WikiSleep

WikiSleep is a simple yet effective sleep app and podcast designed to help people with busy or curious brains relax and unwind.

Find the App at WIKISLEEP.COM and Try At No Cost Today.

Discover happier, more restful sleep through a constantly growing selection of fun sleep stories, biographies, weird histories, easy meditations and other curiosities—all designed to help you relax and unwind. Unlike many other sleep apps that rely heavily on tricks or deep meditation, our content works on the simple principle of diversion. The stories we provide are interesting enough to grab your attention—but calm enough that you can drift off while listening.

We offer stories that are unusual for sleep apps, such as biographies of fascinating people like The Notorious B.I.G., Marie Antoinette or Bob Ross—or weird histories of everyday things like wine or cameras. Regardless of the story, every episode is delivered in a calm and soothing way.

WHAT YOU’LL FIND:

A growing list of stories, capers, histories, biographies, ambient sounds, meditations, breath exercises for anxiety, Spanish and French episodes…plus much more.

Some of our most favorited episodes include:

• The Life & Times of Bob Ross

• Anthony Bourdain: Visionary & Humanist

• The Salem Witch Trials

• The Notorious B.I.G.

• Sleepy Penguin Visualization

This podcast may use tracking and attribution and dynamic content insertion

Stats: Statistics are produced by Acast to help WikiSleep to understand how many downloads it is getting, or how many people are listening. Your device’s IP address and user agent is used to help calculate this figure. Acast is IAB v2 certified.

Tracking and attribution: Acast or its partners may connect the fact you listened to this podcast to an action elsewhere on the internet. For example - it may spot a device that downloaded an episode of WikiSleep later visited the website of an advertiser; or it may track that a device that listened to WikiSleep also listened to a different show. This form of attribution is used to measure advertising effectiveness.

Dynamic content insertion: Acast may use limited data that they know about you - the device you’re using, the approximate location you’re in, or other data that can be derived from this, like the current weather forecast for your area - to change parts of the audio. WikiSleep may do this for advertising or for other forms of content, like news stories.

WikiSleep is able to use the above tools since its podcast host or measurement company offers this service. It doesn’t mean that this individual podcast uses them, or has access to this functionality. We use open data.
