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 readings come from A Horse's Tale by Mark Twain.

Published in 1908, the story is told in the voice of Soldier Boy,

a horse that is stationed at a frontier outpost with the US 7th Cavalry.

Soldier Boy is also Buffalo Bill's favourite horse.

My name is Teddy and I aim to help people everywhere get a good night's rest so they can

have a productive day and achieve whatever they need to achieve.

I read a different story every episode to help you get a good night's rest.

It is designed to play in the background as you slowly fall asleep.

Every episode tells a different story and you're welcome to listen to whichever one works for you.

My goal with this podcast is to help people everywhere get the good night's rest that they need.

And if the podcast is helpful to you, I'd love your help in helping me achieve this.

Please jump into iTunes, Spotify, or wherever you're listening.

You would be surprised at how helpful this is.

It's a small thing but does help me reach people who need a good night's rest.

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

Soldier Boy, privately to himself.

I am Buffalo Bill's horse. I have spent my life under his saddle with him in it too.
