[@thebowstaffkid5908]

[@Ali_Sky_Violin]

Omg! Such a great idea 💡

[@alyxxa6182]

Yes! Obviously!! Hello! Where are pjs at???

[@mariecarie1]

Heather, your voice is so pleasant and cozy to listen to. Thank you for recording this lovely reading!

[@binj.4565]

I would defintely buy get sleepy pjs or tshirts. At 57 years old, i have always had sleep issues. A few months ago i heard something on a tv show about bedtime stories for adults. Ive tried everything and dont like artficial sleep help ie drink drugs etc 9ther than sleep tea herbal. Anyway i found Get Sleepy and while all the narrators are wonderful, i look forward to going to bed every night and hearing the intro and a story especially told by Thomas. There is something about his voice that truly has mafe an impact and al5hough i do not sleep right through yet, i qm definitely making progress and where i used to hate going to bed its now my favorite time of day. GET SLEEPY...❤❤❤❤

[@catcolb11]

Thank you Thomas and everyone at Get Sleepy! We appreciate all the hard work you do to make sleep easier. 💙 Good night everyone. Sleep well everyone 🧸🌠

[@dremaevette4487]

[@carolynraley4047]

The Automat -- my favorite T H I N G ! Thank you!

[@catcolb11]

It’s 4:45 in NYC and I’m overjoyed to hear about the Automat. I grew up in the 50s and I went to the Automat all the time as a poor student. The only problem with the story is that I listened to every word so, of course I couldn’t go to sleep. Now I’ll try! Thank you for a terrific story. A new documentary of the Automat by Lisa Hurwitz came out in the past two years which is absolutely terrific.

[@AliciaSteffann]

When I was writing the story, I consulted my voice teacher of many years, who has lived in the Upper West Side for decades, beginning, I think, in the 1950's. She was similarly fond of the automat and said that she missed it a lot because it was always "clinically clean and of COURSE full of THEATER PEOPLE." A ringing endorsement!

[@lunch8759]

these have been helping me a lot lately! thank you ❤️

[@speak2theresafox]

If I could program this to automatically play at bedtime, I would. Thank you for the best gift ever.

[@sarahhaley8352]

Outstanding! I've listened to this one several times. This is the first time I made it to the end of the story. Great pacing, soothing voice that's just monotone enough to fall asleep to. This little relaxing slice of a daily life is my favorite so far. I love and deeply appreciate this channel! Bought a couple of your shirts for sleeping, too!

[@Jennybeeeeee]

Goodnight everyone ❤

[@jgernaey1]

Great job Heather. I think you are my new favorite reader 😊

[@MarwaB-qv6mw]

Hi and thanks get sleepy you always help me and I didn't expect to be this much comments well maybe it's not everyone bed time 😪😴

[@birdiebees1111]

❤🎉I love this concept for a story. Anytime you can take me back to the Gilded Age, Roaring 20s, Pioneer Days- I am here for it!!! Keep these coming 🎉❤

[@firefly3519]

Hadn't heard of Automats before, but this makes me feel like I've actually experienced one - very nice!

[@michellekirwan-woods7623]

[@soniamf7925]

*_LIKES_* 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻❤️🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊✌🏻💯 *Dear Thomas and team, starting to listen now! Thank you heartly again! Warmest regards from Brasil.*

[@rdoc]

Tomas, love your program but there is a problem. You see, it is not just the stories that help you sleep. It is your voice that does the trick. No other voice works for me. I am sure I am not the only one.

[@dinabecque7019]

Pjs please

[@gavinbetancourt9649]

I lost my mom 2 weeks ago and have been having trouble sleeping. I don’t know what I would do without your account. Please make eye masks for sleeping so I can buy it and support some way. I tell everyone about your account, I’d love to get some useful merch

[@michaelaprocter4720]

Sorry for your loss ❤

[@sherriemartin7809]

I'm .... off.. to bed

[@alyxxa6182]

No offense. But I prefer male voices for sleeping. So, this one’s a no for me

[@poetryjones7946]

I can deal with female readers, but American accents drive me up the wall like chalk on a blackboard. I know, I’m awful. I did try to listen and this reader seemed to have a very expressive voice. I will always love this channel & appreciate you all. 🙏🏽🌙❤️

[@BlueSky_Overture]

thanks for the story, it'd be nice if you didn't use ai art

[@thorned10]

Unfortunately, I cannot listen to this reader. It sounds like she is trying to talk with no air in her lungs. Gaspy 💔

[@blancamena2078]

was not a bit impressed by this story!

[@kristasplendorini2330]

No

[@leahbrockman3905]

No.

[@beckynikkivicki9253]

No what?

[@carolejohnson1213]

There is no story, only music and static. Disappointed.
