This is an amazing podcast. I fell asleep like a baby because of Benjamin’s voice. I woke up in the middle of the night. It was there. This is a podcast I’d recommend for those who don’t sleep well.
I love the topics and Benjamin’s relaxing voice, the facts are always fluent and well chosen, but when I’m half asleep and it rolls over to the next episode I don’t particularly want to be jerked awake by a cash register sound effect in a lively ad for shopify that ruins my entire attempt to get un disturbed sleep. I love the show in general but the ads can really ruin my hole opinion of it.
I love this podcast and it helps me sleep!
Tip for the developers: youre losing a lot of interest from people complaining about ads, just get Benjamin boster to read them so it still sounds boring and soothing.
I like it check out the tiger tales podcast
I’m so glad I found this. I am finally drifting off to sleep like a “normal”person😂
