    Almost perfect
    This has been the only podcast to put me to sleep. I’ve tried everything - nature sounds, music, white noise, interviews, and nothing worked like Sleep with Me. Unfortunately, I started to notice this constant repetition of drawn out “uhhh”s or “uhm”s in every other sentence and it’s now become unbearable. Every time I hear it, it jars me out of what was the only peaceful podcast experience I’ve ever had :( But if you can ignore that? This works in the weirdest way.

    Wanted to Hate It But…
    I ran across this podcast as I was looking for a new podcast to listen to while I was falling asleep. I often listen to stories like This American Life or other story-based podcasts, and then I ran across Sleep with Me. The first time I listened to it I thought, Are you kidding me? This is the weirdest thing I’ve ever heard. I didn’t like all the stuttering and all the back-and-forth and the meandering and all so I was set to not like it. But then I woke up the next morning and realized that I hadn’t heard the end of the podcast, so I tried it the next night … and the next and the next and the next, and I know there’s supposed to be a story in there somewhere during this podcast, but I’ve never made it as far as the storytelling part. It works! It puts me out every night.

    Sleep With Me
    This is an absolutely sensational podcast. I am so deeply grateful to “Scoots” and his team for bringing such light into the world. (The good kind of light, not the kind that messes up your circadian rhythm and interferes with sleep 😁). The host’s willingness to show his humanity with self-reflection and a huge dose of self-compassionate humor is beyond endearing: it is magical. Scoots, you are a living example of the vulnerability = courage equation. Some specifics that I love: When you laugh out loud at yourself - “oh boy!” Naming the voices in your head, like Travey, the trip worrier The imaginary interviews between you and outside critics. Really I love the whole thing. And I am usually one of the 2% that enjoys and then falls asleep during the end of the introduction. Scoots you are a creative, compassionate genius. I thank you and your team for making the world a better place. Everyone should support this show!

    Knock out! Literally!
    I go to sleep within minutes thanks to this guy, after years of anguish. This podcast is worth multiple tries. Best long term impact.

    ⚡️✨Official seal of approval ✨⚡️
    Hello MAH name is Denki and I approve sleep with me bc like 10 min in I’m out and the mandalorian episodes are really good (btw If I spelled mandalorian wrong sorry my grammar is bad)
  • bonifabulous the first
    Meh…
    If listening to a guy with a grainy voice drone on about mindless stuff puts you to sleep, this is your jam.

    I’m I am an original subscriber since 2010. Scooter is my borefriend. I messed up my transition to the new feed to list my Patreon account info. I’m back!!!

    Pure joy
    This podcast brings me so much joy there aren’t even words. I am so grateful for this podcast. I can sleep and I am usually chuckling as I drift off. Thank you!
  • iwanttogotothebonezonewithbenz
    So soothing
    Just like millions of others, this took me a few tries to get into, but now it’s PERFECT! I struggle with a racing mind at night and this is just the thing to distract me and keep me company while I drift off. TRY IT!
  • Ctoll88
    Thanks Scooter
    This is exactly what I never knew I needed to fall asleep. New episode artwork is looking really nice too!
  • Hannah_solow
    Shuts my brain up
    This podcast mimics the style of my thoughts but in a sleepy, uninteresting way so that I don’t have to follow the thread of my own racing thoughts during bedtime. I appreciate not feeling the pressure to hear what’s next and just letting Scooter talk me to sleep 😴
  • memenemeemememme
    So boring
    I have never fallen asleep faster to anything but my teachers talking.
  • jkjsmom
    I’m hooked
    Every night I listen to this podcast and it has helped me fall asleep like no other podcast. I love it.
  • rosesandwhiskers
    Get to the point
    It takes forever to get to the actual topic. Ugh.
  • antb1996
    I don’t really get the appeal
    Sounds like my schizophrenic uncle ranting uncontrollably. More likely to give you anxiety rather than a good nights rest
  • kfly_18
    I’ve never made it past the intro
    I’ve been listening on and off for years. I have nothing to report to you about the content of this show.. because I’ve never made it past the 10 minute mark… and that should tell you everything you need to know, shouldn’t it?
  • Mamacita Flaca
    I was skeptical at first.
    This is my “go to podcast” when I have a hard time falling asleep. There’s something special about Scoooter’s voice that just makes you melt right into your cozy bed. I’ve listened to the Great Pumpkin~Charlie Brown episode at least five times. I smile as I fall asleep.
  • JPppppfdhrg
    For some reason, it works!
    We want more 80s catalog episodes!!
  • Link’s biggest fan
    Awesome podcast
    I could not sleep until I started listening to this podcast. I love it
  • SnaggleDaggle
    Works every single time
    I have no idea how, but Scooter is amazing at what he does. I really thought in the first 2 seconds that there was no way I could sleep to this... I gave it a try anyway. I soon realized that it was actually magic and puts me to sleep rather quickly every single night. I’ve never finished an episode. The topics are so bizarre and he is pretty hilarious, I literally giggle right into dream land! I highly recommend this podcast to everyone! Skip the first 30 min of the intro. It gets redundant, but I get why he does it. I head straight into the story and usually within 10-15 min, I’m asleep!
  • nicknamesssss
    Frustrating
    It works, but there are ads in the middle of the content that have a louder and different tone than the rest of the podcast. Why was I just woken up 28 minutes into the podcast by a very loud car insurance ad read? I don’t mind ads at the beginning or in the same tone as the rest of the podcast, but if the podcast is supposed to be to help you fall asleep, why have parts that are designed to wake you up?
  • Suzy4toes
    The only way I can sleep..
    Look, I get it’s not for everyone, but it’s the only way I can shut my mind off in the best way. If you have an over active brain, give this a try. So grateful for this podcast!!
  • ultramaryne
    Loud energetic ads - totally counterproductive
    I’m 100% in support of creators monetizing their content, but there’s no way I’m going to listen to 20+ minutes of intro that winds you up instead of calming you down.
  • SarahRuthB
    Love love love
    Not only do I listen every night, I recommend to my therapy clients also! Thank you!!
  • OhSoAwesome
    My go to sleep aid
    It’s different for everyone, but personally I try to focus completely on the story, and even try to visualize it. The story is so chaotic my brain can’t keep up, and it isn’t interesting enough to even try. I don’t think I’ve made it through a episode when nothing else helped.
  • Lexie Mo Mexie
    Insomniac Highly Recommends!
    This podcast is honestly the only one I have discovered that will get me back to sleep 😴 in the most helpful way. I was a little skeptical initially, but so appreciated the disclaimer and was beyond pleasantly surprised when it worked for me. It helps soothe me back to sleep after I inevitably wake up most nights at 3 am and can’t fall back asleep on my own. Thank you for this podcast!
  • Sofia Davenport
    Works every time!
    Who knew boring could be so much fun? On the nights when this podcast doesn’t drop me like a tranquilizer dart, I enjoy the observations and humor that closely mirrors my own. Thank you, Scoots! #IFeelSeen
  • miss_gulia
    Super relaxing and helpful👍🏼
    Going to sleep has never been easier. This podcast is wonderfully boring and has me drifting off in just minutes. It has been so helpful over the years and I don’t know how I managed without it. Thx Scooter😴
  • Pelsmith
    This review is long overdue
    When I was a night shift nurse in a city hospital my ability to sleep was very important. I would sometimes come home after a traumatic event and know that I would not be able to sleep -that I would be replaying the event over and over in my mind. If you’ve never been there, you just can’t comprehend the horror of going in to work a busy nursing floor when you have gotten no sleep. Then I found Sleep With Me. He is very good at pulling me out of my own head. He will say something interesting so I listen, but then he didn’t finish his thought, and the ideas go nowhere, and it adds up to nothing, and off to sleep I go. I don’t want to be too dramatic, but during that time in my life, I believe Sleep With Me might have actually saved lives. Anyway, I’m a day shifter in a much lies stressful job now. But I remember when I needed help, Scoots was there. Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, and friends beyond the binary, it’s time for Sleep With Me, the podcast, that puts you, to sleep…

    Puts me right to sleep every time
    I found this podcast years ago when I went through an insomnia period and nothing I usually did would put me to sleep. I somehow found it by the “after the glass slipper” video on YouTube and that story was just so interesting, I was able to imagine it and sadly fall asleep (I still occasionally go back to it so I can listen because it is my absolute favorite story and will sometimes hear more than I’ve heard before lol). But now, his intros are so boring, I turn it on and somehow wake up in the morning, not even remembering falling asleep. Some are interesting, but the point of the podcast is to put you to sleep and that’s exactly what it does for me. Also, there aren’t any loud random ads in the middle you have to wake up and skip. Overall, I love this podcast, it’s my favorite to sleep to. I will forever be grateful to have found it when I needed it most.
  • Secretslasher

  • Andrew311
    5 stars!
    I love this podcast so much! It puts me to sleep every night. Bedtime used to be torture until I started listening to this podcast. :)
  • AlejandraEstrella
    love this podcast
    i use this podcast mainly for background noise purposes. i liked falling asleep with the tv playing, but the bright light from the screen always kept me up. this podcast gives me the audio/background noise of a show without the bright light/screen. i never really listen to what he says (seriously, i have know idea what he talks about lol), but just hearing his rambling voice is enough to keep my mind from racing with my own thoughts and puts me to sleep faster. 😴
  • Mother Of Hope
    Nope
    Dreadful vocal tone that positively grates. He jabbers about pure nonsense for thirty plus minutes and it’s not at all restful or soothing.
  • hnickel
    Give Scoot a Chance
    Life long insomniac, this is one of the only things that has helped me rest when I just can’t. Soothing is putting it mildly. Truly a masterfully crafted rambling to keep me company while I find sleep. The subscription is more than worth it!
  • Dahners23
    You need sleep? Pay for it
    I can’t explain how mesmerizing this man’s ramblings are. Scoots needs to make a living and I need to sleep. Hand shake. I pay 5$ for a service that far surpasses expectations. I couldn’t do it with the ads, so If this is a priority pay for it. I fall asleep without my own mind controlling the narrative. I don’t lie awake screaming in my own mind. Sometimes I wake up mid- night with soft ramblings of a glow worm that costs 11.99 from 1988, and I drift back into oblivion. Scoots is actually so unintentionally and sometimes intentionally hilarious- it makes the awake moments worth it. If you truly want to sleep, and escape your own mind this is it. He is daddy sleep. Can’t wait to drift away. Thank you
  • jmelendez!
    Please chill out with the uhhhhhs
    Love this pod but the over use of uhhhhs with vocal fry just drive me bananas . It seems to be happening more and more
  • shoniej74
    Great sleep podcast
    I took a few times to get it but when I did It worked. I don’t have trouble falling asleep but I wake up and sometimes can’t get back to sleep. This mis my go to podcast when that happens. The subscription is so worth it. 😊💤😴
  • SubtoTSGYT
    How is this supposed to make you fall asleep?!?!?
    I tried it and at first you just talked for like ten minuets in the beginning and then I was like when is this gonna start?!?!?! So I skipped to halfway it it’s like that THE WHOLE TIME I THOUGHT YOU SAID OT WAS A BEDTIME STORY NOT A LECTURE ABOUT LIFE OR SOMETHING IDK I WASNT RLY LISTENING ITS SOO BORING IT JUSY MAKES ME MORE AWAKE CUZ OM LISTENING TO TPGUY TAKING UP A STORM WHEN IM EXPECTING SOME MPCAL MUSIC WITH LITTLE COMMENTARY. (Be more like little stories for tiny people).
  • Scroll Gates
    This is some kind of dark magic
    I don’t understand how this works but I fall asleep in an average of 1-2 minutes. This shouldn’t be possible.
  • strokleður
    nice
    Can you make it so kids can also listen to it please.(:
  • karlakalabasa
    My favorite
    The only sleep podcast that works
  • Autumn-daze
    Someone who understands
    I had given up on sleep aid type podcasts and thought I just had to be too outside the norm to benefit from one. But Scooter and the Sleep With Me podcast have become my routine and I really struggle if I don’t listen every night. I support as a patron to help others who can’t, and to support the longevity of the production. Think about being a patron. Even the 5 dollar patrons get extra content and that’s only 60 bucks a year. I do the yearly instead of monthly pay option. Less to think about and helps Scoots on long range planning. I’m much a loner and feel I have a friend who understands us insomniacs. I think Scoots is one of the most creative , ingenious producers of content that is out there. Thanks Drew/Scoots.
  • Tom--wg
    Worth the subscription
    I subscribed because I value the product. The added content and flow of the podcasts make it worth every penny.
  • #Game Reviewer 2710

  • AnnEBP5
    Best ever
    The first few times I listened to this I thought “there is no way I’m falling asleep to this hyper man’s voice , no matter what the story”. I can tell you now, that I have listened to over 40 of these episodes and never once have I gotten to the “story”. I swear there is no story and it’s all introduction. I have literally only heard him talk about what the story is gonna be about. I have NEVER heard the “story”. It’s amazing! Best way to turn my mind off ever!!! AMAZING! I love this!!!
  • Earl From NY
    The Ideas A good one
    Thank s for trying but even though the voice and story are supposed to be super boring I can’t fall asleep until it’s over cause my mind can’t sleep until the story ends
