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.

You have heard the word Anunnaki. Tonight we go all the way back to the clay the word was first pressed into. A slow, calm 3 hour Mesopotamian mythology sleep story to help you fall asleep and stay asleep. The oldest written stories on earth, told the way the tablets actually tell them: the gods who dug the rivers and went on strike, the making of people from clay and river water, a world so loud the gods could not sleep, a flood told plainly and resolved gently, the sages who came out of the sea, and a list of kings who reigned for impossible thousands of years, with the small quiet true thing that explains those numbers waiting in the tenth chapter.

Settle in, close your eyes, and let it drift over you. The pacing is slow, the voice is soft, and the music never spikes.
