I listen to: Nothing Much Happens to fall asleep. I thought I would try to switch it up with this one. OMG…..starts right off with a ROUSING commercial!!! What the….. who in heck finds this relaxing?? Then your narration began. Not soothing at all, in my humble opinion. You speak too fast and...Read full review »

I love this podcast but very disappointed with the tumbler ad. Sham.

Truly, I love this pod, it's my go to for sleep, but doing an episode about a sponsors product is... meh. No one cares to hear about a HydroJug or whatever. I think I speak for most when I say interesting topics are preferred. Learning about new subjects is enjoyable and it's your voice...Read full review »

Thank you

This is a brilliant podcast for helping sleep HOWEVER the ads have been ruining the effect a bit of late. I skipped through them to the intro and settled down but as soon as the intro ended more ads. The first one began with an alarm sound, I kid you not. There was another one with some bloke...Read full review »

I have such a hard time falling asleep and this podcast helps me so much! It is a bit interesting so I’m not bored if I lay awake listening- but not so interesting that it keeps me up. Thank you for tucking me in each night!

Sponsorship where you sell us a product and/or less loud adverts might be better. Waking up to an obnoxiously loud cash register is not what I want from this podcast.
BenJMartin via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 03/02/24
The ads really worsen the listening experience. I understand the podcast needs ads to run but they are so loud and jarring and it’s annoying to have an ad, the podcast begins and then immediately get hit with another shouting advert

I really like this podcast. It does exactly what it needs to do for me. It puts me to sleep right away, with the added benefit of learning something new from time to time. The narrator’s voice is really soothing too. This is a perfect example of a podcast that should only include ads that are...Read full review »

This podcast is so relaxing that it takes me minutes to fall sleep. I enjoy his soothing voice and the topics are interesting enough that it holds my attention just a bit and then I fall asleep. I highly recommend!
ABusyMama via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/14/24
Jarring loud advertising at the beginning seems counterproductive. But unbelievable how quick this can put you to sleep. His voice is actually boring. Remember all those times you were falling to sleep during a college lecture. Well now you can actually go for it! You can’t listen to back to...Read full review »

I came across this podcast because I’ve been having a heavy upturn with restless sleep. The smooth voice has put me right to sleep every night so I’m not dreading falling asleep
Clover343 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/05/24
Bless this man’s smooth molasses voice. The topics are interesting enough to catch your attention but boring enough that you’ll be out zzzz in a few minutes… but also interesting enough that you’ll want to listen the next night to see what you missed. But you will fall asleep again. Ah, rest.

Hey, hey, its okay. Everyone has bad days. Don’t try to please anyone, you just need to please your own body. You are perfect the way you are, don’t let anyone say otherwise. Your opinion counts, don’t let it be put down. You are enough, your friends, family and pets care for you. Don’t just...Read full review »

I can go to sleep! So interesting .
mizzvawe via Apple Podcasts · Iceland · 01/27/24
As a long time sufferer of night waking, this podcast and some sleeper headphones have been life changing. It’s my “go to” for falling asleep and going back to sleep on most nights. I start off pretty interested in the topic of choice (so many fun options) and BAM am asleep in 10 minutes or less....Read full review »

It pretty nice but I don’t like the hosts voice, it doesn’t go right with the storyline.✨🌙 and two many ads like just get to the story and Benjamin I think you should try and have some life in your voice because it sounds so unenthusiastic and I want a little like to my bedtime story. It sounds...Read full review »

I discovered this podcast a few days ago and love it. I don’t think I’ve made it 5 minutes into an episode without falling asleep, which is so much better than being awake at the end of a sleep meditation (having learned nothing meanwhile!). I like to think my brain is still listening, and that...Read full review »

I found this podcast recently and I love it. The monotone voice is soothing and I get to learn at the same time! I really don't understand the complaint about ads when they are only at the beginning, unless you need multiple episodes to fall asleep. If you use it that often, you could very...Read full review »
joshieboshie23 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/10/24
This podcast is so enjoyable, except for the loud ADS. I don’t care about weight-loss salads. I just want to go to sleep. Other wise, great podcast!
eforman via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/10/24
I like to listen to this when I can can’t sleep. But this is ruined when I hear those ads which just ruin it. And I’m not paying for premium. This really pisses me off, please stop doing that his.
DOGEGAME via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 12/10/23
Sometimes I listen to this during the day because it’s so interesting!
Alliespn via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/07/23
I love this podcast for an unexpected reason. I, in fact, think most of the topics are fascinating. I took notes on the geometry episode. I don’t exactly use the podcast for it’s intended purpose, but it does serve an important function as an educational podcast. Haha just kidding I’m not Dwight...Read full review »

boomdiggles via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/04/23
When the whole idea of a podcast is to get to sleep, 3 minutes of noisy ads at the beginning defeats the object of it. I struggle to get back to sleep after waking up and it often takes longer than 1 episode, but allowing the app to carry on playing the next episode means you get the ads again. I...Read full review »
Feelgoodhit via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 11/29/23
The Glassbox tag at the start and then the ad after the intro just really defeat the purpose of the podcast, sorry Benjamin.
indya-with-a-y via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 11/14/23
I really like the podcast itself. My problem isn’t with the ads themselves, the problem is when I’m trying to go to sleep and there’s a loud ad and a narrator challenging, “what if you’d been stabbed 26 times?” Oh. Ok. Now I’m aware of a true crime podcast while I’m trying to get to sleep.” Now...Read full review »

I love this podcast because it puts me right to sleep. Unfortunately, the ads are shockingly incongruent with the entire purpose of the show. I would love to pay for an ad-free monthly or, preferably, yearly subscription. Please make this possible or if it already exists, please let me know where...Read full review »

The podcast still delivers what it promises—a calm voice reading boring stories. However, whereas in the past Mr. Boster would read the ads/sponsor messages himself, now the podcast begins with a series prerecorded advertisements with loud music, loud announcers —just plain loud. The perfect...Read full review »

As the title suggests, this podcast is rather dull. So much so it puts me to sleep. Brilliant!
LouisNelson via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/10/23
The host has a very boring delivery, but unfortunately a bery irritating voice. The kind of voice that makes you want to yell, "Shut up!" Not the kind of voice that helps you drift off to sleep.Read full review »

I’ve never heard the end of an episode because I’m falling asleep so much faster! Thank you!
Spark3r87 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 10/01/23
Oh my lord this podcast is so boring. Listening to him read is like sitting in that college lecture hall with the most boring professor in existence reading the book that their professor wrote 40 years prior. Even the most interesting stuff that is read goes 3,2,1 lights out and you are asleep.
txnavy42 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/08/23
Noticed in the latest episode (archeology) the reading speed is unnaturally sped up. I was able to put up with skipping the loud ads that others have mentioned, but now it’s like it was recorded and set on 1.25x speed before posting. Not exactly relaxing when trying to fall asleep. Big bummer -...Read full review »

The ads have ruined everything. I need this to fall asleep too and when I’m in the zone of drifting off, an ad comes blaring out of nowhere, waking me up. PLEASE do something about this. I used to love this podcast to fall asleep too and now I can’t use it anymore. 😥

Okay, I love this podcast but have to know one thing… IF YOU WERE A DINO NUGGET, WHAT SHAPE OF NUGGET WOULD YOU BE?!?!?!?!

Ads
I understand you gotta pay the bills but these ads really take me out of it. Why don’t you just read them instead?

The first one I listened to (alfalfa) I giggled through and so I remember that the word is derived from the Arabic and that cows get gas from it, etc. I have listened to one episode every night since and I could not tell you what any of them are about…Because I go to sleep within about 3...Read full review »

Oh Benjamin, thank you for gently boring me to sleep when I cannot seem to do it myself. This podcast is an awesome mix of great concept (hilarious), exceptional delivery, and the right content. All the topics are slightly interesting, but I’ve rarely heard all but the introduction and a few...Read full review »

The actual podcast part is phenomenally boring (which I love) but them ADS just drive me crazy. For a podcast that helps you fall asleep the ads are super loud and jarring. Not great for 1am listening. I wouldn’t mind the ads if the host read them with his awesome soothing voice. Also what...Read full review »

I don’t mind ads. I don’t mind them in the beginning. I am not, however, going to listen if the ads are run during the main content. Thanks for the occasional episode I used.
Ohforgogssake via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/28/23
I thought maybe you should do a podcast about the word boring?
