About this podcast
Before the world was mapped, it was imagined.
We bring the world’s oldest stories to your bedside. Tales whispered through generations are retold in a calm, dreamlike voice to help you drift into restful sleep. Each episode explores a myth or legend, drawn from cultures across time: Greek heroes and Hindu deities, Norse giants, Egyptian underworlds, and the sacred stories of Indigenous lands. These aren’t just fables—they’re portals to wonder, carried on the soft rhythm of a storyteller’s voice. Whether you’re seeking escape, meaning, or peace at the end of the day, these myths offer a gentle path inward.
Let ancient worlds unfold as sleep takes hold. Subscribe for new episodes, or listen ad-free with Whisper Premium at www.whisper.fm.
