    Axolotls, Lake Xochimilco, and Lake Texcoco

    In this episode of the I Can’t Sleep Podcast, drift off while learning about axolotls, Lake Xochimilco, and Lake Texcoco. Why three topics this time? Well, the first two weren’t quite long enough, so here we are. Thankfully, they’re all connected—axolotls and their habitats. These fascinating creatures are even more incredible than I expected—they can regrow limbs and parts of their brain! Amazing, right? Anyway, I know I just hyped this one up, so send me a message if you made it all the way through without falling asleep. Happy sleeping! Got a topic you’re dying to hear?

    UFOs

    In this episode of the I Can’t Sleep Podcast, drift off to sleep while learning about UFOs. Are they real? Are they watching us? Too spooky for bedtime? Don’t worry—I’m not here to convince you to believe in little green men. Maybe UFOs aren’t your thing, and you’re thinking, “Why not an episode about giraffes? Giraffes are harmless and tall, right?” Well, I’m not sure I have a good answer for that. Sometimes, I just pick a topic because it feels right, and tonight, it’s UFOs. But rest assured, this episode is as boring as ever, guaranteed to lull you into dreamland. Happy sleeping! Got a topic you’re dying to hear?

    Marlboro College

    In this episode of the I Can’t Sleep Podcast, drift off while learning about Marlboro College, the music festival it hosted, and the charming town of Marlboro, Vermont. This intentionally small college had a profound impact on the lives of its students. Many renowned musicians and creators visited or attended Marlboro, fostering meaningful collaborations with its students and staff. While the first couple of articles might hold your interest, by the third, you’ll likely find yourself dozing off to details about census records and dates.
