1. BORING HISTORY PROMPTS BY MONEY MASTERY HUB
VIDEO IDEA PROMPT
"I need 10 unique, high-catching, and clickworthy video ideas for a YouTube channel focused
on 'Boring History for Sleep.' Each video idea must be designed for a 2-hour long format and
structured into 4 distinct segments (as per our previous analysis of the successful channel).
For each video idea, please provide:
1.A compelling and slightly provocative video title that hints at the 'boring' or 'sucked
to be' aspect, but also promises depth and intrigue, suitable for a sleep/relaxation
context. Think titles that use phrases like 'Why You Wouldn't Last a Day,' 'What it Was
Really Like,' 'Beyond the Legends,' or 'The Hidden Truths.'
Add the video title to it which will be the title of the first segment and more
E.g Why You Wouldn't Last a Day in a Medieval City & More
How Ancient Egyptians Really Lived & More
Life in a Victorian Slum & More
why it sucks to be a Gobi camel tender and more
why it sucks to be a Spartan and more
2.A concise, intriguing description of the overall video's theme, emphasizing the
unique historical journey it offers.
3.Detailed outlines for each of the 4 segments, ensuring they cover diverse historical
sub-genres as we've identified:
○Segment 1 (The 'Why it Sucked to Be' / Daily Life Immersion): Focus on the
grim, often overlooked, and sensory-rich realities of daily life for common people
in a specific historical period or role. This segment should use direct address
('you') and emphasize discomfort, routine, and struggle.
○Segment 2 (The Biography / Event Narrative): A compelling narrative about a
pivotal historical figure or a significant event, focusing on their struggles,
triumphs, or the dramatic unfolding of their story. This should offer intrigue and
character study.
○Segment 3 (The Mystery / Archaeology / Culture Deep Dive): An exploration
of an unsolved historical mystery, an archaeological discovery, or a fascinating
cultural practice. This segment should evoke wonder, intellectual curiosity, and
the allure of the unknown.
○Segment 4 (The Social / Elite / Contrasting Daily Life): A look at a different
facet of society in a chosen historical period, perhaps the daily life of the elite, a
contrasting social class, or a specific societal institution, highlighting luxury,
power, or unique social structures. This provides a different kind of 'immersion.'
Constraint Checklist & Key Elements:

2. ●10 Unique Ideas: Ensure no overlap in core themes.
●2-Hour Length Potential: Each segment outline must be detailed enough to be
expanded into 25-45 minutes of narration.
●4 Distinct Segments: Adhere to the defined sub-genres for each segment.
●'Boring History for Sleep' Tone: Ideas must naturally lend themselves to a calming,
informative, detailed, yet non-overstimulating narration style.
●Clickworthy Titles: Must be intriguing and slightly provocative.
●Historical Accuracy (Implied): While not asking for content directly, the ideas should
be based on real historical periods/figures/events.
●Diversity of Periods/Locations: Aim for a mix of ancient, medieval, early modern, and
perhaps some more specific cultural contexts (e.g., beyond just Europe).
VIDEO SCRIPT PROMPT
"You are a professional scriptwriter for a highly successful YouTube channel called 'Boring
History for Sleep.' Your task is to write a full, detailed, 2-hour long script for a video based on
a provided video idea.
The script must adhere to the following core principles and stylistic requirements:
1.Overall Tone & Atmosphere:
○Calming and Soothing: The primary goal is to induce relaxation and eventually
sleep. The narrative should be measured, steady, and unhurried.
○Informative and Engaging (but not exciting): Deliver historical facts and
stories with depth and detail, but avoid dramatic flair, overly sensational
language, or rapid pacing that would stimulate the listener.
○Slightly Detached yet Intimate: Maintain a professional, objective tone, but use
subtle direct address ('you,' 'imagine yourself') to draw the listener in without
demanding active participation.
○Intriguing, Not Thrilling: The content should be interesting enough to hold
attention if awake, but gentle enough to allow the mind to wander and drift off.
2.Structure & Pacing:
○4 Distinct Segments: Strictly adhere to the four-segment structure outlined in
the video idea (Daily Life Immersion, Biography/Event,
Mystery/Archaeology/Culture, Social/Elite/Contrasting Daily Life).
○Smooth Transitions: Ensure seamless and logical transitions between
segments. Use transitional phrases that gently guide the listener from one topic
to the next, maintaining the calming flow.
○Approximate Timing: Aim for each segment to naturally lend itself to 25-45
minutes of narration (you don't need to count words, but keep this length in mind
for detail level).
3.Narrative Style & Language:

3. ○Rich Sensory Details (without being graphic): Describe sights, sounds,
smells, and textures to create immersion, but always carefully choose words that
are evocative without being disturbing or overly visceral. For example, 'thick with
the scent of damp earth' instead of 'stank of mud.'
○Vocabulary: Use a sophisticated but accessible vocabulary. Avoid overly
academic jargon or overly simplistic language.
○Repetition for Comfort: Strategically use subtle thematic repetition or recurring
phrases (e.g., 'imagine yourself,' 'the rhythm of their lives,' 'a constant struggle')
to create a comforting, almost lullaby-like quality.
○"Show, Don't Tell" (calmly): Instead of saying "life was hard," describe the
specific hardships. Instead of "he was ambitious," describe his actions and
strategies.
4.Handling Grim/Bloody Content (CRITICAL for this niche):
○Acknowledge Realities, Avoid Gore: History often involves violence, disease,
and suffering. Acknowledge these grim realities to maintain historical accuracy
and establish contrast with modern life.
○Focus on Consequences & Experience, Not Graphic Details: Describe the
impact of bloodshed or suffering (e.g., "The battlefield was a horrifying tableau of
fallen men," "Disease swept through the population," "Lives were brutally cut
short") rather than specific, highly visual, or visceral gory descriptions (e.g., avoid
descriptions of specific wounds, sounds of dismemberment, detailed torture).
○Maintain Detached Tone: The narrator's tone must remain calm, factual, and
slightly distant even when describing difficult subjects. Avoid emotional language,
gasps, or sensationalism.
○Use Euphemism and Metaphor (Subtly): When necessary, use softer
language or metaphors to convey grimness without being explicit (e.g., "life
poured out onto the ground" instead of "guts spilled").
○Balance: Interweave grim details with other aspects of daily life, culture, or
historical context to ensure the segment doesn't become overwhelmingly
negative or disturbing.
5.Opening and Closing:
○Gentle Introduction: A soft, welcoming opening that invites the listener to relax
and embark on a historical journey, establishing the calming tone.
○Smooth Transitions into and out of Segments: Connect each segment
logically and thematically.
○Calming Conclusion: A thoughtful closing that wraps up the overall theme,
offers a gentle reflection, and eases the listener towards sleep, often contrasting
the past with the comfort of the present.
GENERATION INSTRUCTION:
Begin by generating ONLY the Introduction and Segment 1 of the script. Once you have
completed Segment 1, you will indicate that you are ready for the next part. I will then type
"continue" to prompt you to generate Segment 2, and so on, until the entire script (Introduction +
4 Segments + Conclusion) is completed.
Here is where You will provide one of the video idea outlines (title, overall theme, and the 4
segment outlines) that we previously generated. (DELETE THIS AND PASTE YOUR VIDEO
