Two of my favorite things together: history and ASMR 😊 Thank you for doing what you do

[@DMGamersz]

My favorite Egyptian god by far is Obelisk the Tormentor

[@zachwhite9970]

DMGamersz i appreciate that somebody with culture made this joke

[@boxboi7492]

You actually made me Google that... I haven't played in years.

[@tonydagod1647]

😂

[@Blessedup69]

EXODIA

[@ILLAILLS]

🤣

[@th3sil3nton34]

The music in the background adds so much to your video's

[@nanarts]

Sure thing

[@yoooRenegade]

Historical and informative asmr is my favorite I have probabaly listened to The French Whisperers videos at least 3x each... this channel is the only other one I have found that uploads quality videos like this so please dont stop as its very hard to find on youtube. Your content is fantastic, keep it up!!

[@Debbie338]

Same here. I finally found a reason to stop relistening to FW!

[@hal013]

NGL the 'Thot- Goddess of Instagram" joke had me dying laughing when I was meant to be sleeping.. 1000/10 joke

[@LetsFindOut1]

Lolol

[@justadjustor8993]

28:55 is for me to come back to 😄

[@helk1799]

This channel is going to blow up with popularity. These feel like asmr podcasts made for real productivity and relaxation and I've been looking for something like that for a long time.

[@rrjr_]

I love your videos because not only are they extremely calming and help me relax but I also learn so many new things from them. #TinglyTrivia

[@thesavannalady]

I can only get tingles if i learn something.... I am limited to very few ASMR channels but this one is one the best.

[@rrjr_]

thesavannalady I 100% agree. :)

[@lancenelson18]

Another masterpiece. Dude, you are hands down the best ASMR channel I follow. Everything you post is so interesting, and relaxing. You ever think of doing a video on lucid dreaming and the possibilities of the subconscious mind?

[@prp134]

Two of my favorites, Ancient Egypt and ASMR, much appreciated

[@oddlittleangel2383]

I absolutely love your work! You’re one of the few educational ASMR channels, and it’s so heartwarming to see that you’re genuinely interested in what you talk about. Much love!

[@jordanq9257]

THIS NEEDS MORE VIEEEEEEWWWWSSSS

[@goodDrummerman]

Dude, I love these videos so much. I learn so much info, and they are so relaxing! Feels like I’m chilling out in a cool room/study next to a fire learning from a friend.

[@YeahhDan]

i found this channel very recently and i already feel like it should be up there in the highest echelon of asmr channels

[@shenanigans3710]

Another brilliant video. I find it fascinating to try and imagine what they really believed, how ordinary people really felt. Undoubtedly their world view was very different to our own, but I also think it's important not to exoticise ancient people or to make assumptions about them. It's easy for us to make leap to incorrect conclusions based on the available evidence (I always wonder if future archaeologists will think we worshipped our pets as gods). For instance, were they as cynical about the gods as we are now? I'm sure they were - the tombs of most pharoahs were robbed almost immediately, so obviously at least some people didn't put too much store in the curses of the afterlife. I find that kind of exercise in empathy fascinating - like going through the door into someone's mind in Being John Malkovich. I like to think of the study of history as a telephone call to the past with very bad reception - which is why I love art (and philosophy). It allows me to have a direct conversation with people who came before me and treat them as peers, even if they were obviously far more brilliant than I'll ever be. Yet, ironically, getting into the heads of ordinary people in the past is much more difficult than trying to understand great figures of art or philosophy.

[@shenanigans3710]

Well I don't really find "exceptional" people to be necessarily more interesting than "ordinary" people. For starters, I've met a lot of so-called exceptional people in my capacity as a journalist and they were boring as hell. Plus, I don't view life or "progress" as necessarily quantifiable or teleological - ie. I don't think moral actions are quantifiable and that we're headed for some kind of Star Trek future and the only people we'll care about in 1000 years will be the Elon Musks of the world. I guess my worldview is a little more Kantian or deontological - essentially, I think every human action is ultimately relative, which is why I tend to have a more spiritual outlook and believe, ultimately, in some kind of higher power, albeit of a kind that we cannot possibly comprehend. (Sorry, I'm off on a tangent! But I like these exercises, they help me clarify my thoughts) So what AM I saying...? Essentially: that the schools of post modernism (despised by the likes of Peterson), despite their flaws and their misapplications, have given us some very powerful and ultimately valuable insights. One of those is that viewing history as merely a timeline of "great" events and "great" people not only offers us a less rich view of history but a less accurate one too. The perspectives of ordinary people in Ancient Egypt (for example) are not intrinsically more important than those of a Pharaoh but they're equally as interesting and, importantly for the historian, give us a much richer picture of what life was like and what people's worldview was.

Omg this comment

[@nanarts]

Great comment

[@hamandcheesedandwich]

I love what you wrote

[@yoyleb1711]

really well said!

[@dregzz7678]

Hey man 10k subs, keep up the great work! Nothing better than learning while you relax

[@Alexandriandria]

Congrats on 10k! Your videos are the best, thank you so much

[@Duxies]

10k subs! Congratulations, you deserve it. Your channel is going places, of this I'm sure 😊👌

[@timgressler771]

Hey it’s been a while since I watch one of your videos because I have been busy lately, but I just want to say congrats on the success of this channel. I remember watching your ww2 videos back when u had around 100 some subscribers and it’s just been amazing watching your channel grow and succeed. Keep it up

[@fm20002]

Love your videos, always relax me and give me tingles. Keep up the great work.

[@havinghehs]

Been waiting for a channel like this! ❤️❤️❤️

[@timc.5500]

Continuing on one of my favorite topics! Excellent video and whisper. Perfect asmr video! Thank you Rich! 👍👍

[@micam9915]

Wow what a great video! Your whisper is very relaxing! I got to relax and learn something. So glad I stumbled onto your channel.

[@andersgeye4375]

The funny thing about cleopatra and many other pharaohs is that their wasn’t just one. I believe in the history of the Egyptian empire 7 cleopatras were married into/held the throne. Same with Ptolemy, most people believe Ptolemy was one man but in reality the name Ptolemy is the last name of the entire Ptolemaic bloodline

[@Steve0707]

Love the subject, Love the whisper! Thank you! 👍🏻👍🏻

[@samromero4585]

Wow perfect timing I was looking for something to sleep to lol I love ur videos 👍❤️

[@catsforhire9116]

[@frizzyhizzy]

Wow... very interesting since I love to learn about things and oh so unexpectedly relaxing, which is the best type of ASMR 👏👏👏👏

[@jonnytorres2473]

My man back at it. Absolute legend

[@Tritondeep]

Can't believe the perfect channel exists for my inquiring, restless mind. I love your content. Especially astronomy related ones. Thank you!!!! You will blow up soon. Keep at it please.

[@ox1344]

Your videos have become a ritual for sleep now

[@banrions]

I like all your videos, but especially the full whisper ones:)

[@HN-kr1nf]

i woke up in the morning to find that i'd fallen asleep to one of your other videos and autoplay brought me here 😂 what a lovely channel

[@chrisstahl331]

The best way how to learn about history..thanks.. 😊

[@gesik3898]

Informative and relaxing, i will listen to all your videos.

[@mblehar]

Another homerun! I love this channel so much

[@divinity4infinity266]

I really appreciate your channel. It’s like ASMR for intellectuals! Absolutely top notch material.

[@LetsFindOut1]

[@jc8258]

If I may say. You're voice is so comforting.

[@xicecoldzzx5413]

[@MrsWeierdo]

I just found your channel. I am so excited!

[@loafheader]

Very good videos I'm already starting to fall asleep

[@DjBolt11]

[@CyrusSC2]

Why have you got 10k subs? Visitors - you need to subscribe to this guy, he's the real deal!

[@nanarts]

First time I was sad I fell asleep to an ASMR

[@kl5453]

I love your videos! I would love a literary history or biographies.

[@ferivauer6732]

Your voice is the ASMR dream

[@ASMRWhisperingSpirit]

[@ponymachine4204]

[@jazzx338]

[@mariemaidyn3698]

Hello; new sub. Thank you for the recommendations. Who knew intelligent ASMR existed!

[@Jlo2411]

A full whisper video. I’m going to just lay here and pretend this video was made just for me 💁🏽. I want to watch the whole video but I’m finding it hard to keep my eyes open 😴

[@lelagoad944]

Where can I get this book??? Great video!!

[@douglasgaunt537]

hey what song did you use in this one also? also your voice is louder in this one, nice. relaxing and interesting, love these

[@douglasgaunt537]

nice. could i pls download it lol? how did u make it?

[@thomaskayfabian]

what is the name of the book u are using? the pictures are fantastic!

[@buderfryyy]

Hahahha the prospect of an ancient civilization that has been forgotten about excites me too 😳

[@zzkzz7727]

Very nice video again; although one request if I may. Could you do an asmr video on scientific theories? For example: the story about relativity and Einstein’s train and lightning thought experiment. I can picture you saying “as the lightning strikes, for the person on the train shock B would appear to be faster..” would be eerie finding theories relaxing. Thanks for the video.

[@TwennyTheOne]

Oh hell yeah

[@AllunaWhispers]

Hey! Great video! What book is this?

[@oxymoron02]

12:20 Holy shit that went from ASMR to CREEPR in 0 seconds flat.

[@jc8258]

My apologies. I lost connection with "Andromeda. " Video. Did I spell that right? I don't know. Anyway, I want to watch this video now.

[@jackjacoby8470]

28:53 top notch, mate

[@DasFlippers]

Please do another r/til video they're my fav

[@kingoctopus1035]

[@jc8258]

In addition, I got myself a "Cosmic brownie 😋 ".

[@elijahtxt2334]

Wow

[@TRUEMaGGoT]

[@jc8258]

Did you just say, "Goddess of Instagram?" 🤣

[@mizzishtar456]

Childhood me is screaming right now lol

[@CamdenMcInnis]

Crazy, just proves that humans have been around much much longer than we believe

[@ashleyoasis7948]

Why have you stopped making videos

[@teresacardoza7633]

Please try and do greek myth!

[@jc8258]

I have to pause ⏸. BRB

[@valstrom7672]

Thoth the goddess of Instagram 😂😂😂

[@LetsFindOut1]

lol :)

[@codystjohn9992]

The winged dragon of ra

[@Nordic-Caveman]

I’ve listened to you for a while, its very relaxing. But i know, that you know, that the egyptians of that era never built the pyramids. The pyramids are far older, and far to complex for it to have been constructed by the bronze tools from this era. The egyptians might be descendents from the original builders, but thats just speculation at this point. Its even been proved that the sphinx and the pyramids in the area around used to be below water to a certain extent. The mighty egyptians really were awesome and interesting, but there’s gotta be drawn a line somewhere.

[@LetsFindOut1]

id like to do a little research about graham hancock, bauval, west, schoch, mckenna and carlson's work and make a video about the upper dryas period

[@Nordic-Caveman]

@@LetsFindOut1 Thats awesome, glad to hear that. Its a truly fascinating era of our history we know little to nothing about, sadly. Anyways keep up the great work, much appreciated.

[@LetsFindOut1]

Thanks heien

[@Daylight7vs6]

Thou shalt not worship any other gods before me ?

[@blakewright575]

I love this and all your vids I’ve seen, but the crackling (fire sounds) in the background are too loud in this one...

[@LetsFindOut1]

i appreciate the feedback blake
