| The Science of Sleep and Dreams | Documentary Story for Sleep | 02 Jun 2024 | 00:57:47 | |
In this episode, I take you on a new exploration journey, to discover what science can tell us about sleep and dreams: What happens when we sleep? What are the phases of sleep and the difference between quiescent sleep and paradoxical/REM sleep? Why do we need it? What are intermediary states of consciousness like sleepwalking or lucid dreaming? I also tell you about the origins of dreams, their possible functions, and how neurobiology, psychoanalysis, psychology, religion, or literature approached them.

In this soft-spoken bedtime story, I tell you about various Greek myths.

| Greek Myths: Pandora's Box, Icarus, Sisyphus and Danaïdes | Sleepy Mythology Stories | 12 May 2024 | 00:53:22 | |
In this soft-spoken bedtime story, I tell you about four Greek myths: · Pandora and her jar (or box), which according to Hesiod contained countless plagues that she let escape, providing a backstory for the existence of suffering in human life. This myth works as a "theodicy" (a backstory or an argument that explains why evil is part of the human condition when God(s) would have the power to avoid it). It is also connected to the biblical character of Eve, and scratching the surface by looking at different versions of this myth reveals a more ambivalent figure. · The tragedy of the Danaïdes, daughters of King Danaus condemned to a futile task forever for the murders of their husbands. · Sisyphus, the king of Corinth, who was sentenced to another eternity of useless work for defying Zeus and cheating death. He was punished for his hubris: the overconfidence that made him lose touch with the reality of his condition. · Icarus, the young man who flew too close to the sun and fell, is another example of hubris.

| A Night on the Orient Express and History of Railroads | Sleepy Train Ride | 28 Apr 2024 | 00:48:52 | |
This bedtime story is about the mythical Orient Express service and the history of railways. Discover where the Orient Express came from: the story takes us to the early development of trains in Great Britain, the railroad mania of the 19th Century, the conquest of the Far West, the invention of luxury sleeping cars in the US by George Pullman, and the creation of the Compagnie des Wagons-Lits. For almost a century, the Orient Express was a link between two corners of Europe and connected capitals from the Belle Epoque to the 1970s, adapting to wars, the redrawing of frontiers, political changes, and technical revolutions. Relive this epic that inspired artists, adventurers, and writers like Agatha Christie.

| Sleep Mystery Stories: Voynich Manuscript, Phaistos Disk, Sailing Stones | 03 Mar 2024 | 00:59:40 | |
In this soft-spoken bedtime story, I tell you about historical and scientific mysteries and their context: - The Voynich Manuscript, a strange codex apparently from the early 15th Century, written in an unknown language. - The Phaistos Disc, an artifact discovered in Crete in the ruins of a Minoan palace, with what looks like a script, but that has always resisted attempts at deciphering it. - The Sailing Stones from the Racetrack Playa, California, a rare geological phenomenon that was finally explained over the past few decades.

| History of Medicine | Story for Sleep | 25 Feb 2024 | 01:17:15 | |
This bedtime story is about medicine and healing since the Neolithic. I will tell you about Ancient Mesopotamia and the first diagnosis and prescriptions, Ancient Egypt and the figure of Imhotep, India, and the principles of Ayurveda, or Chinese Medicine including Moxibustion and Acupuncture. We also take a look at medicine in Ancient Greece and Rome, including important figures like Hippocrates and Galen, and how this legacy passed on and was further developed in the Islamic World, Byzantium, and Medieval Europe. Then we reach the Renaissance and the steps that would lead to an increasingly scientific approach to medicine and the many discoveries of the 19th and 20th centuries, that came with important social change and professionalization (I tell you at the end about scientists like Pasteur or Koch, and Florence Nightingale, the founder of modern nursing).

| Stonehenge and its Ancient Mysteries | Sleep History | 18 Feb 2024 | 00:55:51 | |
In tonight's story, I discuss the long history of Stonehenge, from the first works on the site by people from the Windmill Hill culture around 3100 BC, to the multiple works and rearrangements that took place until 1600 BC. After this, Stonehenge continued to live a life of its own and was adopted by the druids, became a legendary monument, and revealed extraordinary secrets since the 20th century. After Stonehenge, I also tell you of Skara Brae, a very well preserved neolithic village in the Orkney Islands (Scotland), and we explore its 5000-year-old houses.

This episode details three different historical mysteries. First, we will relive the voyage of the Donner Party, a group of migrants who traveled from Illinois to California in 1846, but did not manage to reach their destination before the winter and had to set camp in the Sierra Nevada, until they were rescued in 1847. Second, we will travel to Oak Island, a small island in Nova Scotia that has become famous as a place where a fabulous treasure or even historical artifacts would be hidden. Finally, I will tell you of the Bermuda Triangle, the concept from the 1950s and 60s that a large area of the Atlantic, East of Florida, saw too many disappearances of ships and aircraft.

For tonight's sleep-inducing talk, I invite you for a long moment in the woods.

We review extraordinary trees too: Hyperion, the tallest tree in the world, Methuselah, the oldest independent tree (both in California); the Arbol de Tule, the stouter known tree (Mexico), and extremely old clonal colonies like Old Tjikko in Sweden and Pando in Utah.

| History of the Vikings | Documentary Story for Sleep | 01 Sep 2024 | 00:57:31 | |
In this soft-spoken bedtime story, I tell you about the History of the Norsemen in the Middle Ages. At the end of the Eighth Century, they embarked on raids, explorations, and conquests farther and farther from their homelands in Scandinavia. This took them as far east as the Volga River in Russia and Byzantium, and as far west as America, even though they did not stay there for long. They founded colonies such as Iceland or Vineland in Newfoundland, Canada, created new states such as the Kievan Rus', and settled in regions like Yorkshire or Normandy. We explore the reasons why they suddenly became outward-looking, what their societies were like, and how things unfolded until Christianization and the formation of larger kingdoms in Scandinavia (in Norway, Sweden, and Denmark), that put an end to the Viking Age.

| Three Historical Mysteries: Oracle of Delphi, Changelings and Grand Duchess Anastasia | 08 Sep 2024 | 01:07:31 | |
In these three new historical mysteries, I tell you about the Pythia, the High Priestess of Apollo in Delphi, who for more than a millennium delivered sought-after prophecies in a state of frenzy - but the Oracle may have been more ancient than Classical Greece. The second story is about the myth of changelings, that is to say newborns, or young children that would have been exchanged by fairies, or trolls in the Scandinavian version. Why this belief, and how did it appear? I also added a touch of true crime with the story of Bridget Cleary, a woman murdered in 1895 because she was believed to be a changeling. The third story takes us from Russia and Germany to the USA in the 20th Century: who were all these women claiming to be Grand Duchess Anastasia, the youngest daughter of the last Tsar of Russia, miraculously alive? This modern mystery found an answer thanks to DNA, I tell you how, and a little bit about Eugenia Smith or Anna Anderson.

We discuss plate tectonics and continental drift, the chemical elements our planet is made of, its temperature, its future in several billion years, its magnetic field and how it could be generated by its metallic core, and many more things.
