So great to have @steveagee.bsky.social on the show this week to talk about Meatballs (1979), meatballs (in general), the wonders of summer camp, and the benefit of having a stunt double like Steve has on the hit show Peacemaker.

Here's a wonderful feeling: interviewing someone, especially someone whose work you really admire, and discovering that they're already a big fan of the show. This happened today with @steveagee.bsky.social from Peacemaker! That's our show on Wednesday.

"The Happiness Project" author @gretchenrubin.bsky.social goes to the Met EVERY SINGLE DAY. Except Wednesday. Join her for a relaxing stroll through the museum and learn the best place to nap there on our all-new episode. The docents won't mind.

New sleep-inducing episode with the amazing writer Hanif Abdurraqib about his huge collection of band t-shirts and apparel. He's got like 90 items but doesn't have his white whale: the Talking Heads jacket Tina Weymouth wore in Rome in 1980.

Did you know the Ralphs chain isn't named after a guy named Ralph? It's not Ralph's. It's Ralphs. Named after the Ralphs brothers.

Drift off to sleep listening to actress and philosopher Abigail Thorn describing her love of the sea and its inhabitants. This is truly a mesmerizing episode.

We welcome @theabigailthorn.bsky.social (Philosophy Tube, House of the Dragon, The Acolyte) to our show this week for a soothing, sleepytime-inducing discussion of scuba diving. She made friends with an octopus. maximumfun.org/episodes/sle...

Very exciting news and you may lose sleep over this. Sorry. Tomorrow, our episode features Leland Melvin, astronaut, former NFL player, and subject of this ICONIC picture with his dogs, Jake and Scout. That's tomorrow! Tune in and pass out smiling!

We're posting some special free improvised semi-asleep BEDTIME STORIES during the drive.
Today's story was inspired by how in @johnmoe.bsky.social's house, the dogs are allowed up on the couch. Even the foster dogs.

Taped a great interview with @steveinskeep.bsky.social from @npr.org 's Morning Edition today for future episode. Talked about Lincoln, Indiana, football game calling, the Library of Congress, and quite a lot more. Fun to hear Steve talk at great length and not about new alarming information.

This week, we bring you the very funny and charming Samantha Irby for a soothing exploration of Walgreen's purchases. That's it, we just idly discuss stuff you buy at Walgreen's while you have several laughs and drift off to sleep.

Should you scorn and mock Cabbage Patch Kids? No, you should listen to CBK enthusiast and comedian Mike O'Connell tell you all about his collection of the, well, you're not supposed to call them dolls. You will soon be in an adorable sleep.

Anna Sale @annasale.bsky.social is the host of Death, Sex, & Money, talking about difficult topics. But on our show she talks about summer camp, which is much easier and more pleasant and should put you right to sleep.

WE ARE COVERING THE SUPER BOWL IN OUR OWN WAY with Chris Kluwe @chriswarcraft.bsky.social, iconic ex-NFL punter, who soothingly walks you through how to punt a football. It's a much more intricate process than you'd think and you won't stay awake til the end.

Today's episode features the wonderful @jamieloftus.bsky.social who discusses the politics and economics of NeoPets until you fall asleep. It's okay if you do fall asleep, that's the point of our show.

We know how to get you to sleep. We get Langston Kerman (from English Teacher, Insecure, The Boys) to explain some really complicated rules from very intricate board games. It's not the exciting world of actual game play, it's just the rules. You'll sleep.

Today's episode features @jonathanames.bsky.social talking about the joys and perils of Russian bathhouses. Let the steam and bonhomie take you to sleep.
When you awake, read Jonathan's brand new novel Karma Doll.
