Welcome to Bedtime Stories for Everyone, in which nothing much happens. You feel good,

and then you fall asleep. I'm Catherine Nikolai. I write and read all the stories you hear on Nothing Much Happens.

Audio Engineering is by Bob Wittersheim.

We are bringing you an encore episode tonight, meaning that this story originally aired at some point in the past.

It could have been recorded with different equipment in a different location.

And since I'm a person and not a computer,

I sometimes sound just slightly different.

But the stories are always soothing and family-friendly,

and our wishes for you are always deep rest and sweet dreams.

Okay, so we are getting closer to 100 million downloads of nothing much happens.

And that's one way of saying that this works.

I will put you to sleep.

And all you need to do is listen. Just follow along with the sound of my

voice and will actually shift your brain activity and sleep will follow. I'll tell the story twice

and I'll go a little slower the second time through.

If you wake again in the night, don't hesitate to turn the story right back on,

or just think your way through any parts of it that you can remember.

Our story tonight is called Joyride,
