You are a Roman sewer worker — nameless, thankless, forgotten. You crawl through the Cloaca Maxima, Rome’s grandest sewer, surrounded by filth, rot, and the slow erosion of your body and soul. There is no glory here. Only endurance.Told in a calm, slow voice with dark humor and brutal honesty, this 2-hour sleep video is not meant to lull you with fantasy — but to walk you gently into the truth of the past. Through disease, labor, decay, and death, you’ll learn what it meant to survive where history turns its face away.#HistoryForSleep #DrowsyHistorian #DarkHistory #RomanSewers #CloacaMaxima #SleepVideo #HistoricalStorytelling #SecondPersonNarrative #BrutalHistory #ForgottenLives #AncientRome #HistoricalImmersion

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.
