Hello, welcome to jasonnewland.com. I've got some light on in here but the lighting doesn't seem so bright today for some reason. And this is let me bore you to sleep number 75. And the whole point of this is that I just talk for about an hour about pretty much nothing and that's it.
Might seem like an unusual thing to do and I suppose in some ways it is quite an unusual thing to do. But I feel that way about people that maybe, or the activity rather, not the people, but the activity of hand gliding or parachuting or mountain climbing or um what is it called? Potholing? You know when people climb into going to cracks in like in the ground and then start exploring like a cave and stuff like that. Yeah, so you know we all do different things don't we to amuse ourselves.
So this isn't really, this is kind of like a, I try to explain it every time. Every time I start a new session I try to explain. So I've got, I'm doing this live on Facebook so I will say hello to people as they come you know online.
But I also am aware that most of the people that will be watching or listening to this will be listening after it's been live. So say hi to a Boston chickie and only listen to this or watch this video whether it's live or whether it's, well I'm live you know hopefully I'll, otherwise I won't be able to do this all right. But only listen or watch if you can safely close your eyes because it is intentionally boring, hence the title Let Me Bore You To Sleep.
So this, if you're looking for a stimulating party atmosphere then this probably isn't the place for you right now. But if you're looking for something relaxing and calm and kind of pointless but at the same time with a point. So that's, that might seem like a kind of a strange thing to say but I think that's what this is.
I'm just going to arrange the, oh that's a bit better, arrange the microphone stand or the the stand of the, it was a, I don't know what to call it really. It's a tripod. So it's a stand which holds a connection which can hold a camera or can hold a phone depending on what additional connection you add to the particular, you know, into the thread of the connection that's connected to the top of this tripod holder thing, if that makes any sense.
So I did this last night or yesterday, again it was early hours of the morning on Sunday morning and at the end of the session after an hour I, you know, came to the end and I looked at Facebook and it had been shared quite a few times which was fairly unusual because I hadn't shared it. So I don't know who had shared it or where they'd shared it but some people started coming on in and talking to me saying that they'd seen the link on Craigslist and they started asking me about a sofa which they thought was on sale and they thought that this was a, I think one asked, when does the auction start for the sofa or did they call it a couch?
Yeah, a cooch, could not cooch, couch. They said, when does the, when does the sale start, the auction? And I said, what auction? They said, the auction for the couch.
I said, but I don't have a couch. Why would I do an auction for a couch that I don't actually own or possess or, you know, unless I suppose I was holding the auction for somebody else that did own a couch and was using my auctioneering skills then that would kind of mean that I'd need to have some kind of auctioneering skills and I've never, I've never auctioneered before and I don't know if you've seen any of those auctioneering programs like warehouse auctioneering, you know, where they go into a job lot place and the bloke speaks about 700 miles an hour.
I'm probably not the person to be, you know, being an auctioneer because by the time I describe the first item, well, it'd be time for the next program to start, I guess.
You know what I mean? So yeah, I'm not an auctioneer. I don't think I ever really wanted to be an auctioneer. I don't think that's ever been on my list of hopes and aspirations to be an auctioneer.
Yeah, I don't. No, it's not something I ever really kind of aspired to. There's been a few jobs that I considered that I might like to do and it depends how far back you want to go, but I think when I was, when I was, I think when I was at school, school, so I know some people, some kids, there's the cliches now of wanting to be a train driver or wanting to be an astronaut or something like that and although I did used to read books about astronomy and I used to actually used to draw spaceships as well.
I don't mean, I didn't go to NASA or and, you know, they didn't give me access to the various spaceships that have landed in, you know, in their underground bunkers that they've hidden away and let me, didn't let me, here's a sketch pad, Jason, just draw them but don't tell anybody. But not like that, what I mean is I used to kind of design my little spaceships. They were more kind of in the kind of like Buck Rogers kind of period when Buck Rogers was on television in the early 80s.
I used to like Buck Rogers and I actually drew him. There was a period of time when, because I had a chicken pox, I think at this particular time that I drew him. So I had Look In Magazine, which is the magazine I used to get.
I used to get Look In Magazine and The Dandy and they were two, basically two comics for children but one of them was more of a television based comic. And I think my oldest brother used to get Football Magazines and then my other older brother, the middle one, he used to get, if I remember rightly, Beano and Whizzer and Chips. So he used to get the Beano and Whizzer and Chips.
I used to get The Dandy and Look In every week. And I used to collect the comics. I've collected them for years actually.
And I watched the, yeah, so I had, there used to be posters that used to come with Look In Magazine of all the latest pop stars and television stars and maybe football stars, sports stars. So I remember I had a picture of Sharon Davies who was an Olympic swimmer. She was an Olympic gold swimmer.
She was a bit of a superstar at that time and I had a picture of her on my wall. And I think Adam and the Ants, and there used to be pictures of Adam and the Ants and there was pictures of Shaken Stevens. And these were posters.
So in the middle of each copy of Look In, it might have been called Look In Weekly, or it might have been called Look In Magazine. It's spelled L-O-O-K-I-N. But I think it was Look and then In.
There might have been a dash between the Look and the In. And the Battle Gar Stalactica. I used to watch that when it first was out, I think late 70s, early 80s.
Buck Rogers. I liked it for quite a few different reasons. It was, you know, it's funny.
It was creative. It was just really entertaining. Used to be on a Saturday early evening, if I remember correctly.
Pretty sure it was. Saturday evening. And I remember Buck Rogers because he had, for some reason, he was always getting his top off and he had a really hairy chest, a bit like Magnum.
They were kind of the two hairy chest men, Magnum P.I. and Buck Rogers. And then who else? Again, another hairy man, um, Mork from Mork and Mindy. So I used to have pictures of him, so posters.
I think I probably had him on my wall with his stripy top. And so that used to be on on Saturdays as well. But that's, you're going back to like 1978, if I remember correctly.
So late 80s, used to kind of be on my wall until the early 80s, late 70s until the early 80s rather. So I have this memory of going to the cinema with my oldest brother. And he took me to see Superman.
I think. Might be Spider-Man. But he took me to the cinema on a Saturday afternoon.
And when we got home, we got back just in time to watch Mork and Mindy. And we were living in the old house where my then granddad ended up living. So I do believe Mork and Mindy would have been on late 80s, late 70s.
Same kind of period as the Bionic Man. I think that used to be on Thursday evenings. And if I'm correct, I think Charlie's Angels used to be on on Tuesday evenings.
Yeah, as if I remember correctly, there was a time when Star Trek, kind of got to say the original series, but at that time there was no other series. That was the only one there was. But they were from the 60s.
In the early 80s, I think every Monday evening on a BBC Two, around 6.30 maybe, Star Trek used to be on, you know, the one with Captain Kirk. So Superman was 1978. Yeah, I saw Superman in 78.
I'd be eight, depending on what time of the year it was. Because if I was... If I saw it after the end of August, in 1978, I would have been eight. If I'd seen it before the end of August, 1978, I'd have been seven, if it had been during that year.
So if it had been... If Superman had been released at the cinema in January 1978, I would have been seven. If Superman, the movie, if it had been released in February 1978, I would have... Yeah, I would have been seven as well. If it had been... Superman had been released at the cinema in March 1978, I would have been seven.
If Superman had been released in April 1978, good time for chocolate eggs, I would have been seven. May time, which would probably be summery. I don't mean as in we're just going to summarize what I'm saying.
I mean summery as in warm weather, daffodils, although that's kind of more spring, isn't it? But spring and summer, they do kind of mingle together a little bit. They're quite nice, happy dancing partners. I don't know if I've ever heard... You hear people that call their children spring.
Not that often, but you hear summer. People call their child summer or autumn. But I don't think I've ever heard anyone called winter.
By the way, autumn, I don't know if you're in America, autumn is... Yeah, fall, you call it fall. So I can't imagine as many children called fall either. Yeah, we call it autumn.
I don't know what the correct name for it is. I'm going to assume that autumn is the right one. So I'm not quite sure how... I wonder how fall came about.
Why it's called fall? Why don't we call spring... What can we call that jump? And winter, we call that shivery. What's the other one? Summer, we could call that... Where's the air conditioning? Yes, I suppose we could all have different... Oh, Andrea says that the reason it's called fall in the United States of America is because the leaves on the trees fall. Oh, that's a long-winded way to get to the word fall.
So I suppose based on that logic, we could call the summer cold shower. Couldn't we call summer cold shower? Cold shower. It's so hot, I'm all sweaty and stinky, now I need a cold shower.
We could call it summer... Oh, you could call winter, couldn't you? Could call winter cold shower. Where's my towel? It's winter, it's so cold, I'm going to have a nice hot bath and I'll just shampoo my hair. Oh no, I've got shampoo in my eyes.
Where's my towel? So that, yeah, based on the logic of the last kind of words of the sentence pertaining to a particular season, I mean, autumn, yeah, fall, the leaves fall. It's also windy though, isn't it? Which is why the leaves, not the reason they fall, but it's why they fall in such a way that they do, you know, like a blast of wind, windy, leafy stuff. It's spring.
Why do we call it spring? The leaves spring out, is that what it is? The leaves spring, instead of falling, they spring. Yeah, autumn could be slip, couldn't it? Because when I do, when I walk through the park in autumn, the whole place is full of leaves, but when they're about mashed down by all the people walking, cause me to slip. Andrew says, Google it.
I'm making stuff up. I don't need to Google. I, in my world, things are whatever I tell them to be.
It's quite good. So if I decide that a suitcase is called a suitcase, because someone once needed to, they actually needed somewhere to put their suit, but they were shaped like a suitcase. So that's the kind of shape they made their suitcase out of, even though it wasn't really any good for a suit, because it was actually laid out flat, but that was the shape of them.
And then that's how it is. There's no Googling needed. I know people that, they don't Google.
It's like they don't use the internet. And some people are still, they have old information, just like passed on from years and years and years ago, that isn't actually correct. Which if you went onto YouTube, you could actually see a video giving you the exact thing that happened.
Let's say it's a news item or whatever, a sporting event. And it's hard to try to explain that, that actually they've got the wrong information. Because some people like to really cling to it, like it's a sticky tissue, like it's going to somehow produce life.
And it's not, it just needs to be flushed away. So yeah, Andrea says, throws a pillow at Jason's face. No, no pillows.
Pillows are really good for sleeping on. I noticed that, it's really good. When you lay down, if you've got a pillow, get a pillow.
If you put it at the top of the bed, like where your head is, and then you rest your head on the pillow, it's really comfortable. I really recommend trying it. It's really, really comfortable.
And I find that if you get a nice, comfortable position where a pillow is involved, you can just drift off to sleep. It's nice. I'm surprised this laptop is making as much noise as it is.
I didn't think it would. Normally it seems quite quiet, but there again, it is quite quiet in here, which is part of the reason why I do these things in the middle of the night, because that's the only time when it's as peaceful as this. What was I going to say? Oh, going back to the Mork & Mindy Superman.
I think in June, if it had been June 1978, I still would have been seven. If it had been July 1978, I would have been seven. Even if it had been the 1st of August 1978, I still would have been seven, because I was seven for ages and ages.
It seemed to last longer than a year. However, at the time, I don't think I was really that bothered about age. And I don't think kids really are really that worried about age or care about age.
It's just that maybe the parents make a big deal about it. It's all, how old are you? How old are you? Oh, say your age. Oh, Jason, say your age.
How old are you? You can do it. Tell me your age. How old are you? I'm 23, Dad.
I'm 23. Leave me alone. So yeah, it's not really a big thing for me, really.
The whole age thing so much, it's not even that much of a big thing now. It's just an age. It's an age, isn't it? Just an age.
It's just an aggie. So, I have to keep everything nice and light, because this is a sleep session. Let me bore you to sleep.
Relaxing, calming, loosening, floppying. Trying to think of some other words. I'm not sure if floppying actually exists.
I've just invented floppying. Why not? Other superhero films I liked is Spider-Man. The original Spider-Man film, which was around the same time as Superman.
Might have even been earlier, but it might have been later. Andre's just popped out to... I don't know what he's come out to do. He's just come out.
He's done a wee-wee. He's now laying under the table, because he knows I can't get to him without getting out of the chair. I'm going to grab him, though.
There we go. Little Andre is back again. He smells lovely.
He does. He doesn't always smell lovely, I'll be honest. But he has a smell, kind of a really nice... I don't know how to explain it.
I suppose it's just Andre's smell. He just smells like my boy. And you've got a beautiful smell, haven't you? Yes, he has.
Don't you smell lovely? I'm going to give him kisses. Give daddy kisses. All day long, you give daddy kisses.
By the way, I'm holding a ferret up, just in case you're thinking that the audio's turning weird, if you can't see. Just me and Andre. As I say to anyone, if you are still awake, listening, if you're listening to the audio or whatever, if you check out the video on YouTube or wherever, you can stream it live.
Not live, but you can stream it on my website as well. You can see the little Andre the ferret, just chilling out. Yes, yes you can.
He does his little sigh, just like that, doesn't he? So I should say hello to those of you that are listening, well, watching on YouTube, of course. Those of you watching on Facebook, I should say hello to those of you listening on SoundCloud when you listen to this. Hello to you who are listening on Spreaker.
Hello to those of you that are listening on iTunes. Hello to those of you that are listening to me on CastBox. Hello to those of you that are listening to me on iHeartRadio.
Hello to those that are listening to me on Spotify. Hello to those of you that are listening to me on, where else, TuneIn. Hello to those of you that are listening to me on Stitcher, and any other, maybe mobile phone apps that you're listening on.
Or hello if you've downloaded this free MP3 from my website at jasonnewland.com. It's always lovely to have your company and for you to be, I don't know, you're part of this, you're part of this experience. Whether or not you're watching live, whether or not you comment or anything, you're part of it if you're listening at some point, somewhere, even if it's in 20 years time. You're part of this.
We're all in it together. He got his tongue out. You got your tongue out.
He wants to let go now. Don't want to let you go. Oh, he's tired as well, aren't you? I'll let him go.
There you go. Go and do your thing, wherever your thing is. I quite like sticking him on the live broadcasts when I get a chance, because what I'm going to be doing at some point is, I'll go through some of the videos and just sort of maybe edit those little bits out to make a little collage, like a video collage, if that's such a thing.
Of clips of Andre. So I wonder what other films I watched at that time. The heating's gone off.
It's getting, yeah, winter could be called radiators, couldn't it? Because you need radiators on. So I haven't done much today, really. I mean, literally, I haven't done much.
It was quite nice. I didn't go to bed till early hours, whatever time it was. But for some reason, Andre, he wanted to come to bed with me.
Normally, he's not really a cuddler when it comes to sleeping. He likes to sleep at the bottom of the bed. You know, so that I'm not bothering him.
But for some reason, he wanted to sleep at the top of the bed with me, on top of the quilt. And he stayed there for hours and hours and hours. And he was, in fact, I was out of bed before he was.
So that was quite nice. Just having him there, hearing him, hearing him breathe in and maybe having a little dream. And then I fell asleep and I was probably dreaming and he was probably saying, Daddy, Daddy, shush, you're snoring again.
Daddy. Daddy. Daddy.
He might. I don't know if he did that or not. But he, yeah, I'm sure he must have probably got off the bed a couple of times as well and came back.
But I didn't hear that. I was asleep. He seemed quite happy.
So I didn't really do a lot. And then I did a deep sleep whisper session earlier on, or yesterday, which is in the evening. So I did that video.
I did the audio first and made a video and uploaded it and did all the work involved there. So that's nice because that podcast for the deep sleep whisper hypnosis is fairly popular. So I haven't done one since the 2nd, I think, of January.
And then it was the 6th of January yesterday. Or was it the 4th of January I last did one? I think it was four days ago. Yeah, it would have been because if it was the 4th of January, because I'm looking at my 2019 calendar as we speak.
It's on the wall over there. And my intention this year throughout 2019, including January, February, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November, December. I managed to do 11 months.
I better do it again. January. I know because I've already done January.
January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November, December 2019. Throughout those 12 months, including this month, which is January 2019, it is the yeah, it's the 7th today. So my aim is to produce 1,000 videos and mp3s throughout 2019, which would mean doing about three a day.
So far, I've not really reached that. So here's so far what I've done. On the 1st of January this month, I did one recording.
On the 2nd of January this month, which is five days ago, yeah, five days ago, I did two sessions. On 3rd of January, I did zero sessions. On Friday, the 4th of January, I did one session.
On Saturday, the 5th of January this month, I did one session. On Sunday, the 6th of January, I did two sessions. So yesterday, I did a let me boy to sleep number 74, which was early hours in the morning.
And then in the evening, I did that deep sleep number 17, deep, deep whisper, or deep whisper sleep, whatever it's called, number 17. So that's 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7. And including this eight. So that means this is the eighth session I've done so far this week.
So far this year, rather, also so far this week, because it's still only Monday. So that would mean the entire week. So at the end of today, I'll have done eight, unless I do more later.
Because on Thursday, the 3rd of January, this year, a couple of days back, I was out all afternoon. So I just didn't have the inclination to really do anything. But there again, I was out all day on Saturday as well.
But I still did something on Saturday. So, you know, it just depends on how you feel, I suppose, or how I feel, rather. But I, yeah, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8. I mean, my aim, my aim was as a very basic, to one, let me bore you to sleep every day during 2019.
And do one deep sleep whisper every day during 2019. And then get the remainder of what's needed through doing other things, other sessions. Now, the deep sleep whisper ones seem to be coming in quite regular.
And if they're useful, then I will continue to make them. I'm not just going to make them for the sake of it. But, you know, as I said earlier, more people would listen to them afterwards than watch them live.
But recording it live is a lot easier for me in a sense of not having to do any editing. It's not just through laziness, although that does, that is part of it. But it's also about time.
Because if I make a video for an hour, you know, offline, just make it on the camera, on the phone, and then try to, you know, upload that, you know, all I need to do is, it takes sometimes a few hours to upload. Sometimes it just won't upload because of the size of the file. So it's kind of more for administration purposes that I do it this way.
Although, I've got a friend in America that says that she's going to send me her iPad to use for doing this, you know, doing these things. So then I might be able to, might be a way of transferring the files to the iPad from the iPhone, or maybe do the live streams on the iPad, and then do the editing and upload it to YouTube. So it might be a lot easier and more, which might be better.
Just say hello to Beth Marie. Hello. So I'm just, you've been on here before, so you know, this is just me talking about nothing really.
It's an hour of, I like to think of it as, it's not just nonsense. Although it can be. But it's also, it's a relaxing time.
I try and keep things light. I don't generally talk, you know, I try and keep things gentle and light and even regardless of what other people might post while I'm doing it. Yesterday was an example of that.
I try and laugh my way around it so as not to affect the relaxing, sleepy experience that may be involved with those that are watching or listening to this session for those purposes. So yesterday I had a few people wanting to actually join in the chat and actually come online and onto the screen and talk, and I had to sort of say no, thank you, because this isn't that kind of thing. Just because it's kind of not fair on those that are listening to it and they're relaxed and suddenly there's another voice comes on and, you know, it could be kind of jolting a bit.
Is my microphone slipping down my... I'm just going to touch the microphone gently, just bear with me two seconds. I think it's falling down. Sorry if this is a little bit of a weird sound, but the microphone needs to be... Oh, so I'm touching the microphone.
Basically, the little furry bit on the end of the microphone has disappeared. I think Andre might have... I wonder if he's eaten it? Oh, there it is. God, that was the chair squeaking.
Sorry about that. Just shows you things sound different when that isn't on. When the spongy thing... When the spongy bit isn't on the microphone, it kind of makes things sound different.
So I do apologize for if things have been sounding a bit weird because I haven't had the sponge bit on the microphone. So it might be a bit scrapey, some of the sounds. And also when I was looking for the microphone, not realizing that it was still there.
Let's see how tiny it is. There you go, look. That's absolutely tiny.
I haven't heard those words in ages. I do need to get myself a girlfriend. Look.
In fact, if you go like this, it's like a little Michael Jackson. I want you back. Oh, I want you back.
A, B, C. It's easy as 1, 2, 3. So yeah. How many more minutes have we got? We've got five more minutes. So the good thing is there are different density of sponge, Janneke says.
I would put it back on to the microphone, but I know that it's going to make a bit of a lot of kind of feedback kind of stuff, possibly. And some people might have, well, hopefully, like drifted off asleep. That's why sometimes near the end of the session, I might say a few silly things, but nothing bad.
But I don't want to kind of start making strange noises by scratching the microphone or anything like that. Does that make sense? So that's why I kind of can leave it off. But I will put the protection, I will put my protection back on the end to protect the whole, make sure that what goes in, only what goes in is safe.
The thing is, I don't think I've ever used this microphone without the little Michael Jackson head hat that he used to wear. He used to wear a little hat. It looks a little bit like the Tower of London hats that the guards wear, the little microphone hats.
So, but the Tower of London, I don't like it when you try and talk into their heads, especially when you start singing. And don't ever tap on their head going, one, two, one, two, testing, testing, one, two. I do not like that at all.
But yeah, so this is my little protection. So what I'll do is I'll put it on when I finish this session and just say thank you to Beth. And Yanika says, go watch the Aquaman.
There are so many sponges on the sea. You know what? I do want to go and watch Aquaman, but I've got no one to watch it with and I don't want to go on my own. So there, I do want to go and watch.
The thing is, sometimes I get a little bit confused when I watch, because I've seen Aquaman on, obviously on the Batman, Superman film that he was on. And sometimes I get a little bit lost in when I was watching that film, seeing Aquaman, because I'd be watching it and suddenly I'd lose concentration and I'd see myself and I think, what the hell am I doing on the screen? How did I get out there? And then I realised it's not me, it's Aquaman, because clearly we have very similar bodies. And it's, put it this way, if my life story was ever told, they'd need to pretty much get him to play me.
And you'd see him talking about, you know, doing, talking about nothing on an iPhone online. So you'd need to get that actor to play me. Yeah.
Imagine it'd be quite expensive, but it should be. If it's a film about me, it should cost a lot. That's what I think.
When I think about it really, I'm only, I'm so solitary that even if you did make a film about me, you'd only need one actor because, and a ferret, you could just get a little stuffed stuffed doll, couldn't you? Pretend it was a ferret and just go like that. Or you could borrow Andre or you could use footage, real footage of Andre, you know, and kind of superimpose it onto the thing, you know, onto the video, maybe. So yeah, I've got a story to tell you.
I've got a light, I've got this light, which is specifically to be put in around behind the camera so that kind of light makes the light in a bit better and stuff. It was so bright. I couldn't look at the camera.
I was like that. And it didn't, just didn't do the job. And it cost me £19.
I know it wasn't expensive, but just seems like a bit of just a waste of money. Yeah. So Yannicka says, nice seeing you.
So is that nice seeing me smiling or nice seeing me and you're smiling? And little, little love hearts on your cheeks. I can't, see my eyesight's terrible. I can't, I'm not sure if you're, if those emojis are nice emojis or you're bored that, you know, sticking your tongue out at me.
I don't, I can't hardly see them. Oh, I am, am I smiling? Oh, thank you. That's my smile.
That's my practiced smile. You know, when I was 17, no 18, I worked in this factory. I lived in this room.
I rented a room and the house was full of women. Just, just happened to be every single room was taken up by young women and the landlady that lived there as well. And the landlady, they were all standing around one evening watching Hale and Pace on television.
It was in one of their rooms and I was just, it was quite funny. I was laughing. And the landlady, she said, you know what? You look much better when you smile.
That's the whole story. That's why I'd share it with you. So I remember back after that, it's kind of stuck with me a little bit.
And then in, so that was when I was 18. So then when I was 27, no, 27, yeah, 27, yeah, 27. When I was 27, so I waited nine years and I thought, oh, perhaps I'll give this smiling a go.
Give it a go. Cause I had a job in a, I was working in a nightclub and I thought, I know, I'll see how this smiling stuff, you know, see if it's, if it does anything, if it goes anywhere. And it did, it did.
It's, yeah, I think people found me a little bit more approachable when I smiled compared to grimacing. Not that I don't think I've really ever been a grimacer. I don't know.
Grimace? I don't know what a grimace, is that a grimace? I'm not sure. But yeah, I think, I don't know. Because when I do these recordings, so if I do some of my past videos, like if you go back a few years ago, some of them, I kind of keep quite a straight face and very, I'm not always serious, you know, the whole way through, but some of them, I'm quite serious in them.
But when I do a live broadcast like this, I can't keep serious for an hour. And because this isn't a serious session, this isn't, this is just a relaxing hour of me just talking about nothing or something or bits and bobs and nothing important necessarily. And sometimes I will spend 10 minutes talking about one thing and making it last way longer than it could ever necessarily be justified.
And that's kind of part of the plan. So it can hopefully suit for people that want to just fall asleep and just drift off, relax. Because falling asleep, it needs to be relaxation beforehand.
I think falling asleep isn't something, it's like anything, you shouldn't, you can't, don't ever force a fart. I think that's one of the things in life. But you can't force, you can't force yourself to be hungry.
You can't force yourself to go to the toilet. You can't force yourself to feel relaxed. You can't force yourself to feel tired.
It's about just allowing it to happen and allowing yourself to feel relaxed and calm. And then, then you can drift off to sleep. And for those that don't want to do that, you can just feel relaxed.
Because this hour of me talking, regardless of if you're watching or listening live, it might be an hour where you can just really let go and let your mind, just give your mind a little holiday for an hour a day. And a good thing is, well, it's not necessarily a good thing, but I do these fairly regularly. So it's not just, I've not just got like a couple of sessions that you can listen to.
And then you're thinking, well, I've listened to this and quite a few times now, and I wish you'd do some more stuff. It's kind of the opposite. I've done so many sessions, 75 of these.
I've also done over 800, if not more, recordings over the years. They're all available somewhere. I can't even be bothered to promote my stuff.
It's online somewhere, just have a look. My SoundCloud podcast has everything that's available to listen to stream or to download. YouTube has probably nearly 500 videos, I think, just less than 500.
And so Yannicka says, well, in old days, ladies couldn't smile because of it created wrinkles, but those days are over. And men were so lucky, no rules, never ever. So use it more often.
It suits you. Oh, thank you. Well, I suppose if smiling creates wrinkles for women, it's going to create wrinkles for men.
But I'm way past that age to, I can't, I don't know. I think when it comes to wrinkles, I don't even think about it really. Because I know, I know and I'm aware that what I see in the mirror isn't what other people see.
The same as what you see in the mirror isn't what, okay, maybe not what other people, isn't what everybody sees. People see us differently based on their own internal world. Because, you know, I might think, oh, I've got this big beard, it's getting bigger and no woman would want to, you know, be interested in dating someone with a big, big flappy beard like this.
But that's not the case. It might be for lots of people, but not for everybody. Nothing is for everybody.
There's always, you know, everyone's got their own likes and, you know, preferences. And I think that's what makes, makes things interesting, really. And also, you know, on a camera, when you see someone, it's quite often the photograph is not even the right way round, is it? As far as the, you see the left side, but actually it's the right side you're seeing.
So it looks different. If you look in the mirror, it looks different to the way that it would look if you looked at yourself directly. Beth got so bored with that.
I bored you so much, didn't I? I won. I won, Beth. I really bored you to the point where you have to make up having a son.
You haven't even got a child, you're making it up. Oh, I've got to make up having a child because I've got to get out of this. It's so boring.
I can't listen to him anymore. All right, Beth, have a nice day or evening, wherever you are. And I don't know what part of, I forget.
Yannicka says, have you seen ornaments for a beard? What do you mean, like a Christmas tree? All right, say hello to Elijah for me. Or like, Eliah, Elijah or Eliah? Beth, bye. Yeah, I don't want to really walk around with a Christmas tree or my beard.
Can you imagine walking around with like little bells and on the top of my head, I could have a little angel. Looks like it's on the toilet. Yeah, I can have a little angel sitting on a toilet on the top of my head.
That's what I'm going to do if I ever get married. I'm going to have both the bride and the groom sitting on toilets on top of the cake. Bye, Beth.
So that's the end of my, today's let me bore you to sleep. I will be back again tomorrow with another one, very likely. So watch this space.
And of course, even if you can't catch me live, then catch me afterwards. Listen, you can watch me on YouTube. Every video I upload to YouTube, every video stays on Facebook as well, the live ones.
And every video, there's an audio of every video available to stream and download as well. So I'm going to go. Bye, everybody.
Bye, Beth and bye, Yannicka. And anyone else that's watching at this precise moment. And my website is jasonnewland.com. And tomorrow I will have my little, I'll be wearing my little hat on my little friend, the microphone, before I start and I will stay on there.
It's never fallen off before. At least it didn't split, I suppose. Yeah, it just came off.
So I'll put it back on the microphone when I finished here. Take care, everyone. Bye.
