      Just now found your podcast for the 1st time. I have also, recently found another very similar podcast called, "Get Sleepy".
      Questions suggestion for maybe your next Q&A rambling and a bit of advice, too: Rather than continuing to take a chance of getting a copyright strike for reading copyrighted material why don't you do something similar to "Get Sleepy's" channel and use material and read stories that are completely of your, own creation.
      That way you don't have to worry about your channel getting, 'dinged'.

      Separate question / suggestion for your next Q & A: Were you beginning to notice more people wanting this type of material during The Pandemic rather, than more of your gaming material, instead? In other words did you find that your audiences desire for gaming decreased doing The Pandemic or, did it increase? On the flip side did you notice that more people needed or wanted sleep inducement listening, material more during The Pandemic?

    It’s disheartening to learn that due to past, hurtful experiences which left you feeling abandoned and lost, you no longer allow yourself to fully embrace our acclamations these days. But I understand where you’re coming from, and I’m really glad you’ve found a way to ignore the negative while still catching the positive in this.
    Anyway, thank you for being so open with this Q&A, it has satiated my many curiosities. 😊

    I love your reading of The Velveteen Rabbit. Any nursery stories like that are my favorites. Im sure others like Twilight and other more "adult" themed stories, but I really prefer the kid stoires. As long as you keep doing some of each, im happy. 😊. I'm probably one of your older listeners, being in my 60s.

    I appreciate that you explained why there are only a few episodes of each book and that it's on purpose. I came from the gaming channel and love your voice, it's so soothing and calm, so I went to listen to The Secret Garden and was disappointed that it hadn't all been recorded. When I listen to an audiobook, it's not to fall asleep to but because I suffer from terrible chronic fatigue (probably long covid) and sometimes I am so ill I have to keep my eyes closed and the most I can do is listen to things until I eventually feel better. So in those cases I definitely want to listen to the whole book, not just a few chapters. But after you explained it, it made sense to me why it wouldn't matter to people whether the whole thing has been recorded, if they fall asleep halfway through anyway.
    My personal preference is to have less different books recorded, in favor of recording the entirety of them. But don't let that make you feel pressured or anything, it's your channel to do with what you prefer and it's evident that it's helpful for a ton of people!

My favorite moment in down to sleep is from the Sleepy Hallow episode when you say “his eye had the look of a genuine devil.”

    I listen to you every night either here or are on Patreon. Not exaggerating... every single night. I can't shut my brain down without your voice telling me a story. I've listened to Coraline enough that I can almost recite it with you ... when you say " they were both old. And round"... I typically exhale and know that I can relax. Thank you. For an anxious mind like mine it is truely a God send.
    So my question... When will you move New Moon over to youtube? I enjoy the longer versions and that's a bit difficult on Pateron.
    Bless you and thank you for what you are doing!

    My dad used to read to my siblings and I every night before bed- no one reads like he does and his is probably my favorite voice in the world. Living far away from my family now, your voice has been very comforting and helpful for me; you have a different tone and timbre but provide a similar level of familiarity. It’s funny having a parasocial relationship with just a voice- thank you for your lovely reading.

    Last year, I remember the first ever story that I listened from this channel was Caroline. I loved it so much and your voice has this impact on me of like a mother caressing her daughters hair while the little one tries to sleep. I myself have trouble trying to sleep since of daily stress and school stuff, so I listen to bedtime stories despite my age and stuff. I find it easy to relax while waiting to finally rest while listening to your smooth and calming voice. I figured that you sir, are such a sweet person as well as I listened to this. I smiled so many times while listening, and I love the fact that you have two cats.i have one too. I always found people who loves animals to be the nicest people that exist in this world. So I'm looking forward to get to know u better, and to keep listening to ur stories. Thank you so much for everything, God bless u for ur efforts. Hope u grow and prosper :). Wish u the best❤

    Not being able to relax enough to get to sleep was getting so bad for me until I found Twilight and your amazing voice.
    I did sleep to train sounds but awake with headache.
    I must admit I did sleep to The wizard of Oz but then awoke to words I didn’t recognise 🤭😳. So that was a stay awake book.
    I can’t thank you enough, I can sleep so easily and for many hours.
    I guessed 28 …
    I’m coming up to 60 in April. You’re an amazing young person 🤗.
    I am sorry I am going to sleep so I will re listen to this during the day.

Im from Ky and am so country and really am enjoying listening to your stories. I stared with Twilight. Love it. I am on patreon and want to hear the rest of The Haunting of Hill House. Keep doing what you do because one person can make a difference even if you dont think it does. For me you soothe my trauma and close the endless mind chatter. ❤

    I listen to your stories every night to help with insomnia and I find it very soothing, especially with the rain sounds. I just love when you say, "lets tuck you in" and get disappointed if it is not in your podcast story. Silly, I know. Your voice soothes me and while I am dealing with deep grief over the unexpected death of my adult son, you will never know how much this means to me.

    Hi, this ramble was lovely to listen to at 3 am last night when I couldn't sleep. I am so very blessed by your bed time story times. Such a help to me to be able to doze off through the pain caused by my disability. I sleep so much better having discovered your channel. I guessed you are about mid 30s, dark hair and a cat lover, by your caring sounding voice and knowing that you enjoy helping others with reading stories, just enforced that for me. Thank you so much for persevering. These You Tube story times are wonderful. 🤗🥱👍

      This past year my teen son struggled with a newly diagnosed mental illness. There were suicide attempts, month long hospitalizations, and some of the deepest lows of our lives. He’s doing much better now, thanks to some amazing mental health professionals and medications. But during that dark time, we discovered this channel. There were so many nights that my son and I just lay on his bed at the Ronald McDonald House, hours away from our home, holding hands in the dark and listening to “Wind in the Willows.” Clinging to that story and those characters and this voice as if our lives depended on it. The part where Mole says, “ Best go ahead and dance your jig around that…” was the first time I’d heard my son laugh in weeks. It was like the sun coming out. That story and this voice became our anchor during that time.

    I don’t know where we can request books, but I’d love to hear The Giver and my son loves The Peter Rabbit reading. He loves her Jeremy Fisher story so he would absolutely love a reading of Potter’s Jeremy Fisher story. He gets so excited when I turn on your Peter Rabbit reading.

I just have trouble in general sleeping, and many a nights I have had you read me to sleep and it works every time. Honestly, sometimes I try to fight the sleep because your voice is very soothing and lovely to listen to, but most nights I give in and just go to sleep. I'm so very glad people told you to read books, because I have heard others, but none of them compare to you. As far as I'm concerned you're the only one I want to listen to. This was a nice get to know you, glad you did it.

    Hey Morph! I just wanna say, discovering your channel is the best moment I've ever had.
    I always fell asleep when I listen to my family talking until midnight. But it was kinda hard for me to find the similar ambience on the internet since a lot of them are whispering (kinda triggers my misophonia).
    I did find a few but they don't make them anymore with the voice that I prefer. But after a bit of scrolling, there you wereee~ the savior of my restless night.
    I don't think I have to describe my admiration for your voice, because everybody here already did it perfectly.
    Also, the addition of the rain sound is such a chef's kiss. And they are hours and hours and hours long, so I don't have to worry about finishing the video before falling asleep.
    Thank you Morph for existing! Wishing you a brighter future and a greater career wherever it takes you 🫶🏼

    Beautiful, soothing chat, Morph. Thanks for sharing. Both my senior cat and my 8-month- old kitten came to lay on me and listen, too - until the kitten moved too close to the older cat and she hissed and ran off. Then the other kitty decided it's time to chomp on me (playfully), so we've paused the video. 😅 I enjoyed hearing about what interests you and makes you happy, and think it's awesome that you bought special food for the young swans. Also super cool that your first job had a fun, interpersonal vibe to it. Cheers.

    Unrelatedly, I can't imagine the kind of drive it takes to stick with uploading and streaming regularly for 7ish years until you take off and can make a regular living off of it, never even knowing whether it's going to happen. I don't understand how people can continue working this hard, uploading regularly, not get disheartened or depressed and stop. Really glad you stuck it out and it seems like you're doing ok. If you ever end up making a ton of money from it, you deserve every cent.

I didn’t want to bug you on Instagram or elsewhere… last I remembered we were concerned about the “copr” issue here on this channel. Wow I’m so happy for you ( we knew it would take off and Omgosh look at the 400k bears we also knew was gunna happen!!) Congrats on everything Morph, I’m sorry I thought you left us and that you feel the loss of us when we are lost. April / aka grapeape 🐻 ❤️

    If you like beautiful flowery books you WILL love Virginia Woolf! (From someone that's also read Wilde's books). She's a genius with the pen, and Orlando is my absolute favourite book. From how you seem to be as a person, I feel like you're the introverted, nostalgic kind like me, with lots of thinking and introspection. If this is accurate, you will absolutely love Orlando. I feel like no one captures the "introvert" vibe quite like them ❤ the backstory of the book is also beautiful

    Hey Morph! I am a little older than you and also following my heart and doing voice acting here on YT. Also big on cats, gaming and yoga, and a whole lot of the other things you mentioned. (Are you an INFJ too? Haha!) I really appreciate your channels, your voice is amazing and you have a wonderful personality.

    40:00 I was just thinking the other day, while re-watching you play and read Touchstarved, that I'd love to see (and hear) you work on something with Neil Newbon, the actor who performed Astarion in BG3. He's also a director, leads a consulting company, and his group offers acting workshops. You both have a generous spirit - and perhaps need external reminders to switch gears or rest. 🙂

    I can SO relate to your eclectic taste in music. I share that kind of mood connected listening which I, too, often find by way of soundtrack compositions. As such I have two words for you: Max Richter. Ok those are names buuut 😄 Seriously, his music will make you cry in the most perfectly profound ways.

    See in my head you are about 35 years old, very good looking, dark hair, blue eyes. You are a dog lover, probably a black labrador, there may be a cat lording it around the house. You have a partner, you are a kind caring chap, and you dress well. Am I anywhere close, or completely off the mark.?? Lol
