It’s time to turn on, tune in, and nod off 💤

💤Sleep with Me

Drew Ackerman’s pod has been running biweekly since 2013. Essentially it’s a series of droney shaggy dog stories and dreamy lullaby advertising jingles that aim to put you asleep by distracting your brain via the obscure and boring knottiness of the stories
💤Game of Drones

Also presented by Drew Ackerman, this sister podcast to ‘Sleep with Me’ is… wild (albeit in a very sleepy way). In essence, it’s a series of long (usually at least 90 minutes) extremely rambling recaps of each episode of ‘Game of Thrones’
💤Nothing Much Happens

‘Nothing Much Happens’ is a sweetly inconsequential podcast that consists of yoga and meditation teacher Kathryn Nicolai offering up gentle half-hour-ish stories in which very little happens
💤Slow Radio

Essentially it's a series that mixes calming music with field recordings. Episodes include recordings of the bells of Venice or the sound of winter in Japan. Although lightly presented, they are – as you might have guessed – far slower than a normal documentary
💤Get Sleepy

Hosted by Brit Tom Jones – a veteran of sleep radio and apps – each episode of ‘Get Sleepy’ combines an opening sleep meditation sequence combined with a gentle story designed to help you nod off. It also takes input from scientific experts and listeners
💤Sleep Whispers

The USP of ‘Sleep Whispers’ is… whispering. The content runs the gamut from poetry to, no kidding, readings of Wikipedia articles, all united by the fact they’re read in a soothing whisper (as opposed to a sinister one) by host ‘Whispering’ Harris
💤Send me to Sleep

Voice actor and ‘sleep geek’ host Andrew has a distinctive, precise diction that you’ll either find engrossingly hypnotic or distractingly weird. ‘Send Me To Sleep’ combines Andrew’s unusual tones with the usual blend of short stories and meditation exercises
💤Boring Books for Bedtime

Sharon Handy’s ‘Boring Books for Bedtime’ is really quite something. Each episode, she soothingly reads out something truly tedious, from John Ashton’s ‘The History of Bread’ to a guide to North American Wildflowers
💤Sleep Life

‘Sleep Life’s self-declared goal is to ‘help you unlock your sleeping potential’. While the show is soothing and meditative, it also serves as a factual series about what makes for good sleep hygiene, with the hosts interviewing a series of scientists and experts
💤Snoozecast

Another storytelling podcast, ‘Snoozecast’s thing is that it has a huge library of classic public domain works to draw from, including a large number of classic children’s stories, all read out in soothing tones

Can’t sleep? No worries, neither can anyone else. According to Twitter, where #cantsleep regularly trends, a whole bunch of us are struggling to get our eight hours in during these strange and stressful times.

Here’s how to switch off according to snoozing expert James Wilson 👇
💤Don’t work from bed

When you’re working from home, it’s super tempting to work from under your duvet – but if you’ve got the space, don’t do it. According to Wilson, it’s much better to try and create an area of your home that’s for work and leave your mattress for snoozing

It's every bit as dramatic, bizarre and out-there as the documentary 🐅

timeout.com/news/5-wild-re…
Hey cool cats and kittens, Tiger King is back. Well, sort of: the dramatisation of everyone’s favourite lockdown true-crime story and big cat feud, Joe vs. Carole, has arrived. And like the story it’s based on, it’s wilder than a pride of lions.

Here's why you should tune in 👇
🐅The casting is purrfect

Kate McKinnon and Cameron Mitchell have found the humanity as well as the humour in their characters. Mitchell captures Exotic’s hunger for attention. While McKinnon gives Baskin gravitas: her ambition and motivations are underpinned by loss and sadness

The hamlet of Edelweiss could be yours for £1.3 million 🇨🇦

timeout.com/news/this-eeri…
Lots of us have thought about making a big move abroad of late. That’s what two years largely confined to your hometown does to you. Still keeping the dream alive in 2022? Well, you should know an entire abandoned village in Canada has just gone up for sale, and it looks amazing
The hamlet of Edelweiss in British Columbia was built in 1910 for the Swiss guides and mountaineers who relocated to help tourists traverse the Rocky Mountains. The town’s buildings were built in a charming Alpine style, designed to mimic traditional European chalets

One night at the Mexican pad costs more than the average annual salary in the UK 🏝️

timeout.com/news/the-too-h…
With its huge thatched atrium, stunning beach location, luxuriant garden and impressive variety of swimming pools, you’d be forgiven for thinking that the Casa Tau in the Mexican resort town of Punta Mita is just a typical – albeit very, very posh – holiday pad
