IDEA FOR YOU!
After listening to your most recent episode (#83) how you like to do something with keyboard sounds.
Maybe you can play text based adventure like “Zork” that way you can read the story and have typing sounds.
Keep it up.
Thank you
Kyle.

Kyle,
Thanks for the great suggestion. I tried Zork on my iPad but it did not work properly although it did work properly on my laptop. Unfortunately I never bring my laptop near my microphones due to fan noises and hard-drive whirling noise. I like this idea so I will be on the alert for text based games that will work with my iPad.
Your request did inspire me to create an episode with keyboard sounds, I created it as a bonus episode for the Sleep Whispers Bonus Podcast. I tried a mechanical keyboard first but it was too noisy, so I switched to a chiclet keyboard.
Thanks again for the suggestion!

Hello Mike,
Glad you like the podcast. I don’t have a bio posted anywhere, sorry. I am in the U.S. and can’t remember if I ever let it slip what general region I am in. Probably. Well, I did mention sledding recently, so that narrows it down to about 40 states…or less.

Really enjoy your podcast. I stumbled upon your podcast before I knew asmr was a thing. Since, I’ve tried listening to different artists now and again. There are some talented artists but I inevitably revert back to you. Please take care of that voice of yours and never stop producing content! I think it’s a true talent to be able to take a quote that is only one line, and talk about it for over 30 minutes. No critism, but I will say your best content is when you are truly excited about the topic. Even through whispers I can hear your interest level and all of my favorite episodes are when you are clearly excited to share with the audience. Keep it up!

Curt,
Glad you don’t mind me sharing my excitement about things. I sort of should hide my excitement because I’m trying to lull you to sleep, not share my excitement about something. Oh well, I stink at hiding it so that is great to know you enjoy it.

I have just discovered your “Whispers and I love them. Thank you so much. Such a great idea and so well done. Either I sleep or at least relax and get diverted from endless planning, reviewing worrying which make for horrible restless nights. Wasn’t so keen on trivia because the answering kept me too alert but I’ve liked everything else. Thanks again. please keep whispering! I’m spreading the word to my sleepless friends. Best swishes Debbie

Thank you so very much Harris! I have had trouble falling asleep in the past because of a tragedy that I experienced and my brain wanting to relive it and think about it at bedtime. Your podcast gives me something to concentrate on that is relaxing and mildly interesting, a perfect brain hack! I feel safe, knowing there will be no surprises, no commercials. You are much appreciated!

Hi Harris
I’m a long time insominiac and I, by chance, stumbled across your whispered ramblings a couple of months ago. Being Britsh gushing is not natural to me but they have, simply, changed my life. Going to bed and to sleep is now a pleasure and I recommend it to everyone often! I just wish i could stay awake long enough to hear all about dwarfs and roller coasters 😀So here in Scotland you have a dedicated listener – thank you.
