Which podcaster or spoken word content producer has a particular hypnotic voice that you cant resist dozing off too?

I must stress this has nothing to do with being boring, what I’m interestedare folks who lulllyou to sleep through the smoothness and flow and safety you feel from their sustained speech independant from their content.

  1. If you had to pinpoint, what about their voice or schtick makes them so hypnotic…?

      Maybe this is too obvious, but I’m surprised no one has said Joe Pera yet.

          For me, it’s always been Phoebe Judge from the podcast Criminal.

                Sebastian Lague does graphics/interactive programming with a good dose of poetry and has a very soothing voice. Some of his videos are absolutely fabulous

                  The narrator from Fall of Civilization is very relaxing to listen to

                      Seconded. It’s a very soothing show for being distracted enough to doze off.

                        Yeah good call. I kinda forget he exists and then once every six months he pops up to deliver three hours of perfect storytelling

                          VaatiVidya (FromSoft game lore videos) and Voices of the Past (narration of primary historical sources) for sure.

                                  Art Bell. His voice is just buttery silk, the content is batshit crazy, and it was always a late-night show.

                                        Drew Ackerman from the Sleep With Me podcast. This is in direct defiance of your post, though. He self describes as the world’s most boring person.

                                          He’s still alive but stopped making my comfort content. I’ll probably get into his MTG stuff at some point but I’m still recovering from him stopping playing Dota. I watched him play Dota almost my whole life

                                            Not really answering your exact question, but it’s a tie between Sleep Book and Go the Fuck to Sleep.
