They Built the Skyline: The Untold Stories of NYC’s Construction Workers

This longform sleep story mixes real history, quiet humor, and soft storytelling to help you wind down while learning something you can casually mention in your next conversation... or dream about.

Om Podcasten

Welcome to Boring History to Sleep — the only show where falling asleep in the middle is not only allowed… it’s encouraged. Each episode takes you on a slow, uneventful stroll through the most yawn-worthy corners of the past: treaties nobody remembers, kings who ruled for three weeks, and revolutions that never really got started. Delivered in the softest, most sleep-inducing voice we could find, this show is like warm milk with a side of ancient trivia. Perfect for insomniacs, history nerds, and anyone who thinks a Roman tax policy discussion sounds like a lullaby. Lay back, close your eyes
