Yes — honestly and up front. Every story is an original tale written for this club, and the narration is produced with AI text-to-speech using a warm storyteller voice. There are no human actors and no scraped or re-uploaded audiobooks. If you want a sample of exactly what it sounds like, the free story on the homepage is the real thing, not a polished demo.
The stories are written for kids roughly ages 3–8: gentle language, no scary bits, calm endings, about four minutes each. Younger toddlers enjoy the soothing narration; older kids enjoy the characters.
Story 1 unlocks on launch night, story 2 the next night, and so on through all 14 — checked automatically every time you open your feed or the web player. Everyone in the club is on the same story together, so it feels like a shared nightly ritual.
Two ways. (1) Private podcast feed: after subscribing you get a personal RSS link by email within 24 hours — paste it into Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Overcast, or any podcast app. (2) Web player: the same email includes a link that plays everything right in your browser. No app required.
Your link is personal to your subscription. If it starts showing up in unusual places we may rotate it — we will always email you the new one.
Anytime, from your Stripe receipt or by emailing indiemarketingarsenal@proton.me. Your feed keeps working until the end of the paid month. No contracts, no cancellation maze.
Bedtime Audio Club is made by Indie Marketing Arsenal, a tiny independent studio making small useful things on the internet. The stories are original works — characters like Luna the Lighthouse Mouse and Bramble the Bear were created for this club and appear nowhere else.
No ads, no sponsorship reads, no tracking pixels in the audio files. Just the story.
