The ENTIRE Story of Greek Mythology | From Chaos to Troy | History For Sleep | No Adverts

First there was Chaos. Not disorder - a gap, with nothing on either side of it. Tonight we go from that gap all the way to the last ship leaving Troy. Every god, every monster, every hero, in the order the Greeks said it happened. Nothing here will startle you, and it ends somewhere gentle. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ TIMESTAMPS AND TOPICS 0:00 Cold Open — Before Anything 2:25 Phase 2 — The Sky and the Earth 16:25 Phase 3 — The Golden Age, and the Stone 28:53 Phase 4 — The War in Heaven 42:30 Phase 5 — The Dividing of the World 55:08 Phase 6 — Prometheus, Fire, and the First Woman 1:09:14 Phase 7 — The Flood and the Ages of Man 1:22:53 Phase 8 — The Twelve 1:36:48 Phase 9 — The Underworld 1:49:49 Phase 10 — The Age of Heroes Begins 2:03:07 Phase 11 — Heracles 2:18:23 Phase 12 — Theseus, the Minotaur, and the Voyage of the Argo 2:33:31 Phase 13 — Troy 2:46:24 Phase 14 — The End of the Age, and the Sleep Ending ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ A long, calm history documentary made for sleep.

We research each story carefully, then shape it into something calm enough to fall asleep to. The narration and artwork are all our work, and even a single episode takes hours to put together.
