@@yawnyjawny it is under 3 stories: Heracles, Trojan War, and Odyssey (which will be released in a couple of weeks, I am still catching up with my YT library). Also the prologue is not on Spotify neither, I will probably release it as an EP.
@@TheFrenchWhispererASMR would you consider "a history of currency" or something similar, i think it would be super intresting to learn how we went from bartering to formal currency and how that's shaped history
I love how Chronus didn’t want his kids to turn on him didn’t even stop to think about being a loving father. It’s just “well I guess I have to eat my kids”
@@fotischaronis4597 chronos and kronos/chronus are two different beings. Kronos is the titan, father of Zeus Poseidon and Hades. Chronos isn't actually a god but instead the personification of time. Very different, titan chronus has nothing to do with time
ACCURATE! That's because his voice has that same "purring" quality like Antonio Banderas in Interview With The Vampire. Because I was thinking the same thing lol
@@Watchmewatch5752 oh I do and have done for a few years now. I listen to his videos pretty much every night so it's only fair to give back. But thanks for assuming I'm just leeching ;)
well,i use adblock so every video has no ads for me lol and before a google simp comes at me: youtuber get a ridiculously small % of ad revenue, so. Most earn their income from outside of youtube.
I keep trying to listen to this when I lay in bed but I fall asleep so fast and have to rewatch it the next night AND I FALL ASLEEP AGAIN BEFORE I FINSIH. This is a compliment 😂❤️ great video!
I came here with, literally, the exact same intention ; to learn . . .. but, I also came with the exact same worry ; that I was gonna fall asleep before I learned anything either. Jeez, I wonder which will be the victor.. every freakin time 😆😆
I'd tried asmr, soft singing, classical music, lo-fi beats, having a random TV show playing, doing yoga and drinking warm malt, but at 4:30 am just when I thought I was gonna have to pull an all nighter, (to reset my sleep clock 🤣) I fell asleep within the first 12 minutes of this video. It was so interesting and calming! Thank you so much!!♥️♥️♥️
I dont know who you are. i have never come across your channel before. but when i saw greek mythology reading to fall asleep too AND heard your soothing voice i almost cried. Thank you! Whoever you are. You have finally put an end to a 4 day insomnia disaster and earned a new subscriber 🖤
Agreed! And it's funny how much you learn from all these different kinds of asmr videos. I've somehow mastered at least half a dozen make up routines lol
You’re one of 4 creators (of anything, anywhere) that comes across as genuine enough that I feel totally safe and calm when relaxing to your content. It’s helped with my anxiety so much over what’s been a difficult 12 months for me. Thank you.
I was specifically looking for ASMR to help with insomnia and found you last night. Now because of a love and fascination with All things ancient and Mythology; I was literally falling asleep but TRYING to stay awake for the stories lol. So entertaining AND educational as well as super relaxing. It is difficult to not pass out but I so want to hear the stories so I have literally played this 4 times since last night. You are saving my life. I have had insomnia, constant migraines, and sleep apnea since a car accident in 2006. I can easily fall asleep listening to your bedtime stories. You are a gift. Thank you so much. Have you thought of reading audio books they pay well I hear. You have the perfect voice for it. Again a million thanks from me and my over worked brain.
@@maramarxx2431 No problem. Just know that there is no external source for happiness. You know you are a gift, you just get told and shown often enough that you aren't and eventually begin to believe that yourself. That's one way to beat someone down, in a long grind towards hopelessness. Positive and negative evalutions and validations are but smelly clouds people spread around, it is you alone who can define yourself.
I'm amazed at how soothing and educational this video is. Listening to the myths of Creation, Heracles, the Trojan War, and the Odyssey in such a calming voice is a unique experience. Perfect for relaxation and learning.
I'm very sick in the hospital and it causes me much anxiety to be here. Listening to this was so amazing and helpful. Thank you from the bottom of my heart 💜
I was just about to comment the same!! It's always a great day when a historian freely acknowledges that Achilles/Patroclus were lovers (I'M LOOKING AT YOU, 'TROY' THE BRAD PITT MOVIE 😜😜😜)
i find it interesting that as far as i can tell, greeks seemed totally fine with guys liking guys and i think there was cross-dressing pretty often too? like as far as identity they seemd so chill lol. idk about girls liking girls though? i cant recall any stories like that.. take it with a grain of salt i dont know much, just basing this off of the stories ive heard
@@reydragonclaw1128 in most ancient civilisations being the “top” was seen as ok and not wrong, but being the “bottom” was “meant for women” so when men were the “bottom” they were looked down on. However they were seemingly less judgemental than people nowadays because they were openly allowed to be 2 male or 2 female lovers without (openly) being commented upon (though I’m sure it was spoken about behind their backs because everyone loves to gossip)
I’ve read Percy Jackson and Greek Mythology since I was very little and I just got back into it recently and I’m now re-reading The Heroes Of Olympus Series I’m on book one the Lost Hero so far so good
Saw this in my recommended and GASPED. Finally my niche interests (myths, asmr, voices, A ES T H E TICS) have aligned into a wonderful video. This was absolutely lovely!!! WAIT THERES MORE LIKE THIS? Immediate sub. Thank you for this I am genuinely excited to watch more!!
Saw somone else post this: but one day edgy teenagers will wish they were born in the 2020s beacuse they like the aesthetics of the pandemic and blm Cant wait to be old and grumpy at all the kids who wanna relive my childhood lol
I love you. Sounds strong, I know- but after the insomnia I’ve experienced, I think you would think the creator of this content is heaven sent too! 😇❤️ Keep up the great work. The topics, the research & the presentation are all so well done! Thank you a million thanks for all you do! 👑
As a child, my father read us to sleep from many genres of subjects. He was not French, but listening to these is like being read to sleep those decades ago. You learn as you are soothed to sleep. Thank you for your channel. I am happy subscribed. 😊
I’ve been rewatching your videos on the Trojan War and Heracles, they’ve got me so hooked on Greek mythology again! This video is a blessing thank you!!!
And just like that, a whole playlist with just your readings. You've granted me a bit of peace in all this upheaval with your wonderful voice. Thank you!
I'm loving the detail. I studied classics for years at university, and this is a relaxing refresher for the myths I know, and sheds light on alternative traditions I did not. Informative and beautiful to listen to 🙏
It's like saying, "come here, relax and let me lull you to sleep" ( no unnecessary filler or attachment; no guilt) what a pleasurable experience - Merci 💋💋
This reminds me of a friend of mine’s dad, whenever we’d go to visit where I used to live, we stayed at their house and he always told us Greek myths, so it’s taking me backs bit and it’s awesome
A big thank you for this educational and entertaining video. Your detailed exploration of Greek mythology is both informative and fascinating. It's a great resource for anyone interested in these timeless stories.
anton fredricson I am a Hellenistic witch (or rather I believe in the Greek deities) and I shit on Zeus all the time. He’s a bad “person”. He’s powerful and mighty, but what does that matter when his actions are sometimes so horrid and misguided.
Nearly 6 million viewers and no adverts 🤯 can we take a second to thanks this gentleman for not permitting ads on a 3.30 hrs video 🙏 so much appreciation and recognition for the respect you treat your followers, that’s why I keep coming back to your channel. Respect and gratitude 🙏 🤟cheers
Merci bien for your lovely stories. You are so soothing and the stories are so intelligently and wonderfully told. I am from Malta so of course I, like many others, am fascinated by your tales about ancient Rome, Egypt and the The Ottomans. Thank you.
3 and a half hours..you're the best! looking forward to watch it tonight. :) thank you so much for your work and the effort you put in it! have a nice evening!
WHY DID THIS ONLY COME IN MY RECOMEDATIONS NOW I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS TYPE OF THING! I will listen to sleep like every night (I know this was made not long ago but I’m very excited)
I am impressed by your writing of this! So well structured, interesting, accessible, and totally my jam! It's a masterpiece to me! Keep it up, French Whisperer.
I’m overcome with calm joy whenever you post a new video. Soothing, calming, mellifluously voiced, hypnotic hand movements, informative and fascinating content-the whole package. Thank you!
this on my recommended is TOO perfect because i have to summarize a myth and say what insights it fits under for mythology class in the morning but im also trying to sleep,,
I subscribed yesterday and spent most of the day asleep. ASMR usually doesn’t affect me but this is perfect. The low voice and my love for history combined. I see a lot if sleep in my future.
epic of Gilgamesh is essentially the 12 labors of Heracles the Sumerians were touching on subjects older then them selves they refer back to Atlantis an the cult of the stars in turkey
Greek God's and Greek mythology has always fascinated me. I was able to get into a Mythology class for my Senior year of High school, I've never actually been excited to go to school but I'm really excited for this class!
my brain is like split in half watching this cause one side is like "oooo greek mythology sounds interesting I want to learn about it" and the other side is like "pls go to sleep, you clicked on this to fall asleep pleas-"
I didn’t want to fall asleep because the storytelling was so interesting & commentary so insightful! I did drift off a few times due to the calming rhythm of his voice, tho. Bravo, found this to be on par with any course I took in college, & one of my favorite random RU-vid finds ever!
Sir, u r amazing. I found a new nighttime storyteller. No matter how badly I want to stay awake and hear the stories, I fall asleep within the first 10 minutes. Thank you so much for the time stamps. I sure use them. Many thanks for your intelligence and calming voice.
Your voice is beautiful but I what I love the most is your narration. The seamless sprinkling in of interesting facts between each chapter of the story and the thoughtful questions poised about the relevance of these tales to Ancient Greece culture and modern life make this so much more than just a history lesson. Thank you for this lovely video I can return to whenever I need to wind down.
A soothing voice and what's more, the art you chose to display in your video was chosen thoughtfully and tastefully. I love Greek mythology, so I love to turn this on before sleeping. Thank you. 🙏🏼
