Not sure how much of a thing this is but I like to have shows playing softly while I sleep, what are your shows you like to help you sleep?
Screen off of course
Star Trek Voyager. I was never a fan, but it has soft sounds and the volume never gets too loud unlike a lot of other shows. That said, I’m hoping to find new suggestions here :)
As long as the Clown episode doesn’t come on 😨
I just looked it up. Thanks for warning me!
Used to be Futurama for years and years. Started putting Family Guy, American Dad, Bob’s Burgers, Sponge Bob, and King of the Hill into the mix. Basically anything animated.
Almost any space, or nature documentary. Narration has that soporific element.
Usually space videos on the astrum YouTube channel
I wish South Park would do a Plane’arium ambience video
Futurama or Star Trek TNG.
WW2 war documentaries. For some reason, all the narrators have voices that put me right to sleep.
I can imagine Laurence Olivier in The World At War would be good for this!
Yesssss But just about any history subject works for me.
MST3K or RiffTrax. Takes me back to high school.
DnD podcasts. The Naddpod short rests after each episode specifically. Keeps my brain focused enough to fall asleep and I don’t miss any of the actual storylines!
Anything from RedLetterMedia though I don’t think it’s a good suggestion for others to listen to. Rich Evans’ laugh is a wonderful thing, but it’ll wake you up
Shortish science shows without bullshit with one presenter with a pleasing voice.
Like Dr Becky, PBS Space Time or anything with Harald Lesch.
Cinnamon Toast Ken has been my latest addition. And Papa Meat, but he has a tendency to yell.
I have three go to genres. Old westerns, old martial arts movies, and the old Godzillas. Run them at low volume and off I go…
- robot chicken
- tales from the bus tour
- friends
- archer
I listen to a bunch of movies critics riffing on movies. It’s called adum and pals.
it has a lot of volume changes but it’s been my main sleeping background for so long the screaming that occasionally comes up doesn’t wake me anymore.
Stuff like the Willow or Wheel of Time tv series, I just can’t get into them, they seem sooo dull that I pop off to sleep in under ten minutes.
