On Location in a Kayak | SWM+ Sneak Peek
STEREO EXPORTS
A real ride in a Kayak, it has been edited but it is a on location show so if you need it super even and sleepy, you might save this for the day time.
This episode was recorded on location and contains some ambient nature sounds. It’s an older bonus episode, so it’s a little looser. There’s some gentle singing and discussion of small insect friends. It might not be sleepy for all listeners.
Happy Subscriber Summer! All summer long, we’re giving you a sneak peek of bonus episodes exclusively available on Sleep With Me Plus. Learn more at sleepwithmepodcast.com/plus

STORY
I’m about to get into a kayak
We’ve got a lot of turquoise dragonfly action right now
Okay, we’re launched!
The water is almost mirrorlike
This could be the official dragonfly episode
Surrounded by big, broad lily pads
Was that my nose or a bird?
A lot of birds and hummingbirds singing
Gather round, ye dragonflies
You really are beautiful, dragonflies
These are a few of my favorite wings
I think I’m in the Dreamboat, my mom’s kayak
I don’t know if this is a paddle or an oar
I’m in an estuary right now
Soothing paddle sounds
A bounty of views
I’m seeing a couple different types of river plants under the water
Holy cow, a morning dive!
A water B-U-G
I’m sure we’ll some water striders before the end of the day
A grassy algae cloud
I wouldn’t call this M-U-C-K
This might be how I picture my story swamp
Heading towards a downed tree
A little baby fish just went by
We’re so lucky to be out here recording right now
Why is everything that looks like a pad a lily pad?
A leaf-like pad
Extensive Swamp Clouds
Those are new
If you’re a sci-fi artist, you gotta get down here
I just caught my first heady scent
Sunscreen mixed with skunk musk
I’m wearing 2 types of sunscreen right now
A dank, dank smell
Shoutout to my 420 friends
Holy cow, an otter or a muskrat! Maybe a beaver!
Musk Buddies
I’ll head where the musk buddy went
We’ve got some lavenders
Water-Based Flowers (WBF)
Okay, I’m following this turtle now
Pretty sure it’s a mammal
Following a musk buddy through the wardrobe
A beautiful slate gray dragonfly
Most underrated flying thing? Dragonfly for sure
Perched on a lily pad
Do lilies grow on lily pads?
Lady Slate, the dragonfly
I’ve heard that mammals do love my voice
Don’t get me wrong, I love a beaver
But we should give musk buddies their due, too
A lot of water B-U-G-S
Going into a swampy area for the floral action
I think I’ve recorded here before
That’s the rowboat I was sitting on when I recorded
Oh, there’s our first water strider!
I do have on a vest of L-I-F-E
I was in this swamp as a child
Wow, a darker, bigger dragonfly just flew in front of me
Whoa, you hear that frog?
Here’s a movie pitch
The Teensy, Tiny Dragonfly
Holy moly, a great blue heron just flew by!
Do herons and frogs sound the same?
Some beautiful white flowers here
Flowers, I won’t tell you how or when to pollinate
The dragonflies like me talking about plant love
Talking about nectar just make me sweat
A lot of kayaks and canoes parked near here
I’m drinking a [brand name] wild cherry cola
Church bells would really punctuate this setting right now
An unopened bulb awaits to bloom
It might be mucky, but I don’t think it’s yucky
Singing “Blackbird” to black birds
The Stoned Skunk, a children’s book
I wonder where our mammalian friend went
Did the Swamp Person have friends?
How come there’s no swamp friends?
How come the dragonflies don’t land on my boat?
Birds poop on lily pads!
I’m glad to be here, recharging with my swamp friends
I’m very thankful for my patrons
Thank you for being in value for value
The Heart-Shaped Lilypad
Dime-Sized Flowers (DSF)
They’re almost parchment like
You’re more beautiful than parchment, even though it’s my favorite parchment
I’m gonna try to stay in the shade a little while longer
Doing a 3 point turn in a kayak
I’ve got my favorite swim trunk on
They were here, waiting for me
Hello to the Cutest Dragonfly
Some glassy action on this surface right now
Is there impressionist VR?
IMO Lake Teri is the Greatest of the Great Lakes
Oh boy, crane city comin’ in!
Or maybe an Osprey
Selkirk Lighthouse – that’s an actual house
Surrounded by herons
No doubt these blue herons are Great
Whoa, it’s ruffling its feathers!
Its wings are a great blue color
Talk About Bird Luck!
I’ve got to keep an eye on my stuff
Back to Musk City
I know there’s a water chestnut issue here, but I don’t know what that looks like
A beautiful, delicate dragonfly
I’ll call you a bridefly
Holy Moly, another dragonfly!
I’m keeping an eye out for my parents
Time for some gentle paddling
I’m not sure if we saw aerobic or anaerobic activity
Time to explore one more swamp area
Really in the muck now
A whole lotta swamp gas
There’s just so many dragonflies
Counting dragonflies off to sleep
All these fishies wish you goodnight
Another Tar-Like Smell
Counting the sides
Thanks for supporting the show
