Started as my sleep podcast

I was using this to fall asleep, and then it was so good i became interested in cereal and stayed awake to listen.

don’t care for cereal, this is perfect

I have neither interest in nor knowledge of cereal. That’s why this is my perfect sleep podcast. I’m never afraid to miss something, my disinterest in the topic means no emotional stakes, I can choose to follow the narrative for my information craving ADHD brain or zone out and just enjoy the voices: Dan’s calm and mucnhy and Juston’s deep and crusty. 10/10 bowl.

Mostly amazing

I love this podcast, I think Dan and Justin are amazing hosts, and they create an amazing vibe on this podcast!!
However, the listener call-in part cringes me right out. I skip it when I can, but always find myself waking up during the call-in part when I’m listening to this podcast for sleeping. I’m glad that they seem to be phasing this out in the more recent episodes.
