Sleep With History

In the shadowed quiet of pre-Columbian nights, beneath the vast, starry sky, wander with us through the majestic world of the Aztec Empire. As we trace the Mexica from their mythical origins in Aztlan, guided by prophetic visions toward the establishment of Tenochtitlán, feel the pulse of an empire built on the back of visionary engineering and profound spirituality. Drift across their floating gardens, and through the bustling markets of a metropolis interlaced with canals, where every stone tells a story of power, belief, and celestial alignment. As night deepens, let the echoes of ancient might and whispers of the gods lull you into dreams of a lost world, waiting just beyond the veil of sleep. This episode is hosted by Ashley Johnson.
