My favorite podcast of all time!

A great collection of interesting stories that lull you to sleep while also exploring a deeper theme within the story. The narrator has a great narration voice without allowing noise in the background to distract from the story like in other podcast!! That being said, I'm really hoping audible doesnt get rid of this podcast!! It would definitely miss it especially since it's one of a kind!!!

Superb

Loved everything about what I listened to last night. Enough to keep your attention, lull out, and then pick back up listening as you weave in and out of sleep. Stories are lovely. Narrator is very good as well. I’ll definitely be listening to this again. Thank you!
