Let the details wash over you… a soothing balm for a restless mind.”&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Find &lt;strong&gt;Memoirs of Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds by Charles Mackay&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&#34;https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/24518&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/24518&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Supporting Sleepy Time Tales&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you would like to support my work and help keep the podcast available and for free, there are several ways you can support the show.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;·        You can support the show as a supporter on Patreon and receive a host of bonuses including Patron only episodes and special edits &lt;a href=&#34;https://www.patreon.com/sleepytimetales&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;https://www.patreon.com/sleepytimetales&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;·        If you’re enjoying Sleepy Time Tales and would like to make a financial contribution, but would rather not commit to a monthly payment then you can throw a tip in the jar at &lt;a href=&#34;https://ko-fi.com/sleepytimetales&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;https://ko-fi.com/sleepytimetales&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Patreon&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Sleep Tight Patrons&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Jess&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Chuck&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Mysti&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Roberta&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Traci&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Moya&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Sandra&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Carla&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Joseph&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;AY&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Amy&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Jacque&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Abbie&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Gina&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Christyne&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Please Share&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you’re enjoying the show, and finding it helps you sleep despite the stresses and strains of your life, the absolute best thing you can do is share it with your friends, families, acquaintances, cellmates etc. Anyone who needs a good night’s sleep might benefit.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So please share it with the people in your life, whether in person or on social media.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Find The Show&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;Website: &lt;a href=&#34;https://sleepytimetales.net/&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;https://sleepytimetales.net/&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Patreon: &lt;a href=&#34;https://www.patreon.com/sleepytimetales&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;https://www.patreon.com/sleepytimetales&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Facebook: &lt;a href=&#34;https://www.facebook.com/sleepytimetalespodcast/&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;https://www.facebook.com/sleepytimetalespodcast/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;YouTube: &lt;a href=&#34;https://www.youtube.com/c/SleepyTimeTales&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;https://www.youtube.com/c/SleepyTimeTales&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Merch: &lt;a href=&#34;https://sleepy-time-tales.dashery.com/&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;https://sleepy-time-tales.dashery.com/&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Project Gutenberg Terms of Use&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&#34;https://www.gutenberg.org/wiki/Gutenberg:Terms_of_Use&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;https://www.gutenberg.org/wiki/Gutenberg:Terms_of_Use&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;*Description is written by an LLM*&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>

Sleep well, and may fortune guide your rest.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Story (01:09)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Find &lt;strong&gt;Bellarion the Fortunate : a romance by Rafael Sabatini&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&#34;https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/68411&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/68411&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Supporting Sleepy Time Tales&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you would like to support my work and help keep the podcast available and for free, there are several ways you can support the show.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;·        You can support the show as a supporter on Patreon and receive a host of bonuses including Patron only episodes and special edits &lt;a href=&#34;https://www.patreon.com/sleepytimetales&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;https://www.patreon.com/sleepytimetales&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;·        If you’re enjoying Sleepy Time Tales and would like to make a financial contribution, but would rather not commit to a monthly payment then you can throw a tip in the jar at &lt;a href=&#34;https://ko-fi.com/sleepytimetales&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;https://ko-fi.com/sleepytimetales&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Patreon&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Sleep Tight Patrons&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Jess&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Chris &amp;amp; Moya&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Chuck&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Mysti&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Roberta&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Charity&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Traci&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Moya&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Sandra&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Carla&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Joseph&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;AY&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Amy&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Jacque&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Abbie&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Gina&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Please Share&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you’re enjoying the show, and finding it helps you sleep despite the stresses and strains of your life, the absolute best thing you can do is share it with your friends, families, acquaintances, cellmates etc. Anyone who needs a good night’s sleep might benefit.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So please share it with the people in your life, whether in person or on social media.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Find The Show&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;Website: &lt;a href=&#34;https://sleepytimetales.net/&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;https://sleepytimetales.net/&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Patreon: &lt;a href=&#34;https://www.patreon.com/sleepytimetales&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;https://www.patreon.com/sleepytimetales&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Facebook: &lt;a href=&#34;https://www.facebook.com/sleepytimetalespodcast/&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;https://www.facebook.com/sleepytimetalespodcast/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;YouTube: &lt;a href=&#34;https://www.youtube.com/c/SleepyTimeTales&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;https://www.youtube.com/c/SleepyTimeTales&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Merch: &lt;a href=&#34;https://sleepy-time-tales.dashery.com/&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;https://sleepy-time-tales.dashery.com/&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Project Gutenberg Terms of Use&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&#34;https://www.gutenberg.org/wiki/Gutenberg:Terms_of_Use&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;https://www.gutenberg.org/wiki/Gutenberg:Terms_of_Use&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>

This episode features a particularly unexciting reading from Samuel Sidney&#39;s <em>Rides on Railways</em>, where we meander through endless details about engine repairs, rivet counts, and the thrilling scenery of Wolverton&#39;s railway workshops.</p><p> Imagine the most monotonous train journey you&#39;ve ever taken - the kind where the rhythmic clatter of wheels lulls you into a stupor. That&#39;s what this is, but without any risk of missing your stop.

                <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;🎙️ Sleepy Time Podcast: The Great Gatsby – Chapter 5 (Gatsby Reunites with Daisy) | Boring Bedtime Stories to Help You Sleep 😴&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Story (02:44) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Struggling to fall asleep? Let the soothing, monotonous reading of &lt;em&gt;The Great Gatsby&lt;/em&gt; lull you into a deep slumber. This podcast is intentionally slow, calm, and yes—even boring—to help quiet your mind and ease you into sleep. No dramatic voices, no sudden sounds, just a gentle, uninterrupted reading of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s classic novel.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;📖 &lt;strong&gt;Tonight’s Sleep-Inducing Episode:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In this chapter, Gatsby nervously asks Nick to arrange a meeting with Daisy, his long-lost love. Will their reunion be everything he dreamed? Honestly, it doesn’t matter—because the real goal here is to bore you to sleep.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;✨ &lt;strong&gt;Why Listen?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;✅ Soft, even narration&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;✅ No loud or jarring sounds&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;✅ A familiar, slow-paced story to distract your busy mind&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;✅ Perfect for insomnia, relaxation, or background noise&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Close your eyes, relax, and let the words drift over you.

Sweet dreams.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Story (02:45) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Find &lt;strong&gt;Night and Day by Virginia Woolf&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&#34;https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/1245&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/1245&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Supporting Sleepy Time Tales&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you would like to support my work and help keep the podcast available and for free, there are several ways you can support the show.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;·        You can support the show as a supporter on Patreon and receive a host of bonuses including Patron only episodes and special edits &lt;a href=&#34;https://www.patreon.com/sleepytimetales&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;https://www.patreon.com/sleepytimetales&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;·        If you’re enjoying Sleepy Time Tales and would like to make a financial contribution, but would rather not commit to a monthly payment then you can throw a tip in the jar at &lt;a href=&#34;https://paypal.me/sleepytimetales?locale.x=en_US&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;paypal.me/sleepytimetales&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Patreon&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Sleep Tight Patrons&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Jess&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Chris &amp;amp; Moya&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Chuck&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Mysti&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Roberta&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Charity&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Traci&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Emily&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Moya&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Brian&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Sandra&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Carla&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Joseph&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;AY&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Greg&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Please Share&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you’re enjoying the show, and finding it helps you sleep despite the stresses and strains of your life, the absolute best thing you can do is share it with your friends, families, acquaintances, cellmates etc. Anyone who needs a good night’s sleep might benefit.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So please share it with the people in your life, whether in person or on social media.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt; &lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Find The Show&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;Website: &lt;a href=&#34;https://sleepytimetales.net/&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;https://sleepytimetales.net/&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Patreon: &lt;a href=&#34;https://www.patreon.com/sleepytimetales&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;https://www.patreon.com/sleepytimetales&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Facebook: &lt;a href=&#34;https://www.facebook.com/sleepytimetalespodcast/&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;https://www.facebook.com/sleepytimetalespodcast/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;YouTube: &lt;a href=&#34;https://www.youtube.com/c/SleepyTimeTales&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;https://www.youtube.com/c/SleepyTimeTales&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Merch: &lt;a href=&#34;https://www.teepublic.com/?ref_id=25247&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;https://www.teepublic.com/?ref_id=25247&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Project Gutenberg Terms of Use&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&#34;https://www.gutenberg.org/wiki/Gutenberg:Terms_of_Use&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;https://www.gutenberg.org/wiki/Gutenberg:Terms_of_Use&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>

                <itunes:summary>&lt;p class=&#34;Standard&#34;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Hi friends. Unfortunately my chest and voice are still wrecked from having the flu so I can’t record anything that people would want to listen to. So here’s the second part of 2023’s Halloween reading.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class=&#34;Standard&#34;&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class=&#34;Standard&#34;&gt;Be warned that traditional Halloween traditions may be a bit disturbing, but I left out the nasty stuff.

&lt;span style=&#34;font-family: &#39;Calibri&#39;,sans-serif;&#34;&gt;We also finish off with a few fun traditions of regions like Brittany as we say goodbye to this particular book.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

                <description><![CDATA[<p> <span> The Elements of Geology by William Harmon Norton</span></p> <p> <span> For this week’s sleepy story we return to the popular Elements of Geology. Learning about the formation of rivers valleys and geological deposits will definitely not keep your attention as you lie down to sleep.</span></p> <p> <span> I recorded this yesterday and I can barely remember the specifics, but learn about how deposits form the curves in rivers, salt lakes and many other geological features.</span></p> <p> <span>Story (03:04)</span></p> <h2>SleepPhones, our perfect partnership</h2> <p><span>In our experience the best way to experience the bedtime stories of Sleepy Time Tales is with some type of headphone or earbud, but they can be cumbersome and uncomfortable.</span></p> <p><span>So we’ve partnered SleepPhones, manufacturers of headphones designed specifically to sleep in!

                <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt; The Elements of Geology by William Harmon Norton&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt; For this week’s sleepy story we return to the popular Elements of Geology. Learning about the formation of rivers valleys and geological deposits will definitely not keep your attention as you lie down to sleep.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt; I recorded this yesterday and I can barely remember the specifics, but learn about how deposits form the curves in rivers, salt lakes and many other geological features.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt;Story (03:04)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h2&gt;SleepPhones, our perfect partnership&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;In our experience the best way to experience the bedtime stories of Sleepy Time Tales is with some type of headphone or earbud, but they can be cumbersome and uncomfortable.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;So we’ve partnered SleepPhones, manufacturers of headphones designed specifically to sleep in! They use a thin speaker fitted to a comfortable headband and have options from the cost effective wired headphones to the convenient Bluetooth model and will work with Sleepy Time Tales to improve your night’s sleep.

There is much joy and excitement as they plan their futures and Jo looks forward to being able to support her family.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt; But their father’s overdue letter is replaced by an ominous telegram and the joy is replaced by concern&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt;Story (02:55) &lt;br/&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h2&gt;SleepPhones, our perfect partnership&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;In our experience the best way to experience the bedtime stories of Sleepy Time Tales is with some type of headphone or earbud, but they can be cumbersome and uncomfortable.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;So we’ve partnered SleepPhones, manufacturers of headphones designed specifically to sleep in!

                <description><![CDATA[<h2>Mysterious Strangers and Bear Men Will Carry You To Sleep</h2> <p> <span> The Wood Beyond the World by William Morris</span></p> <p> <span> In tonight’s story intended to help you sleep Golden Walther continues his voyage after leaving his unfaithful wife in search of mystery. We ended last time with him lost in a storm, but now the storm has abated, and they’ve seen land.</span></p> <p> <span> They get to where they were going to find one man, living alone, whose stories of the mysterious and brutal bear men pique Walther’s curiosity. So, Walther decides to follow his sense of adventure.</span></p> <p> <span> His adventuring spirit won’t be enough to keep you awake though.</span></p> <p> <span>Story (03:21)</span></p> <h2>SleepPhones, our perfect partnership</h2> <p><span>In our experience the best way to experience the bedtime stories of Sleepy Time Tales is with some type of headphone or earbud, but they can be cumbersome and uncomfortable.</span></p> <p><span>So we’ve partnered SleepPhones, manufacturers of headphones designed specifically to sleep in!

                <content:encoded>&lt;h2&gt;Mysterious Strangers and Bear Men Will Carry You To Sleep&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt; The Wood Beyond the World by William Morris&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt; In tonight’s story intended to help you sleep Golden Walther continues his voyage after leaving his unfaithful wife in search of mystery. We ended last time with him lost in a storm, but now the storm has abated, and they’ve seen land.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt; They get to where they were going to find one man, living alone, whose stories of the mysterious and brutal bear men pique Walther’s curiosity. So, Walther decides to follow his sense of adventure.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt; His adventuring spirit won’t be enough to keep you awake though.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt;Story (03:21)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h2&gt;SleepPhones, our perfect partnership&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;In our experience the best way to experience the bedtime stories of Sleepy Time Tales is with some type of headphone or earbud, but they can be cumbersome and uncomfortable.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;So we’ve partnered SleepPhones, manufacturers of headphones designed specifically to sleep in!

                <description><![CDATA[<h3>Astronomy: The Science of the Heavenly Bodies by David P. Todd</h3> <p> <span> This is a relaxing but fascinating read. As an astronomy book published in 1922 it’s fascinating how much was know about the Universe, but while they had discovered galaxies they still believed they were a type of nebula and were still theorising about what they were.</span></p> <p> <span> But learn about how relative motion of the starts were known, how to detect binary stars and about transits of heavenly bodies. And so much more.</span></p> <p> <span> Fascinating stuff, but I won’t be keeping you awake.

                <content:encoded>&lt;h3&gt;Astronomy: The Science of the Heavenly Bodies by David P. Todd&lt;/h3&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt; This is a relaxing but fascinating read. As an astronomy book published in 1922 it’s fascinating how much was know about the Universe, but while they had discovered galaxies they still believed they were a type of nebula and were still theorising about what they were.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt; But learn about how relative motion of the starts were known, how to detect binary stars and about transits of heavenly bodies. And so much more.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt; Fascinating stuff, but I won’t be keeping you awake. My delivery is sure to help you sleep.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt;Story (02:54) &lt;br/&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h2&gt;SleepPhones, our perfect partnership&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;In our experience the best way to experience the bedtime stories of Sleepy Time Tales is with some type of headphone or earbud, but they can be cumbersome and uncomfortable.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;So we’ve partnered SleepPhones, manufacturers of headphones designed specifically to sleep in!

In the long winded and rather boring discussion of justice and injustice, the just and the unjust and which is better for society.</span></p> <p> <span>It’s full of confusing, circular arguments and very boring, so I’m sure this will help you sleep.</span></p> <p> <span>Story (02:55)</span></p> <h2>SleepPhones, our perfect partnership</h2> <p><span>In our experience the best way to experience the bedtime stories of Sleepy Time Tales is with some type of headphone or earbud, but they can be cumbersome and uncomfortable.</span></p> <p><span>So we’ve partnered SleepPhones, manufacturers of headphones designed specifically to sleep in!

                <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt; &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;  T&lt;/span&gt;he Republic by Plato&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt;We return again to the rhetoric and philosophy of Plato and pick up where we left off. In the long winded and rather boring discussion of justice and injustice, the just and the unjust and which is better for society.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt;It’s full of confusing, circular arguments and very boring, so I’m sure this will help you sleep.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt;Story (02:55)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h2&gt;SleepPhones, our perfect partnership&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;In our experience the best way to experience the bedtime stories of Sleepy Time Tales is with some type of headphone or earbud, but they can be cumbersome and uncomfortable.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;So we’ve partnered SleepPhones, manufacturers of headphones designed specifically to sleep in!

                <description><![CDATA[<p> <span> A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens</span></p> <p> <span>We pick up on this year’s bedtime edition of A Christmas Carol with Scrooge in the company of the Ghost of Christmas Present and watching the festive activities of the Cratchit family.</span></p> <p> <span>Scrooge finds his heart-strings tugged by the plight of Tiny Tim, and then finds himself flying to observe many other poor folks making the best of their Christmas. And this includes the family of his nephew.</span></p> <p> <span>A lot seems to be happening, but I’m sure you’ll find yourself fast asleep in short order.</span></p> <p> <span>Story (02:54) <br/></span></p> <h2>SleepPhones, our perfect partnership</h2> <p><span>In our experience the best way to experience the bedtime stories of Sleepy Time Tales is with some type of headphone or earbud, but they can be cumbersome and uncomfortable.</span></p> <p><span>So we’ve partnered SleepPhones, manufacturers of headphones designed specifically to sleep in!

                <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt; A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt;We pick up on this year’s bedtime edition of A Christmas Carol with Scrooge in the company of the Ghost of Christmas Present and watching the festive activities of the Cratchit family.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt;Scrooge finds his heart-strings tugged by the plight of Tiny Tim, and then finds himself flying to observe many other poor folks making the best of their Christmas. And this includes the family of his nephew.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt;A lot seems to be happening, but I’m sure you’ll find yourself fast asleep in short order.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt;Story (02:54) &lt;br/&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h2&gt;SleepPhones, our perfect partnership&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;In our experience the best way to experience the bedtime stories of Sleepy Time Tales is with some type of headphone or earbud, but they can be cumbersome and uncomfortable.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;So we’ve partnered SleepPhones, manufacturers of headphones designed specifically to sleep in!

Frank Baum</span></p> <p> <span>We continue L Frank Baum’s fables of the beginnings of Santa Claus and Christmas traditions.

It’s a real web of language and frankly, I don’t know what I read in any of this.

                <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;Embark on a tranquil journey with our soothing podcast, where we delve into the pages of a timeless historical novel. Join our protagonist as he ventures beyond the monastery of his upbringing, seeking knowledge and wisdom.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt;A brief detour leads him into the serene embrace of a forest, where an unexpected encounter with a wandering friar unfolds. Yet, amidst the mystery and tension woven into this tale, rest assured, our gentle narration will guide you into a peaceful slumber before you know it.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt;Let the whispers of the story lull you into a restful night&amp;#39;s sleep.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt;Story (03:25)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h2&gt;SleepPhones, our exciting partnership&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;In our experience the best way to experience the bedtime stories of Sleepy Time Tales is with some type of headphone or earbud, but they can be cumbersome and uncomfortable.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;So we’ve partnered SleepPhones, manufacturers of headphones designed specifically to sleep in! They use a thin speaker fitted to a comfortable headband and have options from the cost effective wired headphones to the convenient Bluetooth model and will work with Sleepy Time Tales to improve your night’s sleep.

They use a thin speaker fitted to a comfortable headband and have options from the cost effective wired headphones to the convenient Bluetooth model and will work with Sleepy Time Tales to improve your night’s sleep.

                <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt;In this new selection we learn of many of the people I’m sure we’ll get to know in Anne of Green Gables. It’s a strange story, apparently people just used to bring orphans home to bring up and put to work?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt;But it doesn’t seem sinister, just odd, so it won’t stress you out and prevent you from falling asleep as we meet the varied cast of characters.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt;Story (03:35) &lt;br/&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h2&gt;SleepPhones, our exciting partnership&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;In our experience the best way to experience the bedtime stories of Sleepy Time Tales is with some type of headphone or earbud, but they can be cumbersome and uncomfortable.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;So we’ve partnered SleepPhones, manufacturers of headphones designed specifically to sleep in! They use a thin speaker fitted to a comfortable headband and have options from the cost effective wired headphones to the convenient Bluetooth model and will work with Sleepy Time Tales to improve your night’s sleep.

                <description><![CDATA[<p><span>  </span><span>A bit of a dark story from famed fantasist and progenitor of modern fantasy Lord Dunsany. Dunsany’s speciality was writing stories that felt like ‘real’ myths from a forgotten time in our world and this is no exception. The story of a great city, whose greatness and the warriors that led to it was in the past. And the challenges that arise from that.</span></p> <p> <span>This one does get a bit exciting, but the cadence is mysterious so I’m sure you will fall asleep before the exciting bit arrive. And those are only relative anyway.</span></p> <p> <span>Story (03:03) <br/></span></p> <h2>SleepPhones, our exciting partnership</h2> <p><span>In our experience the best way to experience the bedtime stories of Sleepy Time Tales is with some type of headphone or earbud, but they can be cumbersome and uncomfortable.</span></p> <p><span>So we’ve partnered SleepPhones, manufacturers of headphones designed specifically to sleep in!

                <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;A bit of a dark story from famed fantasist and progenitor of modern fantasy Lord Dunsany. Dunsany’s speciality was writing stories that felt like ‘real’ myths from a forgotten time in our world and this is no exception. The story of a great city, whose greatness and the warriors that led to it was in the past. And the challenges that arise from that.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt;This one does get a bit exciting, but the cadence is mysterious so I’m sure you will fall asleep before the exciting bit arrive. And those are only relative anyway.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt;Story (03:03) &lt;br/&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h2&gt;SleepPhones, our exciting partnership&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;In our experience the best way to experience the bedtime stories of Sleepy Time Tales is with some type of headphone or earbud, but they can be cumbersome and uncomfortable.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;So we’ve partnered SleepPhones, manufacturers of headphones designed specifically to sleep in!

This spooky episode shouldn’t leave you sleepless.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt;Learn some of the traditions and tales of continental Europe, including the surprising revelation that Britain was considered to be the ‘Land of the Dead’ by communities on the Channel coast of France. As the mysterious land they could see on clear days was otherwise unknown to them.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt;Learn about how pagan traditions became ‘evil’ and which ones were adopted by Christianity.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt;Story (03:33)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h2&gt;Need help with a Podcast?&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Do you want to start a podcast and you’d like some help with the fiddly tasks and processes?

Our protagonist is jealous as the new King is engaged wto the woman the protagonist loves, but is himself in love with someone else.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;A weird mysterious story that goes places, but never gets too exciting so this will help you get a good night’s sleep&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt;Story (03:31)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h2&gt;SleepPhones, our exciting partnership&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;In our experience the best way to experience the bedtime stories of Sleepy Time Tales is with some type of headphone or earbud, but they can be cumbersome and uncomfortable.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;So we’ve partnered SleepPhones, manufacturers of headphones designed specifically to sleep in! They use a thin speaker fitted to a comfortable headband and have options from the cost effective wired headphones to the convenient Bluetooth model and will work with Sleepy Time Tales to improve your night’s sleep.

                <description><![CDATA[<p> <span> REMIX</span></p> <p> <span> Household Science in Rural Schools.</span></p> <p> <span>Hey friends, so sadly I’ve been fairly ill the last week or so. I’ve been completely unable to record as my voice is wrecked. But I don’t want to leave you hanging so I’ve gone back to the archives and pulled this popular boring episode out of May 2021.</span></p> <p> <span>I’ve decided to take this opportunity to reset how I do the podcast, so for the rest of September I will be digging in the archives as I start to do some pre-emptive recording so that I don’t get caught unawares and unprepared in the future.</span></p> <p>Apologies for something with very traditional gender roles baked in, but this is an interesting mix of stunningly boring and good advice for everyone trying to keep house. Even if the advice on how to maintain a coal stove isn’t exactly pertinent.</p> <p> </p> <p>But hey, at least you’ll get a good night’s rest.</p> <p> <span>Story (03:19) <br/></span></p> <h2>Need help with a Podcast?</h2> <p><span>Do you want to start a podcast and you’d like some help with the fiddly tasks and processes? And would you like some help to ensure your podcast is the highest possible quality.</span></p> <p><span>I do podcast admin and editing. Before you do anything, get hold of me and let’s chat about how I can make your podcasting journey as smooth as possible.</span></p> <p><span>Drop me a line at</span> <a href="mailto:dave@brightvoxaudio.com" rel="nofollow"><span>dave@brightvoxaudio.com</span></a> <span>or check out my site at</span> <a href="https://brightvoxaudio.com/" rel="nofollow"><span>https://brightvoxaudio.com/</span></a></p> <p><strong><span>Episode edits start at $15! So it’s crazy good value</span></strong></p> <h2>SleepPhones, our exciting new partnership</h2> <p><span>In our experience the best way to experience the bedtime stories of Sleepy Time Tales is with some type of headphone or earbud, but they can be cumbersome and uncomfortable.</span></p> <p><span>So we’ve partnered SleepPhones, manufacturers of headphones designed specifically to sleep in! They use a thin speaker fitted to a comfortable headband and have options from the cost effective wired headphones to the convenient Bluetooth model and will work with Sleepy Time Tales to improve your night’s sleep.

But I don’t want to leave you hanging so I’ve gone back to the archives and pulled this popular boring episode out of May 2021.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt;I’ve decided to take this opportunity to reset how I do the podcast, so for the rest of September I will be digging in the archives as I start to do some pre-emptive recording so that I don’t get caught unawares and unprepared in the future.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Apologies for something with very traditional gender roles baked in, but this is an interesting mix of stunningly boring and good advice for everyone trying to keep house. Even if the advice on how to maintain a coal stove isn’t exactly pertinent.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;But hey, at least you’ll get a good night’s rest.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt;Story (03:19) &lt;br/&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h2&gt;Need help with a Podcast?&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Do you want to start a podcast and you’d like some help with the fiddly tasks and processes? And would you like some help to ensure your podcast is the highest possible quality.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;I do podcast admin and editing. Before you do anything, get hold of me and let’s chat about how I can make your podcasting journey as smooth as possible.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Drop me a line at&lt;/span&gt; &lt;a href=&#34;mailto:dave@brightvoxaudio.com&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;&lt;span&gt;dave@brightvoxaudio.com&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;span&gt;or check out my site at&lt;/span&gt; &lt;a href=&#34;https://brightvoxaudio.com/&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;&lt;span&gt;https://brightvoxaudio.com/&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span&gt;Episode edits start at $15! So it’s crazy good value&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h2&gt;SleepPhones, our exciting new partnership&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;In our experience the best way to experience the bedtime stories of Sleepy Time Tales is with some type of headphone or earbud, but they can be cumbersome and uncomfortable.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;So we’ve partnered SleepPhones, manufacturers of headphones designed specifically to sleep in! They use a thin speaker fitted to a comfortable headband and have options from the cost effective wired headphones to the convenient Bluetooth model and will work with Sleepy Time Tales to improve your night’s sleep.

                <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt; REMIX&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt; Learning about mail administration in Canada and Britain is likely to help you sleep.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt;Hey friends, so sadly I’ve been fairly ill the last week or so. I’ve been completely unable to record as my voice is wrecked. But I don’t want to leave you hanging so I’ve gone back to the archives and pulled this popular boring episode out of November 2021.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt;Learn about the processes and administration of mail in 19&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt; Century Canada and proposals to improve the services in Great Britain with those new-fangled railroads&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt;Story (03:18)&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt;While I am recovering I&amp;#39;ve decided to take this opportunity to reset how I do the podcast and set myself up so that hopefully this won&amp;#39;t happen again.&lt;br/&gt; &lt;br/&gt; You can read about my plans in this (free) Patreon post:&lt;br/&gt; &lt;a href=&#34;https://www.patreon.com/posts/but-im-getting-88645297?utm_campaign=postshare_creator&amp;utm_content=join_link&amp;utm_medium=clipboard_copy&amp;utm_source=copyLink&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt; https://www.patreon.com/posts/88645297?pr=true&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h2&gt;Need help with a Podcast?&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Do you want to start a podcast and you’d like some help with the fiddly tasks and processes? And would you like some help to ensure your podcast is the highest possible quality.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;I do podcast admin and editing. Before you do anything, get hold of me and let’s chat about how I can make your podcasting journey as smooth as possible.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Drop me a line at&lt;/span&gt; &lt;a href=&#34;mailto:dave@brightvoxaudio.com&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;&lt;span&gt;dave@brightvoxaudio.com&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;span&gt;or check out my site at&lt;/span&gt; &lt;a href=&#34;https://brightvoxaudio.com/&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;&lt;span&gt;https://brightvoxaudio.com/&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span&gt;Episode edits start at $15! So it’s crazy good value&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h2&gt;SleepPhones, our exciting new partnership&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;In our experience the best way to experience the bedtime stories of Sleepy Time Tales is with some type of headphone or earbud, but they can be cumbersome and uncomfortable.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;So we’ve partnered SleepPhones, manufacturers of headphones designed specifically to sleep in! They use a thin speaker fitted to a comfortable headband and have options from the cost effective wired headphones to the convenient Bluetooth model and will work with Sleepy Time Tales to improve your night’s sleep.

As moonlight bathes these legendary city-states, let go of the day&#39;s worries and immerse yourself in tales of epic battles, wise philosophers, and the dawn of democracy.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class=&#34;MsoNormal&#34; style= &#34;mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-hyphenate: auto; text-autospace: ideograph-numeric ideograph-other; mso-vertical-align-alt: auto;&#34;&gt; &lt;span style=&#34;font-family: &#39;Calibri&#39;,sans-serif;&#34;&gt;Our purpose is to soothe your mind.

Drift into serenity, as &#34;Sleepy Time Tales&#34; guides you to a night of tranquil slumber, where the past&#39;s embrace becomes your haven of rest.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class=&#34;MsoNormal&#34; style= &#34;mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-hyphenate: auto; text-autospace: ideograph-numeric ideograph-other; mso-vertical-align-alt: auto;&#34;&gt; &lt;span style=&#34;font-family: &#39;Calibri&#39;,sans-serif;&#34;&gt;Story (03:15)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h2&gt;Need help with a Podcast?&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p class=&#34;Standard&#34;&gt;&lt;span style= &#34;font-family: &#39;Calibri&#39;,sans-serif;&#34;&gt;As you know I left my job at the end of July to spend more time with my family.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class=&#34;Standard&#34;&gt;&lt;span style= &#34;font-family: &#39;Calibri&#39;,sans-serif;&#34;&gt;To earn a living, I have started a company to edit and produce podcasts.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class=&#34;Standard&#34;&gt;&lt;span style= &#34;font-family: &#39;Calibri&#39;,sans-serif;&#34;&gt;From basic podcast edits to full handling of all post-production tasks including show notes and publication.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class=&#34;Standard&#34;&gt;&lt;span style= &#34;font-family: &#39;Calibri&#39;,sans-serif;&#34;&gt;I’ve even found that doing all of the work setting up a podcast for clients is quite popular.

                <description><![CDATA[<p><span> Slumbering Saga Through Sparta and Athens</span></p> <p> <span> The book of the ancient Greeks by Dorothy Mills</span></p> <p> <span>Welcome to &#34;Sleepy Time Tales,&#34; the podcast that gently guides you into restful slumber with tranquil stories. In this episode, we draw you into the mesmerizing world of ancient Sparta and Athens, inspired by Dorothy Mills&#39; &#34;The Book of the Ancient Greeks.&#34;</span></p> <p> <span>Through hushed narration, we transport you to the heart of history, where the rivalry between Sparta and Athens unfolds. Immerse yourself in the disciplined lives of Spartan warriors and the intellectual realm of Athenian thinkers. As moonlight bathes these legendary city-states, let go of the day&#39;s worries and immerse yourself in tales of epic battles, wise philosophers, and the dawn of democracy.</span></p> <p> <span>Our purpose is to soothe your mind. With each word, you&#39;ll detach from the present, finding solace in ancient stories. Feel the weight of the day lift as you&#39;re enveloped in the distant echoes of antiquity. Drift into serenity, as &#34;Sleepy Time Tales&#34; guides you to a night of tranquil slumber, where the past&#39;s embrace becomes your haven of rest.</span></p> <p> <span>Story (03:15)<br/></span></p> <h2>Need help with a Podcast?</h2> <p><span>As you know I left my job at the end of July to spend more time with my family.</span></p> <p><span>To earn a living, I have started a company to edit and produce podcasts.</span></p> <p><span>From basic podcast edits to full handling of all post-production tasks including show notes and publication.</span></p> <p><span>I’ve even found that doing all of the work setting up a podcast for clients is quite popular.

They use a thin speaker fitted to a comfortable headband and have options from the cost effective wired headphones to the convenient Bluetooth model and will work with Sleepy Time Tales to improve your night’s sleep.

It’s not hard, just time consuming for busy people with other work to prioritise.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;So if you or someone you know needs a podcast edited or any podcast admin done, drop me a line at&lt;/span&gt; &lt;a href=&#34;mailto:dave@brightvoxaudio.com&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;&lt;span&gt;dave@brightvoxaudio.com&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;span&gt;or check out my site at&lt;/span&gt; &lt;a href=&#34;https://brightvoxaudio.com/&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;&lt;span&gt;https://brightvoxaudio.com/&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span&gt;Episode edits start at $15, lock in introductory pricing now!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h2&gt;SleepPhones, our exciting new partnership&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;In our experience the best way to experience the bedtime stories of Sleepy Time Tales is with some type of headphone or earbud, but they can be cumbersome and uncomfortable.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;So we’ve partnered SleepPhones, manufacturers of headphones designed specifically to sleep in!

In this episode, we continue our journey through the world of Virginia Woolf&#39;s classic novel. Ralph Denham finds himself feeling uneasy after a party at the Hilbery house and embarks on a contemplative walk. As the night unfolds, we delve into Ralph&#39;s thoughts as he rationalizes the events of the evening, trying to make sense of his feelings towards Katharine Hilbery.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class=&#34;MsoNormal&#34; style= &#34;mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-hyphenate: auto; text-autospace: ideograph-numeric ideograph-other; mso-vertical-align-alt: auto;&#34;&gt; &lt;span style=&#34;font-family: &#39;Calibri&#39;,sans-serif;&#34;&gt;Later, we catch a glimpse of Ralph&#39;s domestic life as a middle-class gentleman with a large, stress-filled family. While this may not be the most exciting part of the story, rest assured that its calming narrative will soon have you drifting off to a peaceful slumber. So, tuck yourself in, close your eyes, and let the soothing words of Sleepy Time Tales guide you into a restful sleep. Sweet dreams!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class=&#34;MsoNormal&#34; style= &#34;mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-hyphenate: auto; text-autospace: ideograph-numeric ideograph-other; mso-vertical-align-alt: auto;&#34;&gt; &lt;span style=&#34;font-family: &#39;Calibri&#39;,sans-serif;&#34;&gt;Story (03:32) (01:30)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h2&gt;Need help with a Podcast?&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p class=&#34;Standard&#34;&gt;&lt;span style= &#34;font-family: &#39;Calibri&#39;,sans-serif;&#34;&gt;As you know I left my job at the end of July to spend more time with my family.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class=&#34;Standard&#34;&gt;&lt;span style= &#34;font-family: &#39;Calibri&#39;,sans-serif;&#34;&gt;To earn a living, I have started a company to edit and produce podcasts.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class=&#34;Standard&#34;&gt;&lt;span style= &#34;font-family: &#39;Calibri&#39;,sans-serif;&#34;&gt;From basic podcast edits to full handling of all post-production tasks including show notes and publication.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class=&#34;Standard&#34;&gt;&lt;span style= &#34;font-family: &#39;Calibri&#39;,sans-serif;&#34;&gt;I’ve even found that doing all of the work setting up a podcast for clients is quite popular.

In this episode, we continue our journey through the world of Virginia Woolf&#39;s classic novel. Ralph Denham finds himself feeling uneasy after a party at the Hilbery house and embarks on a contemplative walk. As the night unfolds, we delve into Ralph&#39;s thoughts as he rationalizes the events of the evening, trying to make sense of his feelings towards Katharine Hilbery.</span></p> <p> <span>Later, we catch a glimpse of Ralph&#39;s domestic life as a middle-class gentleman with a large, stress-filled family. While this may not be the most exciting part of the story, rest assured that its calming narrative will soon have you drifting off to a peaceful slumber. So, tuck yourself in, close your eyes, and let the soothing words of Sleepy Time Tales guide you into a restful sleep.

Sweet dreams!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt;Story (03:32) (01:30)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h2&gt;Need help with a Podcast?&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;As you know I left my job at the end of July to spend more time with my family.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;To earn a living, I have started a company to edit and produce podcasts.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;From basic podcast edits to full handling of all post-production tasks including show notes and publication.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;I’ve even found that doing all of the work setting up a podcast for clients is quite popular. It’s not hard, just time consuming for busy people with other work to prioritise.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;So if you or someone you know needs a podcast edited or any podcast admin done, drop me a line at&lt;/span&gt; &lt;a href=&#34;mailto:dave@brightvoxaudio.com&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;&lt;span&gt;dave@brightvoxaudio.com&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;span&gt;or check out my site at&lt;/span&gt; &lt;a href=&#34;https://brightvoxaudio.com/&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;&lt;span&gt;https://brightvoxaudio.com/&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span&gt;Episode edits start at $15, lock in introductory pricing now!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h2&gt;SleepPhones, our exciting new partnership&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;In our experience the best way to experience the bedtime stories of Sleepy Time Tales is with some type of headphone or earbud, but they can be cumbersome and uncomfortable.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;So we’ve partnered SleepPhones, manufacturers of headphones designed specifically to sleep in! They use a thin speaker fitted to a comfortable headband and have options from the cost effective wired headphones to the convenient Bluetooth model and will work with Sleepy Time Tales to improve your night’s sleep.

Sydney Lewis</span></p> <p><span>We return to the history and pitfalls of collecting antique English glass. You may find the fine nuances of the work of the factories of Bristol and Nailsea fascinating. Or more likely this will bore you to sleep.</span></p> <p><span> </span></p> <p><span>So, get comfortable, close your eyes, and allow yourself to drift away with this boring history.</span></p> <p> <span>Story (03:36) <br/></span></p> <h2>Need help with a Podcast?</h2> <p><span>As you know I left my job at the end of July to spend more time with my family.</span></p> <p><span>To earn a living, I have started a company to edit and produce podcasts.</span></p> <p><span>From basic podcast edits to full handling of all post-production tasks including show notes and publication.</span></p> <p><span>I’ve even found that doing all of the work setting up a podcast for clients is quite popular. It’s not hard, just time consuming for busy people with other work to prioritise.</span></p> <p><span><span> </span>So if you or someone you know needs a podcast edited or any podcast admin done, drop me a line at</span> <a href="mailto:dave@brightvoxaudio.com" rel="nofollow"><span>dave@brightvoxaudio.com</span></a> <span>or check out my site at</span> <a href="https://brightvoxaudio.com/" rel="nofollow"><span>https://brightvoxaudio.com/</span></a></p> <p><strong><span>Episode edits start at $15, lock in introductory pricing now!</span></strong></p> <h2>SleepPhones, our exciting new partnership</h2> <p><span>In our experience the best way to experience the bedtime stories of Sleepy Time Tales is with some type of headphone or earbud, but they can be cumbersome and uncomfortable.</span></p> <p><span>So we’ve partnered SleepPhones, manufacturers of headphones designed specifically to sleep in!

Sydney Lewis&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;We return to the history and pitfalls of collecting antique English glass. You may find the fine nuances of the work of the factories of Bristol and Nailsea fascinating. Or more likely this will bore you to sleep.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;So, get comfortable, close your eyes, and allow yourself to drift away with this boring history.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt;Story (03:36) &lt;br/&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h2&gt;Need help with a Podcast?&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;As you know I left my job at the end of July to spend more time with my family.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;To earn a living, I have started a company to edit and produce podcasts.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;From basic podcast edits to full handling of all post-production tasks including show notes and publication.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;I’ve even found that doing all of the work setting up a podcast for clients is quite popular. It’s not hard, just time consuming for busy people with other work to prioritise.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;So if you or someone you know needs a podcast edited or any podcast admin done, drop me a line at&lt;/span&gt; &lt;a href=&#34;mailto:dave@brightvoxaudio.com&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;&lt;span&gt;dave@brightvoxaudio.com&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;span&gt;or check out my site at&lt;/span&gt; &lt;a href=&#34;https://brightvoxaudio.com/&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;&lt;span&gt;https://brightvoxaudio.com/&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span&gt;Episode edits start at $15, lock in introductory pricing now!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h2&gt;SleepPhones, our exciting new partnership&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;In our experience the best way to experience the bedtime stories of Sleepy Time Tales is with some type of headphone or earbud, but they can be cumbersome and uncomfortable.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;So we’ve partnered SleepPhones, manufacturers of headphones designed specifically to sleep in!

                <description><![CDATA[<p> <span> Twenty Thousand Leagues under the Sea by Jules Verne</span></p> <p><span>Tonight, we embark on a captivating journey with Jules Verne&#39;s timeless masterpiece, &#34;Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea.&#34;</span></p> <p><span> </span></p> <p><span>As we delve into this classic, we join our courageous protagonist, on the brink of a perilous adventure. Mysterious sightings and unexplained attacks by an enormous sea creature have set the stage for a gripping hunt.</span></p> <p><span> </span></p> <p><span>However, fear not, dear listeners, for I assure you, this tale will not keep you awake in suspense. Through my calming narration, we&#39;ll explore the wonders of the deep, the beauty of the unknown, and gently guide you towards a tranquil slumber.</span></p> <p><span> </span></p> <p><span>So, get comfortable, close your eyes, and allow your imagination to drift into the peaceful abyss of dreams.</span></p> <p> <span>Story (03:11) <br/></span></p> <h2>Need help with a Podcast?</h2> <p><span>As you know I left my job at the end of July to spend more time with my family.</span></p> <p><span>To earn a living, I have started a company to edit and produce podcasts.</span></p> <p><span>From basic podcast edits to full handling of all post-production tasks including show notes and publication.</span></p> <p><span>I’ve even found that doing all of the work setting up a podcast for clients is quite popular.

                <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt; Twenty Thousand Leagues under the Sea by Jules Verne&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Tonight, we embark on a captivating journey with Jules Verne&amp;#39;s timeless masterpiece, &amp;#34;Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea.&amp;#34;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;As we delve into this classic, we join our courageous protagonist, on the brink of a perilous adventure. Mysterious sightings and unexplained attacks by an enormous sea creature have set the stage for a gripping hunt.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;However, fear not, dear listeners, for I assure you, this tale will not keep you awake in suspense. Through my calming narration, we&amp;#39;ll explore the wonders of the deep, the beauty of the unknown, and gently guide you towards a tranquil slumber.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;So, get comfortable, close your eyes, and allow your imagination to drift into the peaceful abyss of dreams.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;span&gt;Story (03:11) &lt;br/&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h2&gt;Need help with a Podcast?&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;As you know I left my job at the end of July to spend more time with my family.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;To earn a living, I have started a company to edit and produce podcasts.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;From basic podcast edits to full handling of all post-production tasks including show notes and publication.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;I’ve even found that doing all of the work setting up a podcast for clients is quite popular.

Colin learning more about nature, India and Mary’s friend Dickon.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;But the weather turns and Mary returns to the Garden as she begins to think that maybe they could share Colin’s Mother’s Garden with him.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;But it is a bedtime story so you’ll find sleep knocking before the weather turns.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Story (04:14)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h2&gt;Need help with a Podcast?&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;As you know I left my job at the end of July to spend more time with my family.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;To earn a living, I have started a company to edit and produce podcasts.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;From basic podcast edits to full handling of all post-production tasks including show notes and publication.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;I’ve even found that doing all of the work setting up a podcast for clients is quite popular.

But none of it is interesting enough to keep you awake in the dark as you start to drift off to sleep.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Story (07:21) (04:49)&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h2&gt;SleepPhones, and a discount code&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt;In our experience the best way to experience the bedtime stories of Sleepy Time Tales is with some type of headphone or earbud, but they can be cumbersome and uncomfortable.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Our partners at SleepPhones agree and are offering Sleepy Time Tales listeners a 10% discount on purchases of $99.95 or more.

They use a thin speaker fitted to a comfortable headband and have options from the cost effective wired headphones to the convenient Bluetooth model and will work with Sleepy Time Tales to improve your night’s sleep.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;To check them out go to &lt;a href= &#34;https://www.sleepphones.com/?aff=740&#34;&gt;sleepphones.sleepytimetales.net&lt;/a&gt; to check them out and support Sleepy Time Tales.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h2&gt;New Merch Store!!&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt;I’ve partnered with TeePublic to setup a new merch store.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;But because I’m no visual artist I’m taking advantage of a &lt;em&gt;great&lt;/em&gt; TeePublic feature that allows me to share the works of other creators; expose them to my audience, allow their work to be purchased, and receive a small cut myself.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Check out the storefront at &lt;a href= &#34;https://www.teepublic.com/stores/sleepy-time-tales?ref_id=25247&#34;&gt;https://www.teepublic.com/stores/sleepy-time-tales?ref_id=25247&lt;/a&gt; or go directly to &lt;a href= &#34;https://www.teepublic.com/stores/sleepy-time-tales?ref_id=25247&#34;&gt;store.sleepytimetales.net&lt;/a&gt; or &lt;a href= &#34;https://www.teepublic.com/stores/sleepy-time-tales?ref_id=25247&#34;&gt;merch.sleepytimetales.net&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;I’d also like to issue a call.

They use a thin speaker fitted to a comfortable headband and have options from the cost effective wired headphones to the convenient Bluetooth model and will work with Sleepy Time Tales to improve your night’s sleep.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;To check them out go to &lt;a href=&#34;https://www.sleepphones.com/?aff=740&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;sleepphones.sleepytimetales.net&lt;/a&gt; to check them out and support Sleepy Time Tales.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h2&gt;New Merch Store!!&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt;I’ve partnered with TeePublic to setup a new merch store.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;But because I’m no visual artist I’m taking advantage of a &lt;em&gt;great&lt;/em&gt; TeePublic feature that allows me to share the works of other creators; expose them to my audience, allow their work to be purchased, and receive a small cut myself.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Check out the storefront at &lt;a href=&#34;https://www.teepublic.com/stores/sleepy-time-tales?ref_id=25247&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;https://www.teepublic.com/stores/sleepy-time-tales?ref_id=25247&lt;/a&gt; or go directly to &lt;a href=&#34;https://www.teepublic.com/stores/sleepy-time-tales?ref_id=25247&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;store.sleepytimetales.net&lt;/a&gt; or &lt;a href=&#34;https://www.teepublic.com/stores/sleepy-time-tales?ref_id=25247&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;merch.sleepytimetales.net&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;I’d also like to issue a call.

So fiction can be a risky proposition. Happily, despite the charms of the story, Little Women is far from action packed. So your slumber won’t be prevented by any excitement.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Story (06:59)&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h2&gt;SleepPhones, our exciting new partnership&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt;In our experience the best way to experience the bedtime stories of Sleepy Time Tales is with some type of headphone or earbud, but they can be cumbersome and uncomfortable.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;So we’ve partnered SleepPhones, manufacturers of headphones designed specifically to sleep in! They use a thin speaker fitted to a comfortable headband and have options from the cost effective wired headphones to the convenient Bluetooth model and will work with Sleepy Time Tales to improve your night’s sleep.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;To check them out go to &lt;a href=&#34;https://www.sleepphones.com/?aff=740&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;sleepphones.sleepytimetales.net&lt;/a&gt; to check them out and support Sleepy Time Tales.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h2&gt;New Merch Store!!&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt;I’ve partnered with TeePublic to setup a new merch store.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;But because I’m no visual artist I’m taking advantage of a &lt;em&gt;great&lt;/em&gt; TeePublic feature that allows me to share the works of other creators; expose them to my audience, allow their work to be purchased, and receive a small cut myself.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Check out the storefront at &lt;a href=&#34;https://www.teepublic.com/stores/sleepy-time-tales?ref_id=25247&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;https://www.teepublic.com/stores/sleepy-time-tales?ref_id=25247&lt;/a&gt; or go directly to &lt;a href=&#34;https://www.teepublic.com/stores/sleepy-time-tales?ref_id=25247&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;store.sleepytimetales.net&lt;/a&gt; or &lt;a href=&#34;https://www.teepublic.com/stores/sleepy-time-tales?ref_id=25247&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;merch.sleepytimetales.net&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;I’d also like to issue a call.

I’m keeping pandemic references out of the show, but it’s causing a lot of restless nights.

Although the excitement hasn’t happened yet. They do spend some time with the local lighthouse keeper&amp;#39;s wife.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Story 17:26&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Deephaven and Selected Stories &amp;amp; Sketches by Sarah Orne&lt;br/&gt; Jewett&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;div&gt; https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/15985&lt;/div&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h2&gt;Supporting Sleepy Time Tales&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;If you would&lt;br/&gt; like to support my work and help keep the podcast available and for free, there&lt;br/&gt; are several ways you can support the show.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;ul&gt; &lt;li&gt;You&lt;br/&gt; can sign up at BetterHelp for professional, low cost counselling services at: &lt;a href=&#34;https://trybetterhelp.com/sleepytime&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;https://trybetterhelp.com/sleepytime&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;ul&gt; &lt;li&gt;You&lt;br/&gt; can support the show as a supporter on Patreon and receive a host of bonuses&lt;br/&gt; including Patron only episodes, special edits and real!

I will have a selection of cold readings for your insomnia cures every week, right on schedule.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Story 15:17 &lt;br/&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&#34;https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/3465&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;Find ‘Under Two Flags’ on Project Gutenberg&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span&gt;Patreon&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;I’m running a couple of time limited bonuses here.

Oops.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;But Laura makes it to her funeral on time, despite the FBI forensic expert’s attempts.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Story: 16:40&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Obviously there will be spoilers for the show, and while Twin Peaks does have some disturbing content, the intention of Sleepy Time Tales is to help you sleep, so I&amp;#39;ll avoid those bits as much as possible.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&#34;https://amzn.to/2WsYZCm&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;Amazon has some very interesting media for Twin Peaks, besides the show itself, including the apparently rather excellent book The Secret History of Twin Peaks by Mark Frost, the show&amp;#39;s co-creator, so take a look.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&#34;https://amzn.to/2WsYZCm&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;https://amzn.to/2WsYZCm&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Sources:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&#34;http://mentalfloss.com/article/81411/16-damn-fine-facts-about-twin-peaks&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt; http://mentalfloss.com/article/81411/16-damn-fine-facts-about-twin-peaks&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&#34;https://tv.avclub.com/twin-peaks-episode-3-episode-4-1798203548&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;https://tv.avclub.com/twin-peaks-episode-3-episode-4-1798203548&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;u&gt;Find Us&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Website: &lt;a href=&#34;https://sleepytimetales.net/&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;Sleepy Time Tales&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Patreon: &lt;a href=&#34;https://www.patreon.com/sleepytimetales&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;https://www.patreon.com/sleepytimetales&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Twitter: &lt;a href=&#34;https://twitter.com/sleepytimetales&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;Sleepy Time Tales Podcast&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Facebook: &lt;a href=&#34;https://www.facebook.com/sleepytimetalespodcast/&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;Sleepy Time Tales Podcast&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;YouTube: &lt;a href=&#34;https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8gG5z50RjyiJ0_YXeQJpbg&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;Sleepy Time Tales&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Music: &lt;a href=&#34;http://loyaltyfreakmusic.com/&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;http://loyaltyfreakmusic.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Music Patreon:&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;a href=&#34;https://tinyurl.com/loyaltyfreak&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;https://tinyurl.com/loyaltyfreak&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>

                <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;Join me in the mysterious logging town of Twin Peaks as we spend some time finding out what really happened to Laura Palmer.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;This is the first in a series of Twin Peaks recap episodes, the intention is to release mid week for a while in addition to the regular Sunday release.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Obviously there will be spoilers for the show, and while Twin Peaks does have some disturbing content, the intention of Sleepy Time Tales is to help you sleep, so I&amp;#39;ll avoid those bits as much as possible.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Story: 16:30&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;I also announce the launch and details of the show&amp;#39;s Patreon.
