HEADSPACE X SESAME STREET

Headspace and Sesame Workshop have teamed up again for the return of the second season of the popular Goodnight, World! podcast. Each episode includes a wind-down story narrated by a rotating cast of Sesame Street friends; a “sleep journey” led by one of Headspace’s sleepcast readers and a soothing soundscape of music and relaxing sounds that evoke favorite places like Hoopers and the Community Garden on Sesame Street.
