You’ve landed a coveted job painting glowing numbers onto watch dials — patriotic work, scientific work, the kind of job they say is good for you. But what they don’t say is what happens next. Your bones begin to ache. Your teeth fall out. And no one listens. Not until it’s too late.This is the story of the Radium Girls — told in quiet detail and dark truth. It’s not a tale of triumph. It’s a slow unraveling of trust, health, and humanity. From factory floors to silent courtrooms, this immersive second-person narrative walks you through the beauty and horror of one of the 20th century’s most haunting labor tragedies.#RadiumGirls #HistoricalNarrative #DrowsyHistorian #SleepVideo #IndustrialHistory #TrueHistory #SecondPersonNarrative #QuietHorror #RadiationPoisoning #WomenInHistory #LaborRights #ASMRHistory

Om Podcasten

History For Sleep delivers slow, calm, and slightly unsettling historical storytelling that makes dozing off educationally depressing. Whether you're hearing about plagues, peasant life, or papal trials, it's all narrated at a soothing pace with a dry wit designed to lull you into unconsciousness. Brought to you by the Drowsy Historian, each episode is 1–2 hours of immersive bedtime history with just enough absurd detail to keep you listening — until you aren’t.
