- Let's saw some sleepy wood with more from this guide to getting crafty. This time, we finish fitting out our workshop with custom benches, cabinets and helpful devices, store our tools neatly, and eschew the useless dazzle of fancy toolchests. Efficiency, and the amateur's pocketbook, demand simplicity.
Lee Rosevere, composer of much of the background music on this podcast, has gifted us with a new work called "Timeless." So lovely! So chill! If you're interested in discovering more of his music (without me babbling over it), check out: https://leerosevere.bandcamp.com

This time, churches as a place to rest and drink heartily, the romance of the great coaching inns, ale's healthful benefits, and unseemly behavior for a boozy barbershop. Cheers!

Sobre Boring Books for Bedtime Readings to Help You Sleep
Boring Books for Bedtime is a weekly, ad-free, AI-free sleep podcast in which we calmly, quietly read something rather boring to silence the brain chatter keeping you awake. Think Aristotle, Thoreau, and whoever wrote the 1897 Sears Catalog—mostly nonfiction, mostly old, a perfect balance of vaguely-but-not-too interesting.
If you're on Team Sleepless, lie back, take a deep breath, and let us read you to rest.
