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

    Podcasts, all running at 70% speed:

    • The Empty Bowl
    • Sawbones
    • Bake On
    • What Roman Mars Can Learn About Con Law
    • Wait Wait Don’t Tell Me

    Bonus: I created shortcut that runs this playlist, sets the volume low, turns the speed down, and sets a sleep timer. I also have an automation that runs the shortcut whenever my phone connects to my Bluetooth speaker and my phone is in sleep focus.

    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 :)

    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.

    WW2 war documentaries. For some reason, all the narrators have voices that put me right to sleep.

    I hate sleeping with a TV on, and don’t have a TV in my bedroom. But if I can’t sleep I move to the couch and I can’t sleep on the couch if the TV isn’t on. I always put on RedLetterMedia. Specifically I shuffle all of the episodes of Best of the Worst.

    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

    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!

    Trailer Park Boys has a very relaxing theme song. I’ve had many nights watching it where the theme just puts me to sleep and I have to go back multiple episodes to pick the thread back up the next day. It’s not always a calm show but the theme song could open for Bob Ross.

    The Mommy, matrix, scorpion king, Firefly …

    We have a raspberry Pi I rigged up to play just the audio. We control it by our phones or a button attached to the headboard to choose a random one.
