Salt Spring Island, British Columbia, Canada - January 13, 2026 - In a time characterized by the "Attention Economy," where every media piece is crafted to capture attention, a former national news anchor is initiating a counter-movement based on an entirely different concept: sheer, structural monotony.
Dallas Kachan has today unveiled the launch of Deeply Unimportant, a high-fidelity sleep podcast that leverages his professional broadcasting authority-often referred to by listeners as the "Voice of God"-to narrate technical manuals, municipal regulations, and administrative data. This podcast is not intended for entertainment purposes; rather, it aims to serve as a "cognitive anchor" for the countless adults grappling with insomnia and intrusive thoughts.
"For many years, my role was to engage audiences. Now, my mission is to help them drift off," Kachan states. "There exists a portion of the audience-particularly those with ADHD or high-pressure jobs-who find conventional 'bedtime stories' or 'calming rain sounds' either too childish or overly repetitive. They do not require a fairy tale; they require a structural metronome for their minds. They need assurance that someone else is in charge so they can relinquish control."
Deeply Unimportant debuts with a collection of six initial "sedations," including 8-hour renditions of:
· ICAO Annex 5 Standard Atmosphere & Unit Conversion: The universal units of measurement utilized in international civil aviation.
· The 1922 Western Softwood Lumber Grading Rules: An exhaustive evaluation of "sound, tight knots" and permissible wane.
· NASA Man-Systems Integration Standards: An analysis of workstation ergonomics and fastener accessibility in zero gravity.
· The 1954 Singer Sewing Machine Manual: An in-depth mechanical guide covering oscillating hooks and bobbin tension.
· The Global Non-Compliance Ledger: A clinical, alphabetical listing of first names from Santa's "Naughty List."
· The International Convention for Safe Containers (CSC 1972): An in-depth structural analysis of the twenty-foot equivalent unit.
This podcast sidesteps the clichés typically associated with sleep content-there is no whispering (ASMR), no forced emotionality, no monotonous music, and no narrative hooks. Instead, Kachan employs a flat, professional tone that addresses the brain's desire for logic while overwhelming its curiosity-a strategy psychologists refer to as "cognitive shunting."
Deeply Unimportant is now available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and all major podcast platforms. For listeners desiring uninterrupted, ad-free "all-night" episodes and additional exclusive content, a premium ad-free feed can be found at deeplyunimportant.com.
