Hello, Depressmode listeners, it's John Moe. We're dropping a special episode here for you today

of a new show for you to discover. It's a show that I host, but it is not Depressmode. It's a brand

new program called Sleeping with Celebrities from Maximum Fun, and you're about to listen to the

premiere episode. Sleeping with celebrities is a show, but it's also a tool.

It's audio designed to make you fall asleep.

You play it on your phone or smart speaker next to the bed or you play it on wraparound headphones.

It's interviews conducted in my most soothing voice with celebrities who've been asked to pick a topic that they can go on

and on about, but that most people won't find all that fascinating. No shocking revelations, no

epiphanies, just talk that's interesting enough to get your mind off your swirling anxiety thoughts,

but not interesting enough to actually keep you awake.

Sleeping with celebrities is also inevitably a comedy show.

You get guests like Andy Daly, Maria Bamford, Scott Thompson from Kids in the Hall.

You get these people together and laughs will happen. They just will.

And you're welcome to stay up and enjoy those laughs if you prefer.

You might remember sleeping with celebrities as a special we did as bonus content during last year's Max Fun Drive.

If you donated, you got access to that four-hour special of various delightful guests talking about mundane things. We had so much fun making it. People had so much fun participating in it that it ended up becoming a regular show,

all on its own. Our first episode, the one you're about to hear, features comedian and actor Andy Daly,

and his thoughts on his yard and olives and whether you can kill someone with a lawn

trimmer. Be sure to subscribe to sleeping with celebrities. Getting a good night's sleep is a wonderful

thing to do for your mental health and so is having a few laughs. Enjoy and I'm glad you're here.

Tettle down now and get comfy.

You're about to sleep.
