Last official day of #MaxFunDrive! Thank you gifts are still available over the weekend but today is the big final push. THANK YOU to all who contributed to the show. We appreciate your generosity and your support. If you've been putting it off, join now and get prizes! maximumfun.org/join

Heartfelt thanks to everyone who's supporting the show. When @johnmoe.bsky.social is able to do the splits, he'll have his listeners to thank. For anyone who isn't in a position to support the show financially, but still wants to help, like or RT posts. We couldn't do this show without YOU.

Give today between 2 and 5pm central and one of @johnmoe.bsky.social 's dogs will be aware of your kindness.

Sleepyheads, we're just 25 new or upgrading members away from meeting our goal of 300 new or upgrading members supporting the show. If you'd like to put @johnmoe.bsky.social on a fast track to flexibility, just head to MaximumFun.org/join and select Sleeping with Celebrities. We thank you!

I know the world is a lot to take right now. But here's a conversation with a delightful man who is a dog lover and who has BEEN TO SPACE. It's designed to put you to sleep or at least relax you a bit. He talks about how he smuggled his dogs into NASA for this shot. maximumfun.org/episodes/sle...

Get this guy in the fuckin senate tomorrow.

It's here! Our episode with former astronaut and dog enthusiast Leland Melvin has arrived. He talks about how he got this wonderful shot as well as WHAT IT'S LIKE IN SPACE and how to build a camper. maximumfun.org/episodes/sle...

We're reaching for some goals! We already hit one! We need your help to reach more! Let's get @johnmoe.bsky.social flexible and then let's make some CROP ART! cc @maximumfun.org youtu.be/96wVqG2ekoo?...

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!

Free preview of our bonus content episode with teasers from the dreams of @thebloggess.bsky.social, @jasonkpargin.bsky.social, @blainecapatch.bsky.social, @joshgondelman.bsky.social, and @natecorddry.bsky.social

These are three excellent reasons to support @sleepwithcelebs.bsky.social, @depreshmode.bsky.social, and all your favorite shows on @maximumfun.org. Particularly the guilt assuaging.

We're bringing you new content EVERY WEEKDAY during the #MaxFunDrive and today's edition of Naps with Normies features @dannybaruela.bsky.social! Learn all about his job at @maximumfun.org and, if all goes according to plan, fall asleep while he's talking.

It's the #MaxFunDrive and that means TONS of bonus mini-sodes for you to enjoy. Today, we have TWO: First, a FREE preview of our bonus content episode, The Celebrity Parade of Dreams Supershow with top celebs sharing their weirdest and funniest dreams. maximumfun.org/episodes/sle...

It's now 1pm central. If you give to @depreshmode.bsky.social or @sleepwithcelebs.bsky.social at any level in the next three hours and tell me you did, I will reply with a video telling one of my household dogs about you and your kindness. Just visit maximumfun.org/join to get started.

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. maximumfun.org/episodes/sle... cc @maximumfun.org

It's the #MaxFunDrive and if you join @depreshmode.bsky.social or @sleepwithcelebs.bsky.social or upgrade or boost your membership BETWEEN 1 AND 4PM CT TODAY and let me know, I will reply to you with a video where I tell one or more of my dogs (like Ducky) about your generosity. maximumfun.org/join

I hope you give to @depreshmode.bsky.social and @sleepwithcelebs.bsky.social during #MaxFunDrive. Possibly to support great shows that help people and are made by independent artists. Or maybe you want to donate to get COOL GIFTS and that's okay too. Because they have those too. maximumfun.org/join/

Hello! I make my living by partnering w/ @maximumfun.org to make podcasts (@depreshmode.bsky.social and @sleepwithcelebs.bsky.social) that offer people a better life through understanding mental health, getting better sleep, and feeling less alone. I need your help to do this. maximumfun.org/join

When @johnmoe.bsky.social's kids were young, he would improvise semi-coherent bedtime stories while half-asleep. We're bringing you some of those during the #MaxFunDrive. Our newest is about an iguana that starts a band. maximumfun.org/episodes/sle...

A clip from our latest episode with @steveinskeep.bsky.social , star of Morning Edition, non-fiction books, and Indiana high school football, on the importance of calling the game straight. maximumfun.org/episodes/sle...

You're used to hearing @steveinskeep.bsky.social of @npr.org's Morning Edition in the morning but we have him ready for bedtime on our latest episode. Let Steve's dulcet public radio tones send you to sleep with tales of Lincoln, Indiana, and the Library of Congress. maximumfun.org/episodes/sle...

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.

I just interviewed Leland Melvin for @sleepwithcelebs.bsky.social. He’s the guy in this photo. It won’t surprise you that he’s one of the awesomest people I’ve ever met.

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. maximumfun.org/episodes/sle...

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. maximumfun.org/episodes/sle...

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. maximumfun.org/episodes/sle...

Our newest episode has @malloryomeara.bsky.social and @breagrant.bsky.social from the @maximumfun.org podcast Reading Glasses talking you to sleep about ORGANIZING BOOKSHELVES as well as their NEW podcast, Reading Smut, which premieres 2/14. maximumfun.org/episodes/sle...

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. maximumfun.org/episodes/sle...

Nice write-up in Podcast the Newsletter: podcastthenewsletter.substack.com/p/an-apology... "This conversation was a delight please do not fall asleep when listening to it."

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. maximumfun.org/episodes/sle...

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. maximumfun.org/episodes/sle...

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. maximumfun.org/episodes/sle...

Our latest episode features the very funny actor and comedian Jon Gabrus talking about breakfast sandwiches, including exactly how to order and what to order in a NYC bodega and what sandwich is best eaten in your mom's car. maximumfun.org/episodes/sle...

A little less than 2 years ago, we launched our show with a simple idea: have famous people talk at length about subjects that put people to sleep. Don't bring your A game, bring your Z game. We just posted our 100th episode: maximumfun.org/episodes/sle...

Can't sleep because you're too full of Christmas? Let @blainecapatch.bsky.social lull you to sleep with our new episode where he talks at great length about family restaurants. maximumfun.org/episodes/sle...

On our new episode, comedian @jennyyangtv.bsky.social walks us through a dazzling array of kitchen devices until you pass out dead asleep. It's the only podcast where you can get in depth conversation about egg cookers, as far as we know. maximumfun.org/episodes/sle...

Our guest @ophirae.bsky.social can pronounce all the Canadian town names @johnmoe.bsky.social throws at her, and defend Canada's national comfort food. Listen to the full ep here @maximumfun.org: bit.ly/4gyGcyB

New episode up with @ophirae.bsky.social where we talk about many things related to the great nation of Canada, including what makes Montreal bagels so very good. Get ready to be lulled to sleep..., eh. maximumfun.org/episodes/sle...

The most thoughtful position on the baseball diamond is catcher. That's where the very funny comedian Billy Wayne Davis played his college ball and he joins us to go into great detail on how to be an effective backstop. You'll become an effective sleeper. maximumfun.org/episodes/sle...

Why did @johnmoe.bsky.social rank @amytan.bsky.social as one of his top three funniest guests? This clip w/ a rare @gabemara.bsky.social cameo tells the story. Listen to the full episode here: bit.ly/3OsXlO1

Our guest this week is really actually mega-author Amy Tan! I know, we couldn't believe we got her either. She tells us all about her backyard birdfeeder empire but first came some tone-setting. maximumfun.org/episodes/sle...
