Hello...again! Need something to listen to while you fall asleep? In this episode of Droolish, I ramble through NFL Week 3 power rankings, betting lines, AI, smartphones, and whatever else finds its way into my brain — all accompanied by steady rain sounds to help you relax, unwind, and hopefully fall asleep. Droolish is a sleep and relaxation podcast for people who like having someone quietly talking in the background while trying to sleep. In today's episode, I primarily focus my energy on continuing to pinpoint what I think are the true relative NFL power rankings / power tiers, based on where I had each team after Week 2. I'm mostly using what I know, what I see, the eye test, and whatever data comes in to adjust the tiers relative to one another. From there, I start looking at the upcoming NFL games and scouting sportsbook lines that simply don't seem to match what I'm seeing. So yes: sleep-inducing football analysis. I also review my bets from last week — and my UNDERDOG PICKS WERE SPICY!** — before working through my initial and official NFL Week 3 bets. If you'd like me to share the power rankings chart I'm using, email me at droolishpodcast@gmail.com and I'll send it over. Later, I wander into an idea I wrote about nearly 15 years ago that was originally a joke but, looking back, maybe humanity would've been better off adopting it: SPA — Smartphones Anonymous. And eventually I have a conversation with AI that somehow manages to uncover a few ideas that may or may not have shifted my DNA. Normal Droolish stuff. NOTE: Only 7 episodes remain. About Droolish Droolish is a sleep and relaxation podcast designed to help you fall asleep, relax, and quiet an overactive mind. Episodes combine my naturally sleepy voice, long-form rambling and conversation, and background sounds — usually steady rain — while I talk about sports, technology, ideas, life, and whatever happens to be occupying my brain. If meditation isn't really your thing and you'd rather fall asleep listening to someone talk about something mildly interesting, this might be for you. I also categorize Droolish as ASMR-adjacent because the purpose of my voice and the background sounds is to create a calming environment for relaxation, insomnia, and sleep.
