Boring Books for Bedtime Readings to Help You Sleep

Auteur(s): Sharon Handy
  • Résumé

  • Boring Books for Bedtime is a weekly sleep podcast in which we calmly, quietly read something rather boring to silence the brain chatter keeping you awake. Think Aristotle, Thoreau, and whoever wrote the 1897 Sears Catalog—mostly nonfiction, mostly old, a perfect blend of vaguely-but-not-too interesting. If you're on Team Sleepless, lie back, take a deep breath, and let us read you to rest.

    Feb 10 2025

    In our annual celebration of Darwin Day, let’s continue our sleepy stroll through this fundamental text of biology. This time, why natural selection works better in big spaces, the perils of extinction, and the strength that comes from diversity. It’s science!

  • How To See The British Museum in Four Visits, Part 3
    Feb 3 2025

    Let’s continue our sleepy tour of the zoological collections of the British Museum and discover the wonders first being seen by the general public circa 1850. This time, reptiles, the fauna of Great Britain, and some philosophy about our place in the history of living things. Because of course that’s included in a 19th century book.
