A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Amazing! I have insomnia issues. Put this on and I’m out in minutes. I don’t remember hearing any of the words or story in the morning even though I was sure I was listening for a little while. Some kind of magic!

As someone who suffers from insomnia, this subscriber version of Get Sleepy is a Godsend. I use it every night to fall asleep and to get back to sleep if I wake up. It helps calm my anxiety and racing intrusive thoughts that would have kept me awake. I highly recommend it!

JanellenV · Aug 2026

Thomas’s voice is the only way I can fall asleep. He speaks slowly, and has a very melodic voice. He’s on this podcast and you tube. Many thanks to Thomas for helping people around the globe fall asleep each night.

I love this show, hands down, and found amazingly that it even calms by elderly pup with dementia. Found this out one night when listening to a three hour episode about Auggie the Cat, read by Simon Mattacks (he is my favorite!). My dog calmed right down it was amazing. Thanks from us both!

I like the podcast, however the ads are so loud it’s startling. I like enjoy listening on my Alexa when trying to fall asleep and I’m awakened by the ads. One was just in another language and it almost sounded like yelling.

Ads are startling · Dec 2024

Used to be a great podcast and would listen to it every night. Now there are ads EVERY 5 MINUTES throughout the podcast. What kind of “sleep story” has ads throughout it that you keep getting woken up to?! Not for me anymore…
