Why You Wouldn't Survive Aboard a WWII U-Boat | History For Sleep

Get early episodes & bonus perks on Patreon: https://patreon.com/DrowsyHistorianTonight, we descend into the silent, rusted depths of the North Atlantic — not as a hero, not as a commander, but as a barely-considered number aboard a German U-Boat in WWII. Cramped quarters. Rotting food. One malfunctioning toilet. Fifty men and no doctor. You won’t fire torpedoes at glory — you’ll fight carbon dioxide, sleep deprivation, and your own unraveling mind.This isn’t a war story with medals. This is slow suffocation with paperwork. A floating coffin that creaks louder the longer you listen.#WWII #SubmarineHistory #SleepVideo #DarkHistory #MilitaryHistory #DrowsyHistorian #HistoricalDocumentary #WWIISubmarine #UBoat #HistoryForSleep #GrimHistory #WarStories #SurvivalHistory

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.
