Welcome to episode forty-six of The World's Most Boring Podcast - Bore Me to Sleep: A Definitive Ranking of All the Days of the Week. If you are looking for a sleep podcast, a bedtime podcast, a podcast to fall asleep to, or simply something so relentlessly calm and uneventful that your brain has no choice but to give up and drift off, you have found the right place. This episode takes on one of the great questions of our time - which day of the week is actually the best - and answers it in the most thorough, meandering, and deeply unimportant way possible. Expect a full ranking of all seven days, from Monday to Sunday, with extended detours into Norse mythology (Odin, Thor, Huginn and Muninn), the etymology of weekday names, the Babylonian origins of the seven-day week, Saturnalia, the Jewish Sabbath and Shabbat, working weeks in Muslim-majority countries and Israel, the cultural significance of Taco Tuesday, Rebecca Black's Friday, contract law, regional train journeys, kitchen drawers full of unidentified keys, and a brief but sincere meditation on the nature of time itself. The ranking is definitive. It is also completely unscientific. Tuesday comes last. Saturday wins. No further questions will be taken. This podcast is ideal for people who have difficulty falling asleep, people who find sleep meditation podcasts too intense, people who enjoy ASMR-adjacent content but prefer words to whispering, people who like monotone talking podcasts, people who want a sleep story for adults, and people who simply enjoy falling asleep to something calm, warm, and entirely safe to miss. If you doze off halfway through the ranking and wake up having no idea where Saturday ended up, that is not a problem. That is, in fact, the goal. The episode ends in a long, dreamlike conclusion where the days of the week slowly dissolve into something softer and stranger - the kind of thing that happens in the space between being awake and being asleep, which is exactly where we hope you are by the time you get there. New episodes of The World's Most Boring Podcast arrive regularly and cover topics so mundane, so gently explored, and so thoroughly unimportant that falling asleep to them feels like the most natural thing in the world. Subscribe wherever you listen to podcasts, and if you have a topic suggestion, a question, or simply something you'd like to share, send it to themostboringpod@gmail.com. We read everything. We respond slowly. Sleep well.
