4.6 out of 5 stars from 126 ratings
  • Possibly my favourite thing about Ōtautahi

    Five stars for such an excellent sleep support. Although sleep & I have never had the easiest of relationships. My mother used to let me listen to radio plays when I couldn’t sleep as a child. And my age I now have a plethora of sleep health support (hello magnesium, sleep tea etc yawn) but the most enjoyable & yet effective is Sleepy Time mumbles. I set my sleep timer for 10 or 15 minutes & fall asleep sometime before it ends. I have been a subscriber now for over a year & appreciate your comm... more

  • Dull lullaby but in a good way

    His monotonous drone is soothing to the eardrums and the topics of choice in his episodes are wonderful to listen to so send you off the slumberland. Loved listening to the Mass Effect episode! Love his mentions to Sophie as well, very sweet.

  • A gem of the modern human era.

    If I was asked, 80 years ago, to imagine the best fruit that future technologies would bare, I never would have imagined that drifting off to the whimsical improvisations of a silky voiced actor from the other side of the planet would be on the list. I would have been wrong.

    While sleepy podcasts are a dime a dozen now, Sleepytime Mumbles rises above the rest and serves as an auditory companion, holding your hand as it gently guides you into the sleepy realm.

    New listener - but the interview episode having other voices was too stimulating while trying to fall asleep.
