I greatly enjoy these stories & Joe’s calming voice. Now when my grandchildren visit they listen as well. They have a routine now which includes a cup of lavender tea and a story by Fireside and promptly fall asleep! My grandson has Autism and even he listens and falls asleep quickly! I usually listen to one story then fall asleep during the next one since I try to pay attention to the story line but it does calm me and get me ready for a good nights sleep! Thank you for all you do!
Always nice to hear you read. Your recent “Scale” talk was soothing and helpful for when one feels what they are or do doesn’t matter in the scheme of things. Everyone can be a true spirit
Thank you for coming back Joe!! I loved getting the second part to the Viking story!! Now I need part three!! You are very appreciated, wanted, and needed!! My husband is out of town a lot for work, and your stories help me fall asleep when he can’t be here with me. Thank you for the hard work you put into these stories!! I hope you are able to continue doing stories long term because you have a gift that is helping more people than you could ever know!! I love listening to Joe’s voice and hearing the stories. He has such a peaceful, soothing voice!! I really hope he comes out with more stories…BUT I can never finish a story!! I always fall asleep within 10 minutes!! 😂 I’ve listened to one story all week and still haven’t finished it! Last week I listened to the story during the day so I could hear the whole thing!!! He puts me to sleep in no time!! I work at a daycare, and today, I am letting them listen to one of his children stories, and they have never laid so still before falling asleep!!!
This is a great podcast man, you have a great story telling voice and tone. I was so happy when you came back. Everything about it makes it great to sleep please keep it up!!
Love Joe from beginning to, well, when I inevitably fall asleep. I’d love to see more of a selection for adults that aren’t scary/spooky/creepy, but the stories for everyone are great and aside from that single gripe this podcast earns five stars from a very picky sleep/podcast listener!
I love a well done reading, not too fast, not too slow. Pronunciation was perfect and so was the inflection. It was a pleasure to listen to
Our family loves your podcasts! My son begs to lay by the fireplace and snuggle up on the couch and listen to your podcasts! Please keep going we do love these and will continue to listen as long as you make podcasts!
I absolutely adore your voice. Its both peaceful and illustrative. Your story selections are perfect— something for everyone. I’ll be sad when I finish all 101. Hope you are doing well and know that this Podcast is a real treasure. Thank You for It. 10/14/22: Update: Missed you & sooo Glad to Hear more Viking stories in your voice!
I’m so happy to see Joe back to posting episodes. My kiddo and I both enjoy listening at bedtime to wind down. 100/10 would recommend 😁
I’m so glad Joe is back. This is one of my favorites podcasts for my insomnia. It works! Joe has the perfect voice & his stories are just right for lulling me to sleep. I check his site often to see if a new episode has been released because I know listening to him will help me have a good night’s sleep.
I can’t begin to tell you how much I enjoy your podcast. It’s lovely! I especially enjoyed “Benjamin Button”, which I listened to last night and again this morning. Your voice is so soothing yet melodic & your readings a profoundly well done. Thank you! ‘TheCanterville Ghost’ is also wonderful! Keep doing what you’re doing, we love it!
I’ve only recently discovered this podcast, and have really enjoyed the stories. The background noise of the fire is such a nice touch. The last couple of years have honestly messed with my sleep and it’s great that there are people out there like Joe, that are helping people like me just feel a little less alone in the dark. Hope you make some more of these Joe, you’ve done a great job, and hope you know that you’re making a difference
You are absolutely incredible. I can’t tell you how much your sessions have helped me gain peace and solitude, allowing a safe space to fall asleep in. Thank you so so so much for your most recent update. Thank you for reminding me to always hold on to hope. I just knew you would come back. You are amazing. This community is all because of your work. Thank you a million for your voice, candid truth, and the dedicated time and care you put into all of this. Now off to sleep for me! Full of hope and gratitude ☺️💤
Sending good thoughts your way. The new career sounds amazing. Look forward to following your journey. I have enjoyed and benefited from the fireside stories. Keep on keeping on.
Very excited to find such a great story podcast. Content, delivery, and voice are outstanding. I only wish I would have found it sooner.
I’ve been listening to these sleep stories for about a week now and I’ve never seen something work this well! I can never seem to get past the first few minutes before I’m knocked out asleep. Please do continue with these lovely sleep stories!!!
Finally I found the perfect narrator with the perfect bedtime stories. I hope there’s more to come.

I love this podcast I mean I put this on for me in sleep or when I’m still awake. I mean my mom loves this podcast already and she told me of the podcast at first! Anyways you are the best fit for this storytelling job! Keep up the great work👌
I enjoy listening to stories I would not normally read. Not too long, not too short. He has a good voice for narration
Nice voice, and stories that are engaging enough so as to not be boring. Great podcast, wish he would keep uploading!

This guy is an amazing narrator and his impressions and voices are great. All the stories have been interesting and well done. I highly recommend all of his podcasts. I hope he keeps doing more.
This has helped my anxiety and has allowed me to fall asleep very fast and to sleep deeply. I needed this :). Hope you start making new episodes soon. I really like the sci-fi ones, especially ones dealing with space.
I feel remiss in not writing sooner, I have been listening to you on Spotify for most of a month. Interestingly, I am not using the podcasts as a sleep aid - I like them when I’m driving. I have not availed myself of the meditations and have only listened to the kid friendly ones a bit with my children. This has been more for me - I started with the Legend of Sleepy Hollow, followed with Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, dipped in Dickens, Fitzgerald, and more recently have enjoyed Feline Red and am in the middle of Keira’s Quest (what an awesome reading of the Guj part - the assistant to the witch queen!) I really appreciate the care you take with your readings - how you honor each character and each writer. Really good stuff Joe - thank you!
