve partnered SleepPhones, manufacturers of headphones designed specifically to sleep in! They use a thin speaker fitted to a comfortable headband and have options from the cost effective wired headphones to the convenient Bluetooth model and will work with Sleepy Time Tales to improve your night’s sleep.

    To check them out go to sleepphones.sleepytimetales.net to check them out and support Sleepy Time Tales.

  • Sleepy Time with a Return to Little Women

    Sleepy Time with a Return to Little Women

    Little Women by Louisa May Alcott

    A sleep podcast can be tricky, because I need to engage you without it being too interesting. So fiction can be a risky proposition. Happily, despite the charms of the story, Little Women is far from action packed. So your slumber won’t be prevented by any excitement.

  • Sleepy Greek History is the recipe for a restful night

    The book of the ancient Greeks: An Introduction to the History and Civilization

    This week’s sleep podcast takes the desperate insomniac to the founding of Mediterranean civilisation, with the history of the nation of Minos.

    We learn, if we stay awake of course, about the possible founding of the nation, about Daedulus and Icarus, but all is in vain because you will be asleep before you learn much.
