Two-hour histories of medicine, told slowly and quietly, to help you fall asleep. Plague, opium, vaccines, the apothecary, anaesthesia, the heart — each episode is a calm, low-volume bedtime documentary about how medicine came to be, researched and fact-checked with a practising hospital pharmacist. No cliffhangers, no jokes that need you awake, no sudden noises: a warm, even narration over a soft fireside bed, with long quiet gaps between chapters so you can drift off at any point. That's the whole idea. New episode every week. Video versions on YouTube: youtube.com/@SleepyhistoryofMedicine
