I Can’t Sleep

602

Trouble sleeping? Let me read you something boring. Three nights a week, I use a soothing voice to quietly share slow, factual content—usually from Wikipedia. No plot twists. No drama. Just calm, sleepy facts.

    WORST ADS
    What’s the point of these horrible ads. Feels intentional to wake the person back up and force us to go paid. No thanks.
  • Winterfuzz55
    No sleeping…
    4 and a half minutes of ads in the beginning? Not cool. Jarring when supposed to help me sleep
  • Tante143
    Hilarious & SLEEPY!
    I love reading the description that says what the Episode is going to be about! That alone is what made me listen. This is MUCH better than any of those other Sleep Podcasts. I have yet to make it to the end of an episode…at least I thought I did?!?! I set the timer to One Hour and the very next night, it says that I have listened to 4 or 5 episodes…hmm something fishy going on here. I think I am being hypnotized ! LOVE IT🎉♥️❣️
  • sgbdfbhttujbcxxvnjgeth
    Love it!!
    I have pretty major insomnia. This podcast honestly changes everything. Highly recommend. One weird problem… my phone doesn’t play it!! Yes, my Bluetooth is off, yes, i have WiFi, yes, my volume is up, and yes, other podcasts play. It’s okay, because I listen on an iPad… but it’s kind of annoying. Does anyone else have this problem?
  • Greeking out dudes
    Hi
    Love it, but the adds are a little annoying! Please change it
  • leahjh04
    love it
    my favorite sleep pod!! listen to it basically every night and it always gets the job done lol. My favorites are the ones about animals so please keep making more🫶🏽
  • How many i s in hi ?
    Pls don’t say it like that!!!!
    It’s apple ach in !!!!!!
  • pineappleraccoon
    No point in listening unless you pay to remove ads
    Imagine you have not slept all night and its 6 am so you turn this on and skip the first few ads. You finally doze off in the middle of the podcast to be abruptly woken up at the end by a loud jarring ad! So annoyed! What is the point of this ? I can understand maybe an ad at the beginning but at the end its not helpful at all!! :/
  • Fdrh
    Helps
    Helps me sleep
  • Meeki girl
    Works like a charm
    Whenever I’m having trouble sleeping, I listen to this and it knocks me out. I have struggled with insomnia for years! I only wish that the episodes lasted longer, even 45 mins-1 hour. That way you could just have the sleep timer to shut it off after a single episode.
  • JuLeSsssSsj
    I can’t stay awake
    I get a lot of stress from all the sports and volunteering at my school but when I started listening to this podcast, I went from not being able to fall asleep for two hours, to being able to falling asleep in less than 20 minutes. Great podcast and would recommend from anyone who’s dealing with stress, anxiety, or it takes just forever to fall asleep.
  • Just a nerd :3
    So um
    For everyone who noticed that it’s sped up it’s actually a feature from the settings bye
  • Miathescientist
    Great!
    I always fall asleep in the first 5 minutes.💤This podcast is very boring… perfect for falling asleep, while the ads aren’t AMAZING, you can still skip them, or wait it out. Otherwise, the podcast is great, and will probably get you to sleep faster.😴 Here’s a good, boring, topic:Grass. Just get an article about grass growing, fall right asleep. 🥱
  • TrueCrimeTartare
    Fascinating
    I love this and when I need my true crime fix I like Dead Sleep!
  • FunnyBunnyFooFoo
    Too interesting
    I listened to a few episodes, and it’s TOO INTERESTING! On the bright side it’s quiet and able to keep me asleep
  • DrivinWest
    The ads ruin the whole point of the show
    The topics are great; just fascinating enough to capture my brain’s focus, but not so enthralling as to keep me awake. The voice is good. Not great, but good. The high volume, high pitch, spritely ads just ruin the show. I’m fine with ads. Heck, I’d buy ads spoken by the main dude, but not the outsourced ads on the show.
  • Spark love
    Thanks
    🤔🤣🫶🏼
  • Thisnickname_istaken_
    AI?
    Used to be great. Pretty sure it’s an ai voice now. All robotic and I heard it glitch. Even the descriptions arc ChatGPT. U can tell. I are not fooling anyone I hate how ai is ruining everything.

  • Minah_Bean
    the best!!
    very helpful to get too sleep. i struggle with getting to sleep and finding a good podcast is impossible. this one works amazingly though. definitely recommend!!!
  • mmsplaysgames
    Actually very helpful
    Literally is so good for helping me sleep! There’s a rather annoying but understandable ad break at the beginning, but it is easy to skip over and the rest of the podcast is just perfect! I really enjoy learning these random facts as I drift off to sleep! Thank you so much for this idea!

  • Boo_Bear_27
    I never make it through an episode
    I play this at .75 speed. His calming voice slowed down…every time I put on an episode I think…there’s no way I’ll be able to fall asleep before this is over. I have been wrong 100% of the time. 10/10
  • SKirb2
    My fav podcast
    I have an awful time sleeping, but this podcast is the best I’ve found by far. Would highly recommend to all, was specifically drawn to the Kaladin episode as an avid fan and reader of the Cosmere and Stormlight Archive. Please listen, it’s the best!
  • Mhm pretty awesome sauce
    Yup
    Good falling asleep podcast, some of the reviews are wack though some guy was yappin about water and another was saying brainrot
  • ‘.’zzzzz
    Thank you so much
    I haven’t been able to get the right amount of sleep, but thanks for the for the help. I never thought I’d been able to get that much sleep.12 hours is a lot and I really needed it. Thank you so much..

    To fanum tax a sigma you have to get baby gronk to rizz them or have 1mil aura then get a level 100 gman from skibidi toilet then edge on Kia cenat and call freak bob at 3 am. Why are you still reading (¬‿¬)
  • Bridge_Kid
    Works!!!
    I’ll admit I didn’t think this would work at all. Even after reading some reviews that promised good results, I was very skeptical about it’s ability to actually put me to sleep. Regardless, I went ahead and started listening to the podcast after many other attempts to fall asleep, including using other podcasts and meditations. I listened to one episode, and I don’t remember anything else that happened. I was fast asleep. It worked like a charm, and I’m very impressed with how much it helped me. Overall, you should give this podcast a try, even if you don’t think it will work for you.

    Favorite Puppy
    I can't go to sleep at all but this podcast helped me with that! My autistic brain totally vibes with this so much that I listen to it for fun lol. The title is an inside joke from another podcast if ur curious
  • Knickckick
    Earlier episodes better
    For some reason Benjamin decided to speed up his reads which makes it difficult to drift off. Much prefer 2022 pacing.

    Pseudoscience and Dr Mark Hyman - I just can’t anymore
    So, the Alkaline water was some pseudoscience. If you could change your body’s pH that much you’d be dead. Alkaline water is a scam. Now Dr Mark Hyman? That is just dangerous and irresponsible. I’m done. I can’t listen any longer or promote this to my family, friends, or my students.
  • boomdiggles
    Always helps me sleep
    I would love to hear about dogs.

    😴💤😴💤
    I haven’t listened to an entire episode yet!! A++ podcast.
  • atlyssa
    Same as others… Ads
    I don’t mind podcasts with ads. Advertising here isn’t the issue at all. But yikes the ads are so dang loud and jarring. Other podcasters I listen to do their own ads which would benefit this sleep podcast substantially. I normally don’t write reviews but I really want to give this feedback to the podcaster because I think he has a really great/very successful podcast on his hands if he can fine tune a few things. Wish you the best and hope you find this feedback/rating constructive and useful.

    Echo or dual voice tracks??
    Love this pod, but what's with this new echo/reverb FX or dual voiceover? Has a weird robotic sound on most recent episode and is quite distracting...
  • Sammy135
    Ads wake me up
    Why have a podcast like this with loud ads with music? Why don’t you read your own ads so they don’t jolt your listener awake, the opposite of what you claim to be here to do….

    This podcast helps me sleep and fall asleep fast !!sometime the info is very interesting so I tend to listen longer before falling asleep
  • SleepySwamper
    Ads
    How in good faith do you advertise a sleep podcast with ads?
