Settle in and close your eyes. Slow History for Sleep tells true stories from the past in a calm, steady voice, slowly enough to follow and gently enough to drift off to. A ship's gears found at the bottom of the sea. A windy beach where two brothers first flew. A painting that vanished from the Louvre. A long walk through the Niagara woods.

Each episode is a single story of around half an hour, told in the third person with soft rain in the background and nothing sudden to wake you. Real history, without the drama.
