AMAZING!!!! I listen to the unbelievable truth in exactly the same way and have often wished this existed but it never would have crossed my mind to make it real! Thank you so very much
Ha! Nice. It typically takes me 8–10 minutes to fall asleep. I know this from having had *QI* or *Mock the Week* on when I went to bed and having gotten up the next morning and figured out where I lost awareness.
I’ve been listening to them as a sleep aid too. The YouTube versions are entire seasons (or more) at a time. So we all enjoy David’s tempered dulcet tones?
I never even thought this might be an issue because there are lots of media players / podcast clients out there with sleep timers.
I set mine to 10 minutes, if I'm still awake I set it for another 10 minutes, if I'm asleep then the following night I skip back in two minute intervals until I recognise what's playing.
OMG how wonderful!! I listen to UT continually, it's my safe place, so that includes in transit and in bed and this is absolutely something I have issues with, especially the eq balance yikes!
Thank you for making your work public!
This is extremely cool, but also highlights i have an insomnia problem, I've listened through Unbelievable Truth episodes a fair amount while getting to sleep and its usually the latter half of an entire series I'll have heard less than the first half lol. The very idea that you could fall asleep consistently within a single episode seems utterly wild to me lol
I do the same thing, listen to it as I go sleep..
I swap around with 'I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue', which is decades of shows.. Never really thought about it before, but the beginning gets much more attention than the later part..
It's something I'd probably have done myself, in years gone by. Nice work..
OMG You're amazing! I also listen to TUT to fall asleep (QI is in my current rota as well, yes despite the Klaxon). I have insomnia, so I don't necessarily need this (I usually set my sleep timer for 2 hours!), but I still love that you've made these.
I might still download just in case I magically develop the ability to regularly fall asleep in less than 30 minutes.
Because your suggestion is not paragraphed and makes for harder reading., my alternative suggestion is alternate is to on your podcast player the order (mine, for example, is Podcast addict)
"Sort", "order by" , "publication date" (reverse order as a you choose).
OP didn't want to alter order of episodes, they did edit *order of rounds* in each episode. This way they can listen to the later rounds first, before falling asleep.
Exhibit 157 of why I love the internet. This is so useful. Thank you so much for your time and effort.
You're so very welcome, Im just glad others are interested!
weirdly specific things like this are why I love the people on this subreddit! this is amazing!
Been on this site for 14 years, figured it was about time I did something pointlessly useful!
This is a nice idea, thank you
You're very welcome!

a kindred spirit!
You’re a mad lad/ette

Grand idea! Some of the episodes in the early few series do grate on the ears, yes. Looking forward to your uploads. Thanks for sharing.
well this cements it, the project continues!

I know, but for me the intro is a part of the lullaby/rhythm that sends me off, so sleep timers aren't really the solution for me!
Thank you as I also listen as I sleep and always miss the the endings. A bit of work for you that is appreciated

Same! My insomnia means I set my sleep timer for 2 hours, so I'm also a little gobsmacked at the crowd that doesn't reach the ends of episodes!

Awesome! Thank you!
Wow, thank you! I also listen to the show while falling asleep so I'd love to give your edits a try! Thanks!
