Relax in the backseat on a quiet nighttime drive with calming sleep stories by Oscar Wilde. Featuring “The Happy Prince” and “The Nightingale and the Rose,” this episode pairs gentle narration with the hum of the highway and the soft crackle of a dashboard radio — a nostalgic soundscape designed to help you unwind and fall asleep fast. In The Happy Prince, a golden statue and a selfless swallow give all they have to ease the suffering of others — a moving meditation on compassion and sacrifice. The Nightingale and the Rose tells a bittersweet tale of unrequited love, as a nightingale offers her life to help a student’s romance, only to be dismissed. 00:00 – The Ride Home soundscape & bedtime introduction 13:15 – The Happy Prince by Oscar Wilde 37:00 – The Nightingale and the Rose by Oscar Wilde 52:40 – Closing The Ride Home soundscape The Sleep Retreat is a production of Six Horse Media.
