Quietly ASMR

  This week's episode of the Bedtime Science Fiction Whisper Show features a 1952 work by the science fiction great Isaac Asimov, entitled "Youth".  The novella was originally published in the May 1952 issue of a short-lived but prolific magazine called Space Science Fiction.  It is one of the only stories Asimov ever published that included alien characters. The content on this channel is primarily intended for the purpose of relaxation and stress relief through stimulation of a phenomenon called autonomous sensory meridian response, or ASMR (hence all the whispering).  It is often described as a sense of well-being combined with a tingling sensation that occurs mostly in the head, neck, and shoulder area.  Certain sensory experiences, both visual, auditory and combined, can produce the effect in those who are ASMR sensitive.  It is best enjoyed in a quiet setting with the use of headphones. New episodes premiere each Monday at 7pm CST. If you like what you hear on this podca
