Which YouTuber's voice can lull you to sleep? (lemmy.world)

I’ve exhausted things I can sleep to on Netflix, and it’s literally impossible to sleep to things on Prime (so I barely watch anything there; it’s not worth falling asleep to something I like, since I might be punished for it), so I’ve started putting on YouTube in the evenings since it won’t wake me with silence at 4am.

I’ve a few voices I love listening to, but I’d like even more.

Which YouTubers do you recommend who:

Have smooth, hypnotic voices,
have content that won’t give me uncomfortable dreams (I’m a very visual, realistic, and impressionable dreamer), and
have channels I’ll want to listen to when awake? (eta I like sciences and news mostly, a bit of fiction (scifi, horror, nf), gaming, other nerdy things, but never romance, pop culture , or reality tv).

I kinda need all 3.

I go to sleep with the History of Philosophy: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/history-of-philosophy-without-any-gaps/id396903391.

Everyone has different things they want for going to sleep, and this might not be right for you. But for me this is perfect because:

its just the right level of boring. If it were any more interesting id stay awake to listen, if it were any more boring I’d turn it off.
its not multiple people talking, because my brain thinks it needs to stay awake to be part of the conversation.
i cant do video, needs to be audio.
his voice is reasonably relaxing.

I seriously can barely get through 1 or 1 episodes before going to sleep. Another similar one is Dan Carlin’s Hardcore History.
