Tried listening to ocean waves while camping last weekend and now I'm ditching my true crime podcasts at bedtime

A raccoon rustling outside my tent at 3 AM made me realize how much the ocean wave sounds actually help me calm down, but has anyone else noticed those free apps on the app store always have ads that are louder than the waves?

Oh man, I gotta disagree about ditching true crime at bedtime. Those stories actually help me fall asleep way better than ocean waves because my brain focuses on following the details instead of spinning out about random stuff like raccoons or work the next day.

Yeah I read this one study where they said true crime actually keeps some people's brains more alert even if they feel relaxed. But @nancy817 I get what you mean about focusing on details, sometimes my brain just needs a story to latch onto instead of the quiet.
