Greek Mythology ASMR - The Odyssey (sleep story, drawing, painting)

In this male soft spoken ASMR sleep story about Mythology, I tell you the story of the Odyssey, and as in previous mythology video I discuss a few historical and literary aspects. If you want to know about the lotus-eaters, the cyclopes, the sirens, Aeolus, Circe, Scylla and Charybdis, Calypso and many more things, relax and enjoy the long journey Odysseus will have to endure to be reunited with his wife Penelope and his son Telemachus.

- The Twelve Labours of Heracles: • ASMR - The Twelve Labo...

You are so good, if people dont like it, then dont watch it...keep it up, I love it!

[@kevincadman9407]

Looking forward to this one

[@dethaddr]

This was really cool. Thank you so much for enlightening me to the full story (I had heard about this before, but never the details). This story was every bit of fun as the Trials of Heracles. I wonder what Penelope thought about her husband sharing a bed with Circe and Calypso?

[@tiffanyvalenzuela5359]

So awesome

Hello Frenchwhisperer, is that I voice I hear in the “calm” advertisements? It sounds just like you, just wondering? Much love to you 🥰

This man could talk about the history of the Power Rangers as a joke and I'd still tune in just to listen like I'm at a college course.

[@Catachrest]

Not only that, if he wanted to he could find a way to make the history of the power rangers actually thoughtful and interesting.

[@tjc89]

Ahhhh it's that Silky, Raspy, Deep, Gravelly voice talking about History again. Tine to slip into a trance.

[@Jeff-lo4ud]

I feel like “silky raspy and gravelly” is kind of an oxymoron

I love this story, all week I've been trying to finnish this video, starting where I last remembered the night before, but still only half way through.....then I woke up this morning and realized its Saturday.... Just got my coffee (double shot of espresso) and I'm about to watch the rest ...😀 wish me luck

Pretty crazy, Im on a mission to learn the truths of the world because I feel our lack of knowledge and disconnect from the past is why we are in the situations we face today. Thank you for sharing.

You are the most amazing asmr artist I have ever come across. You're a great storyteller, have a great voice, you're intelligent and so calm. You have no idea how much you have helped me. Forget about Leonardo Di Caprio and Brad Pitt. It would be much cooler to meet you and get your autograph.

[@TheFrenchWhispererASMR]

Thanks! Of all the feeback I get for these videos, knowing that they improve some people's quality of life is the most gratifying.

[@the1inAmillionSPERM]

@@TheFrenchWhispererASMR btw, I would love to hear you speak about the Persian empire. Maybe it can be added to your already long list of videos to do 😂

I love Greek mythology so much, I want to listen to more stories, specifically about each god and goddess of Olympus🙂

[@warriorsheart9102]

Until then I can tell you what each God and Goddess is and how the human beings are connected to them

[@curiositydrawsme9180]

I’ve got to get into the habit of hitting “like” at the beginning of your videos - I’m usually asleep long before the end. I like that they give my busy mind something interesting to focus on, and then gently slow it down and calm it enough that sleep comes to me, very reliably. Thank you.

[@lam0125]

I feel so lucky for hitting two birds with one stone- Learning and relaxing at the same time! Thank you 💖

Great narration and art 😍 The earliest version of the Odyssey have Hermes directly involved with helping Odysseus as he gives him MOLLY to nulify any potion he drank. Athena was more involved towards Penelope and Telemachus in the present storyline. Comparisons have been drawn between Hermes and Odysseus... I mean, besides the god is his great grandfather 😊
