#188 - The Remarkable Rocket

#188 - The Remarkable Rocket

A delightful sleepy fairy tale by Oscar Wilde parodying 19th century aristocracy.

It's pride month and I had a little fun making a short video with some old pictures from back when I came out in the late 80s. If you'd like to see it, it's up on TikTok at https://www.tiktok.com/@listentosleep/video/7105071890930208042 or on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/p/CeWi0I1pW31/.

If the podcast helps you sleep, would you consider supporting it with $3 a month? You'll get new episodes a day earlier with no ads or introductions, an immediate download of the Alice's Adventures in Wonderland audiobook and you'll be helping me to get closer to realizing my dream of having Listen To Sleep be my full-time endeavor. You can join or find more information at https://www.listentosleep.com/support/.

You can also buy a shareable audiobook of the longer books I read on Listen To Sleep Plus. It's another way to support the podcast and get some extra bedtime stories without a monthly subscription. Each one is available to own for just $5.50 as chapterized mp3s that will play on any MP3 player. You can find them at https://www.listentosleep.com/store.

You can read this story (and other classics from the public domain) by downloading it for free at https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/902.

Sleep well.💜
