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.

Welcome to The Sleeping Almanac. Tonight the wind king gives a gift no one should open, home comes so close the watch fires can be seen, and a gentle enchantress on a green island keeps the weary travelers a whole slow year. This is the tale of the bag of winds and the house of Circe told for sleep, calm enough to drift to and rich enough to stay awake for if you choose.
Close your eyes. Let the fire on the beach burn low. There is nothing to do now but listen and rest.
