    This is my kind of ASMR. The kind that takes you back as a kid when you first experienced it at school in the library, or a talk show interview on old cable tv, or when a friend whispered something in your ear, or a teacher with a really soft voice and you just knew that it was super enjoyable, relaxing, and made you sleepy and you wondered if everybody else did this too.

    I can't agree more with you! I remember tingling sensations from stuff like this video. For me, Bob Ross in the 90s during elementary years, was my main source for ASMR without knowing it!

    100%. I would turn the tv on to some random channel that had a good voice talking. I’d close my eyes and flip through channels. I’d get sleepy if a teacher in school had a good voice.

    Sometimes I miss working at a call center for a utility company. Sometimes you would get a caller with a soft voice that just triggers the brain. It was so nice.

Try and find out why she's so special or competent or what specific achievement(s) that warrant "MIT" exulting? don't know... any academic citations other than "MIT", like Marvin Minksy or other professor/scientists that teach there? No... like nothing at all... so, like, what's the big deal other than she's a woman living and working in a man's world working her way up the corporate ladder? Break it down for me "MIT"
