  • Announcing Summer Reruns! and a note about ads
    Jul 2 2025

    We're here with some exciting announcements!

    Since Sherlock Holmes has met his match at Reichenbach Falls, now is the perfect time to remember how he got there. That's why, for the months of July and August, we'll be revisiting some of the most iconic Sherlock Holmes stories in a series we're calling Summer Reruns. Join us as we return to A Scandal in Bohemia, The Red-Headed League, and more, and let the classic stories help you beat the heat and relax during the hottest months of the year.

    We also wanted to share a note about ads on our podcast. For over two years, we have been bringing you our podcast totally free. To help sustain our podcast, we've recently begun experimenting with incorporating advertising. However, we've heard your feedback about the ads being placed in the middle of the stories. Our first priority is to help our listeners get a good night's sleep, so we're updating the placement of any future advertising to only come at the beginning of an episode, so that your listening experience is not interrupted. We value your feedback and support as we continue this process!

    We're so grateful for the support of each and every one of our dedicated listeners. We couldn't have made it this far without you - thank you!

  • Summer Reruns: A Scandal in Bohemia, Part 1
    Jul 2 2025

    There's no better way to start our Summer Reruns series than with one of Sherlock Holmes's most notable opponents, Irene Adler. This week, Holmes and Watson meet the king of Bohemia, who is being blackmailed by Adler, his former paramour, who possesses some compromising photos. Seems straightforward enough for Holmes, but is it? Find out as this classic case comforts you as you make your way from a busy day into a night of restful sleep.

Great stories. It's Sherlock. Very well narrated, and it helps me fall asleep. It's paced well and I find it very relaxing.

I haven't made it through a whole episode yet. That's a good thing! Zzzzzzzzz

With that said, I have listened to other podcasts for sleeping where they read stories. They start their episodes with a quick synopsis of the previous episodes. That's helpful as I miss much when falling to sleep.

Haven't made it through an episode without zonking out yet.

The narrator and music is a winning combination. Sometimes I’ll go through 2-3 episodes before falling asleep. Sometimes I won’t make it through one, which is a big deal for me.

Perfect for this mystery-loving insomniac.

Narration is the perfect combination of engaging and relaxing to allow my mind to sleep. The music is lovely as well. I don’t believe I’ve made it to the end of any of the episodes!

Narrator is fantastic
