About this listen

Hear singer, songwriter, and actor Nick Jonas lend his voice to the history of one of his favorite subjects: baseball.

This unique story is written specifically to help you drift off, with no clear beginning, middle, or end, so you don’t need to follow the details too closely. In it, you’ll hear Nick Jonas describe how Joe DiMaggio and Ted Williams reached legendary status, and how they shaped the three components of a perfect swing.

What is the perfect swing? You might be asleep before you find out.

This title is part of a collection of audio experiences created to deliver your best sleep during this difficult time. While we’re giving this away for free, we’ll also be donating meals daily through Newark Working Kitchens so those in need and first responders don’t go to bed hungry.

Nick Jonas has an amazing narration voice. Not sure if it is because of his singing talents, but either way he could definitely be a narrator between albums.

The story was well written as well. Didn’t know some of that was said and am glad I now know. Very interesting.

Sure it was free but is worth the listen, it only 35 minutes so a quick listen.

Great easy listener

I unfortunately know what the perfect swing is now. The delivery and tone had me perfectly relaxed for the full duration, so while I didn't fall asleep, I did rest and learn more than I ever wanted to know about swinging a baseball bat.

Didn't Put Me To Sleep, But Was A Great Listen
