“I have suffered with difficulty falling asleep for years. This podcast really truly helps turn my brain down and shifts my focus so I can drift off to sleep.
The stories are not what I anticipated, they are on the silly side, and rather fantastical. They are quite engaging at first, and then become progressively more boring. The characters are reasonably well developed with predictable personalities and more humour than I expected.
Even though I have never managed to hear the end of an episode, the serial stories still work because of the quick recap before the next chapter begins.
Trending Twitter Tuesdays has the author pick out what is trending on Twitter, and make up a story using elements from there.
The guided meditation is like nothing I have ever experienced. Usually when I’ve tried guided meditation it’s the crap you do at the end of a yoga practice. (Full disclosure: I hate yoga) Usually you get, “imagine yourself on the beach - - feel the sun entering your body and filling your heart with love” or some such rot. Sleep With Me has Dearest Scooter describing the perfect sandwich - and it is wonderful and incredibly effective.
It is worthwhile to mention that this is not a G rated podcast. This is intended for adults and mature young adults. There is some crude language and mature topics. If I had one, I would let my 12 year old listen, but no younger than that.
There is an obvious charm and passion from the author. You can hear it in his voice that he really wants to help people sleep better, and he is succeeding. I would highly recommend Sleep With Me Podcast for anyone who needs some help turning down their racing thoughts and daily stresses at bedtime.”
