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 The Nearest Poll, published in 1906 and written by Robert

E. Piri,

this story follows some of the Arctic travels

that took place in the late 1800s and early 1900s.

My name is Teddy and I am to help people everywhere and 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.
