Something not high energy, and interesting but not too interesting lol
Examples I’ve been enjoying include 99% Invisible, Ologies, and Common Descent

Fall of Civilization. His voice is absolutely soothing and the topics of how certain people found these lost Civilizations and then how they fell into ruin is super interesting.
Huge +1 to this. Also North 02 on YouTube.

Stuff You Should Know is a podcast by some well-meaning, curious, kind of dumb dudes from Atlanta. Libs but that doesn’t seem to be a disqualifier. Anyways they have very gentle and calm voices and basically have done a straight up book report-style podcast for like fifteen years and have done basically every topic.
They have the right voices to fall asleep to because they never get so excited they change their register and seem to like each other. Kind, friendly energy. It’s also easy to fall asleep to because you don’t have to hang on every word because they usually don’t really know too much about what they’re talking about so it never really matters if you hear the next part because you’d have to fact check it anyways
The History of Rome podcast by Mike Duncan is over a decade (edit: typo) old but it’s ideal for that. He has an incredibly relaxing voice, and even though I’m legitimately interested in Roman history I would find myself drifting off sometimes. The audio quality in the early episodes aren’t great but he gets a better mic later.
Thank you for this post !
Liam screaming incessantly
that’s real music baby
It’s all white noise at the end
I listen to DnD podcasts every single night.
The adventure zone. Dungeons and daddies. Naddpod.
These three have kept my brain occupied and entertained for YEARS.
It’s just frustrating to set a 15 minute timer and have no idea where you fell asleep and what you missed the next day when you press play.
Came here to recommend the same thing. Incredibly relaxing, funny, and wholesome.
Episode 1, every episode is the first episode of a podcast. It’s like 90% improv. Might be my favorite podcast.
I like Hey Riddle Riddle if improv comedy is something you like. Both for falling asleep and listening while awake.
Welcome To Nightvale but with the “weather” and intro-outro edited out
Welcome to nightvale is great but maybe too interesting? It has a plot but I feel like it isn’t that important. You can enjoy it without really following it too much
It usually has a music section which can be a mixed bag in terms of sleep aid. Don’t think it would work.
Oh crap, I forgot about that. Haven’t listened in a while
I usually listen to any podcast with tech bros talking about tech because it is fun enough but completely inconsequential, so I don’t miss anything when I fall asleep. Examples: Accidental Tech Podcast, Upstream, Cortex, Waveform
Not a podcast, but it’s nice, & it works. https://www.radiotunes.com/guitar
