However, in the first episode, which aired on May 9th, 2022, the narrator recalls his childhood, bedtimes, bedrooms of his memories, and the peculiar states of consciousness related to sleep.\nThis episode features memories about the magic lantern the narrator\u2019s family gives him as a child to help him with his insomnia.
