Boring History for Sleep, Sleepless Historian, Boring History

If you enjoy sleep story, relaxing narration, deep sleep, bedtime stories, insomnia relief, and calm history, this episode is for you.

You begin as a quiet boy in London. Dust on your shoes, Latin in your mouth. You climb with charm, climb higher with velvet, and land beside a king who thinks you’re loyal.

But loyalty doesn’t last forever.

This is the story of Thomas Becket — the soft-spoken clerk who traded flattery for fury, and silk for sackcloth. Tonight, you rise beside him. You walk the royal halls. You watch the torchlight glint on gold, then flicker out in silence.

Becket’s path to power is slow and quiet — until it isn’t.

One moment, he’s riding with kings. The next, he’s excommunicating them. You’ll hear the candles whisper, the court grumble, the robes rustle as friends become enemies in the hush before midnight.
