A little sleep hack I use: drop the speed to 0.85. The voice gets even more soothing, and I’m out like a light.

As a history buff, I have to say that the level of detail in this film is truly extraordinary. <br>The parallel storytelling, contrasting the “gilded cage” of Eleanora with the harsh reality of Jane, is brilliantly done. Highlighting details like the servant intelligence network gives a depth to the era that most other documentaries completely miss. Excellent work. <br>You inspire my channel so much. Thanks, goodnight everyone

I wake up during the night around (2 am) most night and can't fall asleep. I used to watch reruns of sitcoms to fall asleep. I listen to your podcast instead. Then in the morning try to find where I drifted off and listen to what I missed.

Gradually I listen to it as a story for entertainment rather than for sleep, the stories you tell are really fascinating

I put this on to fall asleep and ended up staying awake because it was too fascinating 😂 Love your storytelling style!

Victorian social rules were so strict and detailed! It’s crazy how much effort people had to put just to avoid a single faux pas.

Forget MI6. The most effective intelligence network in history was apparently a group of Victorian ladies' maids trading gossip over tea. The way they knew everything before their employers did is both terrifying and hilarious. Fantastic video!

When I can’t sleep, I put these on at 0.95 speed. The gentle pacing helps ease me into rest without even realizing it.

Listening while folding laundry. Victorian people were so committed to etiquette it almost sounds like social combat.
