    Relax with a meandering and mildly amusing story!


    Aspiring supervillain Dr. Barry Puce seeks out inspiration for a new project.


    Quick note: There are no ads once the story starts (usually around five minutes in), and none at the end.


    I recommend that you turn off autoplay / clear the ‘up next’ bit of your podcast app to avoid anything loud coming on automatically!

    Relax with a meandering and mildly amusing story!


    In this episode: Vernon Drumfork is visited by a new client, disrupting his planned admin day with an interesting new case. Will he find the missing item? Why does Bridget Shin smell of geraniums? Was the whole 'badger' thing under-used in this story? Find out for yourself (or fall asleep before any of those questions are answered) in this, the 50th episode of The Sleep Pod!

    Relax with a meandering and mildly amusing story!


    In this episode: Winter has finally arrived and Virginia Blurt has a lot of work to do for the big project that the town has been looking forward to for the last 12 months.



    Sorry it's taken so long to get this episode out - It will be full steam ahead again at the start of the new year, but this seasonally-appropriate offering will hopefully satisfy until then!

James’s voice and pacing, and the lovely boring-ness of his stories, put me to sleep in just a few minutes. I’m sad that the podcast seems to have ended, although multiple listens are possible because I never get more than a few minutes in before I’m sound asleep. I would pay a subscription fee to have more episodes though, if that would bring it back.

Best way I’ve found to fall asleep

This was my first SleepPod episode; it hit me just right with the balance of silly and boring. I enjoyed it so much I quoted it to my children, and I carefully restarted it each night several nights in a row so I wouldn’t miss anything, but then I’d fall asleep before anything new happened and I’ve have to restart at the same place again….

I loved this!

I love this story so much! It’s witty, and lovely, and best of all…SLEEPY! Thank you, James!

PERFECTION!

My husband and I are always listening to fall asleep. Silly, fun and just boring enough. 😴 We wish there was more!

simply need more.

Love the extremely slow voice! So far I’ve fallen asleep before the ending every time 😴💤

Finally found a recording that works!

I don’t know why exactly, but these stories have just the right amount of whatever it is that they have to put me to sleep.

Better than melatonin

Without fail, I'm asleep before the end of any chapter. I've even listened to the chapters more than one. Please keep up the grand, meandering, and nonsense up!

How does it end?

Heck yeah I struggle to finish! Isn't that the point? This PodCast, along with a bit of melatonin, is the only thing I have ever found that helps me get to sleep. The stories are amusing, and engaging enough to keep my mind from wandering and keeping me awake with incessant thoughts, but pointless and meandering enough that I don't feel the desire to stay awake to hear the ending or to find out what happens next. His voice is soothing, he talks slowly and sleepily, and the background music/sound is hypnotic and unobtrusive. I have listened to this podcast every night since I discovered it (maybe a couple months ago), and this lifelong insomniac is so grateful for it.

Best Sleep Aid!

Absolutely love these sleepy stories. I often listen to them more than once as they seem to be the most effective sleep story. Please don't stop doing stories James

Just what one wants in a story they're hoping will help them sleep is repeated obnoxious commercial interruptions. NOT!

Commercials!?
