In this richly illustrated video, you’ll spend a morning, a noon, a twilight, and a nightfall in a single bustling 19th-century café, where painters soak bread in cheap coffee, poets whisper to their absinthe, and strangers become a kind of family for a few shared hours.This isn’t a tour. It’s an invitation — to listen, observe, and drift through time with soft-spoken detail and gentle absurdity. Everyone here is a character. Including you.Perfect for relaxing, dreaming, or falling asleep to the quiet murmur of another century.#ParisHistory #19thCenturyLife #CafeCulture #CozyVibes #SlowLiving #HistoricalFiction #ArtAndCoffee #SleepVideo #DrowsyHistorian #VictorianEra #AnimatedHistory #RelaxingVisuals #AmbientStorytelling #IllustratedHistory

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.
