    Great podcast for drifting to sleep or to have on low volume for noise when I’m concentrating or need to calm down. Speaker is even-toned, calm.

    Thanks for your info on Pearls. I found it really interesting. I am lucky enough to own a few sets of pearls - necklaces and earrings, that have been passed down through the family. After my mother sadly passed away, I also received her sets of pearls.
