Can we match the noise to its color? Welcome to Good Mythical More. Now we are going to hear a sound that corresponds with one of these options. We have some patterns, we have some colors of noises, and then we’re gonna see if we can match them. Stevie, do you know, I see that there’s writing on the back of here. Do you also have this information of what these noises do? Yeah, ’cause I feel like you should, I mean, we’ll play a noise and you guess what it is, but you need to know a little bit about the noises first. So maybe if you wanna poke around, learn about ’em and some of these are binaural beats, which we have experimented with a little bit on this show. Which is when each ear hears a tone at a slightly different frequency, your brain tries to compensate by creating the perception of a third sound. Oh. So that’s what, what that is about. And they can alter your brainwave activity. Let’s do this. Control us. Go ahead and play the first one. Okay. That’s right. This is correct. Okay. It’s almost like- I listen to brown noise, which is not an option. And why do you do that? Because I have an app that has different color noises and the brown noise had more of a bottom to it. You know, I’m a bottom guy. This feels more top heavy. Like, it feels like it might be in the pink area. It’s a fake rainfall. It feels kind of light, but also kind of high. Pink says more amplitude in the lower frequencies and decreasing amplitude in the higher frequency. Okay, so that’s not pink noise. Pink can help you stay asleep longer and help boost your memory when you wake up, interesting. Okay, green is the middle of the sound spectrum. So I think this might be green because gray is smoothed out version of pink noise that is perceptually more balanced to the human ear. I didn’t hear any bass in that. It sounded pretty middle of the road. It wasn’t too staticky, what is violet noise? All treble, no base. , oh, it could be that. That doesn’t sound fun. Can you play it one more time? That’s it. That might be violet. You might use it to stay awake on a long night drive in order to improve focus. Remember when we worked in that cubicle environment and they played noise? Yes. It was probably violet noise. If they knew what they were doing. They played like, static noise? Yes. We worked in the regional office for Campus Crusade and we were all in cubicles and everyone was on like, phone calls and stuff and it was like a job where there was a lot of people on the phone, that ends up being a little bit weird in that environment. We could do that here. We could have a little constantly. Violet noises- Did it help? Did it help you not to hear the other people? It didn’t, it did tend to disappear. Yeah, it did, it does, it did help. We worked in a closet. We did work in a closet. Violet noise is best for masking high frequency sounds in your environment, especially if you have tinnitus, if you do, I’m sorry. I think we can guess, and until we hear another sound, it’s gonna be really hard to know if this is violet. So sound number one is violet, let’s keep going. Okay, well, also shout out to DJ Grossman who did that sound for us. DJ Grossman? Yeah, no, Grossman. Grossman, one word. That’s my favorite. DJ Grossman! And note that you can kind of separate the noises in the patterns ’cause the patterns are the binaural beats and I’m gonna make you put on your headphones. That’ll be easy enough. So put on your headphones now for this next one. Bet this is a pattern. Hit it! Alpha, this is alpha, this is high. This is eight to 13 hertz. It feels low to me. No, lower would be whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Okay. It’s the frequency. It’s the frequency, that’s alpha. Shout out to the power of you. Let’s move. Violet then alpha. This next one is going to be a noise. So no need for your headphones. That’s got a little bit more, it’s lower, it feels like traffic. So this is either- Pink is low, gray is a smoothed out pink, green is naturally calming. Emphasizes the middle of the sound spectrum. Mid-range frequencies, lows and highs aren’t audible. You’re trying to work, read, right or sleep, green noise can help. This is either green or pink, I think maybe green. Let’s say it’s green. Okay, this next one’s a noise. Ooh, that is- That feels very white noise. Waterfall. It wouldn’t be this ’cause this is a pattern. We only have pink and gray. Oh, I meant for the last one. Shout out to Noah Edwards Official, and for this one, shout out to Dale’s Nail. What, why, because these people made these things? Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, no, actually I’m just shouting out people today that I feel the need to shout out. Different people. Why couldn’t one person make all of these? They could, do you not ever have noise? No, I have music. Oh yeah, have we told this story? We’ve talked about this, yeah. Okay, let’s tell it again. What are you talking about? Not everybody listens to every episode. I listen to a playlist called sleep, it is music. So I listen to white noise, brown noise to be specific. Well, I have an app when I travel that I use brown noise and then I have this like little machine in my room that I just kind of like, you just dial in and you just keep hitting it until you get to the white noise that you like. I really don’t know what it is. That’s what I have at home and I become addicted to it and I rely on it to sleep. Addicted to it. Meaning that if I don’t have it, it’s hard for me to fall asleep. Okay. The reason I do that is- You get in bed every night and you’re just like shaking for it. My beautiful wife who is wonderful in every way except for the fact that she snores and so, I’m a very light sleeper. So that’s how I got into this. Now we went on a little trip with a few couples. One of those couples was my friend here Link and his wife Christie and we shared a wall and we went to bed. We’re not greedy with our walls. We went to bed and in the middle of the night I’m awokened or awakened by like, come into a wall, like, and I’m like, what in the hell is happening? There is music on. And I’m like, maybe it’s like music out in the main part of the house where we were like listening to music earlier and then I realized, no, that is coming from Link and Christie’s house, room. They are listening to music all night long that comes and goes and it’s like a new track. And I was like, how, you gotta be heavy sleepers to do that. You’re both heavy sleepers, apparently. We’re used to it. It’s the soundtrack to our sleep lives. It changes just like your sleep changes over- So when a new song comes on, it doesn’t wake you up? No. But also how loud is it? Enough for the next couple to hear it. Yeah, so is that a volume at your house that is- To go through a wall? Yeah. Yeah, yeah. How? How does Christie sleep? You’ll sleep through anything, how does Christie sleep? She is a lighter sleeper, but she’s used to it. I don’t know, she hadn’t complained and I mean. She’s never been awakened by the sound. Listen, the proof is in the pudding. What did you hear the next morning? What did I hear the next morning? Have you have forgotten this part of the story? That didn’t happen. I didn’t forget this part of the story. That was a different trip, that was the cabin. No, I thought it happened on this trip too. I don’t remember that, I remember the cabin story. I do and Stevie does. It was a different trip. Play the next one. Oh wait, no, we need to- You heard one. You just heard one and you haven’t matched it. So what was that? Oh, play that one again. A waterfall. Pink. So we’re gonna say it’s pink. Okay, now you need to put your headphones on. Okay. Okay. See that’s slower. That’s theta. What is that supposed to make you do? Drowsiness and meditation. So you end up having a binaural beat at six hertz. So the whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, that’s something that the brain is creating. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So if you do this, do one. Yeah, just do one. Oh, no. It’s playing the room too. It’s playing mono. Shout out to HQ- Is it? Its not, maybe it’s not, play it again. Well, we’re playing it in the room and in your headphones. The same thing happened in our playing room maybe. Okay, we’re okay with that. I think that’s theta. During the lightest stages of sleep, your brain processes theta waves between four and eight hertz. Theta waves are associated with drowsiness and meditation. You already read this? I said some of it. When you travel, do you play the same soundtrack, like on your phone? Well, yeah, ’cause I was traveling and I was playing it from my phone. When you’re by yourself? Usually, yes. My phone might have been angled towards your the wall. This is what the exact thing I play when I’m traveling. And sometimes it’ll be this loud. That’s a powerful waterfall, feel like you’re drowning. Other options. Oh, that’s violet. You don’t want that. Blue. Well, let’s not cheat here. Pink. Yeah, you’re cheating dude. See the brown’s got the more. Yeah, the lower end. You’re not shouting anyone out. White noise. We didn’t need DJ Grossman, we needed this. Okay, you have two more, this one’s just a noise. And we’re saying it’s gray noise. Whoa. I like that. This is not a smoothed out version of pink noise. That’s low. That feels very green to me. What’s the lowest? Where’s the lowest? I don’t know, is it this one, is it green? Lower frequencies, its pink noise. I just played pink on my phone. What’s lower than pink? Pink’s always up in the rafters on a thing. It’s crazy what she does, like she’s on a harness and like all around- Tied up in a ribbon. It’s very impressive. And then she’ll… The stuff that she does is very, I would love to see it in concert. So, we’re gonna say gray. But I’m not going to. Okay, then put your headphones on for this last one. Slowest one at. That’s the lowest one. What’s the lowest one, delta? Oh, so the slowest one. These waves have a frequency under four hertz. As you transition into deeper sleep stages, your brain switches from theta waves to delta waves. Listening to Delta frequencies can help you sleep. So you can have it change throughout the- It kinda makes me think it should change, but then it needs to be tied to your biometrics. I’m sure somebody’s doing that. I don’t mean to bring this up, but remember like a minute ago when you lost that game really hard. Yeah. Well the good news is that you have a complete queen sweep with this game. Yes, we have done it! Are you serious? We’re the noise boys. We’re the noise boys! The noise boys strike again. DJ Noise Boys! Oh yeah, I didn’t do my other shout outs. Shout out Chris Knife 007 and Frequent Seeker at Most in Moods. Oh, Frequent Seeker, that’s a good name. It feels so good to be on top again, oh my gosh. Well, I know you’re a bottom. I’m a bottom, when it comes to sounds. I am tempted to try this out because before I used Sleep, I was using one called Deep Sleep and I remember we were on tour and I would sleep in the tour bus with it in my AirPods and there was one song that they had added to the playlist and it had a woman whispering like phrases. I wouldn’t like that. And it scared the living crap out of me. Yeah, yeah. You still managed to sleep like four hours more than anyone else. That’s true, that’s true. Oh yeah, yeah. Bus was parked, baking in the sun middle of the day. I’m kinda being like, where… Yeah, I mean, for all I know y’all never rode on the bus. He’s in there listening to a woman whispering in his ear. I mean, she woke me up, but like, yeah. Put me in like a coffin type scenario- Yeah, he could be a vampire. With the earbuds and I would be gone forever.
