I must stress this has nothing to do with being boring, what I’m interestedare folks who lulllyou to sleep through the smoothness and flow and safety you feel from their sustained speech independant from their content.
- If you had to pinpoint, what about their voice or schtick makes them so hypnotic…?
avery truffleman omg she could read the phonebook and i’m in for it. love her voice
Stuff You Should Know podcast with Josh and Chuck. They do interesting talks, but their voices make me sleepy.
Also Joe Ressingtons voice from a variety of the Late Night Linux group of podcasts. Just good vocal tone, and British accent, as well as they make super clean studio audio. https://latenightlinux.com/
Maybe this is too obvious, but I’m surprised no one has said Joe Pera yet.
The narrator from Fall of Civilization is very relaxing to listen to
Seconded. It’s a very soothing show for being distracted enough to doze off.
“This is 99% Invisible, I’m Roman Mars”
Matt O’Dowd on PBS Spacetime
Tim from Grand Illusions https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iCzJUCDjp0E
VaatiVidya (FromSoft game lore videos) and Voices of the Past (narration of primary historical sources) for sure.
It’s a tie between Sleep Book and Go the Fuck to Sleep.
Sean Caroll - intonation and cadence. [subject matter awesome. must. stay. awake]
John Hopkins on Short History Of has the most beautiful soothing voice.
JerryRigEverything, LockpickingLawyer, and Chef John from Foodwishes.com are absolute ear candy
Locklicking lawyer is such a great handle.
What you want is a criminal. lawyer. Thats how ya get off
Lockpicking is not a crime!
Amazed nobody beat me to Astrum. Fantastic overviews of space missions, planetary bodies, etc. Perfect to drift off to sleep with. Unfortunately I think he’s running out of things to cover so the content machine has pushed him towards pop sci astronomy. Thoroughly recommend checking out the channel playlists though.
Sebastian Lague does graphics/interactive programming with a good dose of poetry and has a very soothing voice. Some of his videos are absolutely fabulous
Art Bell. His voice is just buttery silk, the content is batshit crazy, and it was always a late-night show.
