I must stress this has nothing to do with being boring, what I’m interestedare folks who lulllyou to sleep through the smoothness and flow and safety you feel from their sustained speech independant from their content.
- If you had to pinpoint, what about their voice or schtick makes them so hypnotic…?

John Hopkins on Short History Of has the most beautiful soothing voice.
For me, it’s always been Phoebe Judge from the podcast Criminal.
And this is love!
Sean Caroll - intonation and cadence. [subject matter awesome. must. stay. awake]
The narrator from Fall of Civilization is very relaxing to listen to
Seconded. It’s a very soothing show for being distracted enough to doze off.
Yeah good call. I kinda forget he exists and then once every six months he pops up to deliver three hours of perfect storytelling
In Deep Geek on YouTube. Content on LotR, SoIaF, and other fantasy. He’s also read some stories as Audio books.
VaatiVidya (FromSoft game lore videos) and Voices of the Past (narration of primary historical sources) for sure.
Tim from Grand Illusions https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iCzJUCDjp0E
Drew Ackerman from the Sleep With Me podcast. This is in direct defiance of your post, though. He self describes as the world’s most boring person.
Sebastian Lague does graphics/interactive programming with a good dose of poetry and has a very soothing voice. Some of his videos are absolutely fabulous
avery truffleman omg she could read the phonebook and i’m in for it. love her voice
“This is 99% Invisible, I’m Roman Mars”
Art Bell. His voice is just buttery silk, the content is batshit crazy, and it was always a late-night show.
Maybe this is too obvious, but I’m surprised no one has said Joe Pera yet.
