  • The Dirty Truth About Medieval Toilets: Where Did People Poop? (Boring History for Bedtime)
    Jul 12 2025

    Tonight on Boring History for Sleep—the bedtime history podcast made for insomniacs and curious night-owls—we explore the pungent side of 13th-century medieval life. Slip under the covers as our calming narration guides you through castle garderobes dangling over moats, peasants squatting behind hedges, and the gritty logistics of the night-soil trade. Each detail is delivered in slow, ASMR-style tones designed to turn long-form history into the perfect sleep podcast soundtrack.

    Expect whispered tales of chamber pots, royal bathroom rituals, and enough gross reality to make you thankful your toilet actually flushes. Whether you need insomnia relief, a new relaxing history podcast, or just a reminder that plumbing has come a long way, this episode will help you drift off smarter and odor-free.

    Settle in. Unclench. Let soothing storytelling carry you to dreamland—no hype, no drama, just real events served boring on purpose.
