Three hour sleep stories for adults, from the fairy tales and myths you already know. Alice in Wonderland, The Wizard of Oz, Sleeping Beauty, Robin Hood, Homer's Odyssey, and the old gods of the North and of Egypt, each retold in slow, calm narration made to be listened to as you fall asleep. Each episode is researched, written, and narrated to drift over you rather than demand your attention. The pacing is slow. The music never spikes. The goal is the opposite of keeping you awake. Each season moves through a different story tradition: Norse mythology, Egyptian myth, the great fairy tales, the tales of 1001 Nights, Homer's Odyssey, the myths of ancient Mesopotamia, and the lost books of the Bible. New episodes every Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Sunday night, every one of them three hours long. The almanac is now a book. Norse Myths Retold for Sleep gathers twelve of the oldest stories, retold to be read in a low lamp until the page slips from your hand.

    Three hours of calm music from the world of Celtic myth, made to help you fall asleep and stay asleep through the whole night. A bonus for the quiet nights, the same music playing tonight on our live sleep stream, three hours with no talking at all.

    Tonight is a candlelit hall on a western coast in the last nights of October, the sea on the rocks somewhere below and the old year turning toward Samhain, carried in one long piece that returns in a darker, slower form, so the music keeps drifting instead of looping every few minutes. The music belongs to Cerridwen, the Welsh keeper of the cauldron of wisdom.

    The music is original to the show, made with AI music tools and mixed for sleep: no melody that swells, no percussion, nothing sudden.

    If it helps you sleep, follow the show so each new story and each new night of music arrives on its own, and leave a rating on Apple Podcasts so other people can find it.

    Two nights ago a table was set in a wooden house, and a place was left empty, and a woman said her father's name to a chair. Tonight, in our imagined village, a priest walks past that house on his way home from saying the office for the dead, sees the candle in the window, knows exactly what it means, and keeps walking. The second of two specials that open Season Seven, the Slavic season. How Christian days of remembrance shared a season with household customs, sometimes overlapping and sometimes meeting opposition. The slips of paper with the names of the dead handed in at the church door. A Polish burial ground on the first of November, lit like a town. A boy from the borderland who grew up to write a short verse play about a chapel at night, three kinds of ghost and one strange line, and how that play became the book a whole nation carries. And a night in Warsaw when the play was closed. Told plainly and slowly, distinguishing historical accounts, poetic invention and our imagined village.

And the Two Candles 1:30:51 Rain ambience to drift off The Sleeping Almanac retells the world's oldest myths and stories as three hour sleep stories for adults. Calm narration over the sound of real rain, no sudden sounds, no mid roll ads. New episodes every Sunday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday night, and live every Monday, Wednesday and Saturday. Season Seven, the Slavic season, runs twelve nights from November 15: Vasilisa and the doll, Perun and the river, Baba Yaga, Koschei the Deathless, the Firebird, the Frog Princess, Ilya Muromets, Sadko, Father Frost, the bathhouse, the vampire graves of 1732, and Svyatogor.
