The Creature from Cleveland Depths by Fritz Leiber, Science Fiction, Fantasy, Short Stories
Leiber sets the tale in a future when missiles are on the prowl, and most people live underground. George Gusterson is a writer with crazy ideas -- one being, he still lives on the surface.

George's mere whim inspires an actual gadget called the Tickler, just a wire recorder and clock at first, but then . . . it whispers constantly through an earphone. It instills positive thinking.
