The media aren't promoting it much because it's not getting enough user ratings and reviews. If it doesn't get enough advertisement Joe might not be able to keep it going, and become a bricklayer again! Please upvote the comment to get the word out, thank you all.

With everything that's been going on lately, I've been looping faster and faster around an endless track of pessimism thinking about all of worlds and my own big problems. This and Joe Peras other videos have been an exit from that track. It's like he took my brain and said "hey buddy get out of that dark cloud, come down lower and try to remember when you were a kid. Try think like that and notice how wonderful these everyday things are. I'm going to feed apples to a happy horse and make you remember how you used to feel looking out a car window."

    I know this might've seemed like a very simple thing when you came up with it, but my 10 year old son has anxiety and struggles to settle on an evening, but he really loves setting the relaxing talks you to/back to sleep videos going. We have had many blissful and peaceful moments thanks to these videos. They are some how simultaneously profound and simplistic. As a child my youngest son's favourite place was a multi-level aquarium in Hull called the deep.
    Anyway, as he was falling asleep to this video tonight and I said "there is a video for tree tv, I haven't watched it yet though..." and in a sleepy voice he responded "does it include an NBA game?" That was very sweet because in the UK we really don't cover the NBA. But he does like shooting hoops.

    “...But now, more than ever, my routine is what stands between me and the abyss. I learned this lesson one evening when I decided to stay up all night to see what would happen. Instead of going to bed on time, I drank a coffee after dinner then watched four bill burr movies. It was great until saw the sun come up and I saw there’s nothing separating days but sleep. And though days have cycles, and seasons have cycles, time is not a cycle for us. Just a straight line, one that doesn’t continue forever, but that’s alright, because my routine helps me forget this. Anyhow, I’ve been thinking a lot of comfort lately and the second law of thermodynamics. Usually, I don’t, but right now, it’s nice to know that all natural processes are irreversible and things are always moving forward.”

    Listening to Joe Pera’s talks before sleep has become one of my new favorite things. It’s not because it’s boring so I fall asleep. There is something very calming and wholesome about his videos; I genuinely enjoy them. 😌

    "It's a little more casual than ususal but if just one nurse can come home and watch it to fall asleep it'll be worth it" I'm a nurse assistant not a nurse but I almost cried at this part because I'm actually watching this to help me sleep before my shift on a COVID unit, thank you Joe ;-;

      How are you doing these days? How's the sleep? Thank you for what you do. I've had a few hospital stays, and the NA's were like angels. Such hard work. They kept me together.

    I have been listening to this video to fall asleep every day for the past 6 months and I am barley coming to the comments, I love each and every one of you and I hope you (person reading this) are doing great in life. You are not alone, we all have problems and challenge of our own, wether it be with family, financial status, or with our loved ones, so don't feel left out when hard times come your way. If you are sad, just remember that whatever is happening will one day pass, I promise. Keep your head up, and be the best YOU you can be.

    It's strange because on one side I would like everybody to know this fantastic, precious and lovable human being that is Joe Pera in order to share some wholesomeness, on the other end though I want to keep as pristine as possible the niche that this character has created

      I don't get that, why would anything change when it is popular? I have heard the same in music. Joe Pera has been on popular talk shows and acts the same as here, so don't worry!
