another is "Sleep With Me" by Dearest Scooter which are nonsensical steam of consciousness monologues.

#12fastsleep.app does kinda similar thing...
but instead of long podcasts, you are given something to imagine at a time interval.
Like if you hear "calm river", imagine that. If you hear "heavy rain over a tree", imagine that.
In short → Close your eyes, listen & imagine.

#14i want a sleep app that reads me things that will put me to sleep, but i need it to track when i may have gone to sleep, or more importantly when I have not, so i can restart the next night past the point i've listened to. but it needs to be some crazy simple UI, i don't want the light on my phone to turn on, i don't want to fiddle, just skip forward, skip back, that's about it
there's all sorts of stuff that is dry but interesting that I'd like to plow through over time, a few paragraphs a day would suit me fine

I think it'd be an outstanding feature on the iPhone to turn off audiobooks/podcasts at ~5 min into sleep or whatever. Seems like they already have the data via the Watch...

#17One of my greatest memories is performing at the Chinati Foundation. Marfa is such a gem with tons of cool people just being creative out in the desert.
agreed, it's a gem. wasn't familiar with Chianti, though!
Re: Marfa Public Radio Puts You to Sleep
#18Am I the only one that can't fall asleep to music? I need human voice rhythms, so podcasts, or whatever. The downside is not learning anything from the podcast because I'm asleep and it works its way into dreams sporadically
I can't fall asleep to either. I can tolerate noise, like a thunderstorm, but even construction sounds are interesting enough to keep me up with questions like: "I wonder what tool makes that sound."
The sound of a fan does it for me. Not the motor sound perse, but the blades of a powerful big fan cutting the wind. I’m addicted to it.

I wasn't able to find this, is it iPhone only?

If you have AirPods there’s a “Pause media when falling asleep” switch.
