(Short Music) Audio Recordings Monday’s Sleepy Boring Objects #1622 Let Me Bore You To Sleep Jason Newland 1st June 2026

Jason Newland, creator of the long-running podcast 'Let Me Bore You To Sleep,' delivers a deeply personal and unexpectedly candid episode that traces his 20-year journey of creating sleep and hypnosis recordings. Far from a simple audio monotony, the episode reveals a man who has spent decades quietly helping people through chronic pain, anxiety, and trauma—often in the most unglamorous conditions. He recounts recording in noisy homes, under the strain of a greedy dog, and even in a Buddhist center cabin at midnight, all while battling unreliable tech, broken microphones, and the emotional toll of being misunderstood. The most striking revelation? A woman with terminal illness, who despised him at first, later wrote to say she laughed during hospital tests—something she hadn’t done in years—after a three-hour session that pushed her past her fear. This moment, and others like it, expose the quiet power of persistence, empathy, and the unprofessional, human voice that has become his signature. Despite minimal views, low revenue, and technical chaos, Jason’s work has touched lives for over two decades—proof that impact doesn’t require polish, just presence.
