The voice you hear is the creator's own. He cloned it from recordings of his own voice, so every story is told in his voice. If you enjoy falling asleep to it, follow the show so each new story arrives on its own, and leave a rating on Apple Podcasts so other people can find it.

A slow, calm Egyptian mythology sleep story to help you fall asleep and stay asleep. Tonight, the patient tale of how the goddess Isis won the secret name of Ra, the one hidden word that held all his power.
This is a bedtime story for adults, made for sleep, insomnia, and quiet nights when the mind will not switch off. The pacing is slow, the voice is soft, and the music never spikes. You do not have to follow it. Just let it drift over you.
