I listen to podcasts in bed. If I fall asleep, I listen again the following night.

I listen to help me sleep. I’m a side sleeper and just use one air bud and I turn the speed down to 0.8 speed. My sleep books are different than my walking/driving books - lots of nonfiction that you can pick up anywhere.

I’m a huge reader, somewhat new to audiobooks. I typically listen to books when I’m walking my dogs or doing chores. I’m finding I can’t listen to a book in bed without falling asleep within 5 minutes. This is not the case with “regular” books.
Just me? I’m now reading/listening to two books at the same time because of this quirk...
I consider this a feature, not a bug. When I lay down I bookmark my spot, set the timer for 30 min and never reach the end. Next day, I just start from my bookmarked spot.
How do you deal with earbuds? Do you use them?
My husband is not usually there so I can have the book playing out loud. If he's there, though, I have this sleep mask thingy I can use. Something like this:

I listen to audiobooks while I play games on my phone. If all I'm doing is lying in bed and listening, I will absolutely fall asleep.

Yes, but only non-fiction books. It is the only thing that turns off my overthinking brain and puts me to sleep within 15 minutes.

I cannot listen to audio books in bed, nor can I listen to them if I'm sitting down. I too fall asleep really quickly.

I am the opposite. Audiobooks keep me up, but when I switch to print, I’m asleep within a few pages.

Ok, interesting—thank you! I already listen to all audiobooks at 1.5 speed but maybe I need to adjust my expectations on what/how long I can listen before bed

I find that I need to listen at 1.5x instead of my usual 2.0x

+1 I do exactly this.
Though, right now I’m listening to Boehner’s book and it feels a little creepy to fall asleep to him each night. 🤣

I listen to them in order to fall asleep! Works like a charm.
