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.

Attention.

Oh, hang on.

Attention.

Rail travelers, platform paces, window gazers and armrest negotiators.

Have you heard?

The big railfare freeze is here.

Railfares have been frozen across England until March 2027 on standard class tickets, including off-peak, anytime, and season tickets.

For more information, visit nationalrail.co.uk. slash fairs freeze.

Teas and season exclusions apply.

Tonight's reading comes from

Birds in their nests.

Written by Mary Howard.

This book looks at the fascinating birds that live around us.

And of course, their nests. My name is Teddy,

and I am 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. The podcast is designed to play in the background while you slowly fall asleep.

Thank you to everybody who shared their words of gratitude with me during the week.

I'd like to send a thank you to all patrons and sponsors who continue to support the show financially with a monthly contribution, whether it's $1 or $5.

Your support allows me to bring out more episodes to you and those who need them.
