I’ve exhausted things I can sleep to on Netflix, and it’s literally impossible to sleep to things on Prime (so I barely watch anything there; it’s not worth falling asleep to something I like, since I might be punished for it), so I’ve started putting on YouTube in the evenings since it won’t wake me with silence at 4am.

I’ve a few voices I love listening to, but I’d like even more.

Which YouTubers do you recommend who:

  1. Have smooth, hypnotic voices,

  2. have content that won’t give me uncomfortable dreams (I’m a very visual, realistic, and impressionable dreamer), and

  3. have channels I’ll want to listen to when awake? (eta I like sciences and news mostly, a bit of fiction (scifi, horror, nf), gaming, other nerdy things, but never romance, pop culture , or reality tv).

I kinda need all 3.

    My big two are long form chemistry videos (codyslab, nilered) and old archived hours of the first version of the AI show Nothing Forever. Very easy listening IMO and should hit most of your bases. Maybe also look for podcasts on a topic you like, those can be hours long
