Hello, welcome to the Bore You to Sleep podcast, the podcast that will hopefully help you get to sleep.

I am going to read an open source book, one that is not particularly interesting, but one that is

hopefully boring enough to get you to sleep.

Tonight's reading comes from Representative Men, seven lectures by Ralph Waldo Emerson.

My name is Teddy, and I aim to help people everywhere get a good night's rest.

Sleep is so important, and my mission is to help you get the rest that you need.

Each episode is designed to play in the background

while you slowly fall asleep.

Special thanks to listeners for your lovely reviews this week.

Hector for your review on Cast Box.

Benson R for your review on Podbean.

iTunes listener, Ginger 5907.

Kvan for your shout out on Instagram.

Massive thank you also to Rebecca Hammer for becoming a new Patreon and sponsoring the show. Thank you also to all the

other patrons and anchor sponsors for continuing to support the show. The podcast is completely free

and it's the support from listeners that allows me to keep bringing out more episodes.

If the podcast helps, a fantastic way to say thank you

is to tell a friend who might also need help with their sleep.

Please also subscribe and leave a review. It really does help out. If you would like,

you can also say hello at bore you to sleep.com where you can support the podcast. I'm also now

on Twitter and Instagram at Boryutasleep. In the meantime, I'm also on Twitter and Instagram at Bore You to Sleep.

In the meantime, lie back, relax and enjoy the ratings.
