  • Asked Siri to play boring news

    Well I stumbled upon this podcast because Siri accidentally heard me say “Play boring news” 😂. And she started to play this podcast. Although it isn’t really news related this podcast, it is boring just as advertised🥱.

    But it is boring in a soothing way.
