Hi Sam. :) I've listened to you for a while now (On my Nintendo switch cause- well it's hard to explain) But it used to take me an hour to fall asleep, and then I started listening to you and I fall asleep in about 10-15 minutes. I love Scottish accents (My two celebrity crushes are Richard Madden and Neil Ellice 😭) Anyways thank you so much
I had a flip phone for like a year (Smartphone distracted me from school) and the only thing I had to do was play on my Switch 😭. Was watching UA-cam and I was so tired but I felt really sad so I searched up boyfriend ASMR with an accent (DONT JUDGE ME I WAS SO LONELY) then I found this Scottish one but it was too short. Then your video popped up, I clicked it and I only listened to like 2 seconds and went "This man ain't scottish' (IM SO DUMB HELLO?) Then after endless searching I went back and I listened and went "oh he is Scottish. The first couple nights I couldn't stop giggling but now I sleep good
@@lorifromtemeculaca426 It was the "3 HOUR romantic sleep story" I remember being sad cause I couldn't fall asleep during the story time and only during the ambience and now I can barely get past the beginning of the stories (It's totally not 1 am when I replied to this when I should be sleeping shhh-)
❤🏴👏🇺🇲😴 Absolutely perfect 🤩, thanks again Sam. Had me spot of Scottish whiskey and now off to my great Scottish castle 🏰 thanks to Sam. Bravo 👏 & thanks for making my evening a restful time.
Ok sam... don't know WHAT to say, aside from these 2 NEW stories, bakery & castle, have knocked a few other stories OUT of my top ten! How in holy heck have you manifested this magnificence?
Haha that's saying something, Lori! By now I wouldn't be surprised if you had some form of top 40 or thereabouts. :D I'm so glad you enjoyed this one so much. I love it, too. I didn't even plan for it to end up like it was, but I'm glad it has. S x
Love this channel, especially the Sleepy Cat series. Would love to hear more of Morag! Even my bf who thinks asmr is weird will overhear the sleepy cat stories and likes them too.
Can I just say, we MUST take a moment to appreciate the sound effect of coming in from the storm... sam, how do you do that? Muffle the wind & waves... wow! ;-) 19:50 ish
Wow I can imagen then its feel very cosy and very cwayet inside the casle and the older mr feels so nice man to if I sepose . But thay athder room wi not have was inside feels also currasety ofcurse 😊❤
Breautiful! I love the intro and your pace is perfection. It's storming here so no sleep, but I've listened twice. It's very relaxing and comforting. Thanks, Sam!
Thank you, Tess. :) I will do my best to make some longer compilations soon. I'd love to make EVERY story long - but even one of these shorter ones takes a good week to put together. Don't want to know how long it would take to write a massive story haha S x
@@SnoozewithSamSam's Neverending tale 😆. I'm curious what format and story type/topics do best for you? Long va short, sound effects vs none, music after, the pace you read etc.
@@introvertedfox6826 Great question, and one I'm still trying to figure out! haha It more has to do with visuals and topic, I think. I've done all combinations of what you mention and there's no real pattern there. It's the visual appeal and keywords that do the brunt of the work in 'getting it seen' by the world. S x
Could the same story repeat itself for the duration of video length? (instead of creating longer stories?) Bless you heapies, Sam. My brain has trouble turning off at night so your videos, and listening to non-exciting audio books, help me go to sleep. Thank you 😊
Oh, I'm quite looking forward to this one. Will listen at bedtime but play through now as I know it helps with stats. Miss the chat this afternoon but hope you're doing well and have a lovely day. Thank you for this
Thank you, Fox - much apprecaite that. Figures have been a little low of late! My fault, of course! All well here, thank you. No premiere for this one, don't worry - wasn't able to join this week, unfortunately. Hope you've had a lovely weekend, and that you enjoy this one. S x
@@SnoozewithSam what are you thinking is the reason for the lower numbers? My weekend was alright, spent the morning working outside moving river rock from one part of the garden to another
@@SnoozewithSam From what I can remember I completely adored it and will be listening to it again and again… You actually have a castle 🏰 on your street! That’s WOW! As a high school student I lived near a castle and had a friend who worked overnight security and at 10:00 PM on Friday nights my friends and I would drive up the hill and run around the abandoned castle with flashlights 🔦. I grew up on Long Island, NY and was so lucky to have such an experience, running around Otto Herman Kahn’s American estate in 1982… It has now been refurbished into an amazing wedding venue. One of our friends actually had her second wedding there two years ago. ❤️ Thank You for sharing your amazing sleep stories. I really appreciate you!!! ❤️🏰😴
In the silence of the night, may you find serenity and comfort, wrapping yourself in the blanket of peaceful slumber. Goodnight, dear friends, and may the dawn bring you renewed vigor and enthusiasm. ❤💛💙
Thank you so much for your stories. I love the Scottish accent. It is said my dad's mother's people were once Scottish nobility living in a castle by the surnames of Strickland. I need to investigate this rumor. It would be awesome if it's true.
I love the ASMR but I wake up after the story, too. I look for long stories so I can get back to sleep. Can you loop your stories so they are 7-8 hrs or do more “best of” combined stories?
Yes, I was thinking maybe instead of longer stories if it would be easier to just let the rain sounds play longer so between the story and additional sounds it would be 8 hours combined 🤔. I don't wake up when he stops taking but when all goes silent, I do.
Hi Melissa :) Storys need to run longer now as yes, UA-cam will run ads at the end of a story. So that they don't wake you up in the middle of the night, I must make the run time longer. Shorter versions can be found on my Patreon. :) S x
@@SnoozewithSam I see. So, when a 4-hour story shows that it stopped at 2 hours when I wake up, that’s where it was supposed to end? Nice hack! I’m working on being able to do a paid Patreon sponsorship. Health (thanks, long COVID) limits the budget for now. I’m thankful for the stories you provide at no cost. MJ x
@melissakelley-rf8le hmm.. I understand what you're saying now. I'm not sure why a story would actually stop early for you. Maybe a software issue? A story should still run from start to finish. Sorry about that! Sending wishes 😊 S x

Hahaha no please DO explain! We play our switch sometimes - never thought someone would use one for me!

My nightly routine is find a video, turn up the volume, lower the brightness, take off the controllers and sleep
@@cloudyamethystok now, inquiring minds need to know... WHICH video of Sam's was your very first?

Haha awww, Lori... thank you. I'm really glad you like that element. I want you to FEEL like it's really happening. :) S x

I love this one.. Kept me going straight back to sleep all night ☺️
That's what I LOVE to hear - thank you! :) S x
Very nice! At least for the few minutes I managed to hear before 😴. Another wonderfully successful story. Thank you Sam.
Thanks, Obi! Hehe I have to say, this one was SO sleepy I think I'll struggle to recreate something that feels like this. I shall do my best! S x
Its beautiful. But I have to say I always wake up when the story is over. Could you maybe make another longer one somewhen? 🙏
Thank you, Tess. :) I will do my best to make some longer compilations soon. I'd love to make EVERY story long - but even one of these shorter ones takes a good week to put together. Don't want to know how long it would take to write a massive story haha S x

Glad you enjoyed it, Heather! 😊 thank you! S x

I truly enjoy your stories ...my favorites are your stories on Scottish history.keep the pen flowing and your page's full..
Thank you! Will do, Christina! :D S x

That's a crackin wee rumour, there - definitely worth investigating! S X
I have to agree, would love to have several in a row!
Can’t WAIT to listen to this one!!!!!!!!!!

I like when sam repeats the story at a lower volume... maybe he could do that 3-4 times... with ambiance inbetween... ;-)
Yes please
now my new favourite word 42:07 ish... right up there with petrichor sam!
Hehe I did have to go looking for that one, I admit! S x
Reading a book about a fox just now, as I'm listening...
Sounds blissful :D S x
Whats it called?
@introvertedfox6826 it was soooo good... "FOX & I... an uncommon frienship" by Catherine Raven... do check it out my dear! ;-)
@@lorifromtemeculaca426 thanks, I will
Hi, Sam. It seems like the longer stories tend to stop early. Is UA-cam trying to run ads in the middle?
