Hi there, folks. It's Joe Fisher, creator of Midnight Burger. This episode you are about to listen to

is part of the Apollo Creators Showcase 2022. Listen to all of the episodes of the showcase and support all of

the creators involved by going to www.apolopods.com slash Joe. I hope to see you on Apollo, and I hope you enjoy this special episode we created for you.

All through our last season on our subscriber feeds, we were doing something called interludes, which were short pieces that we would send out to subscribers in between the main episodes that were a fun way to

kind of fill out the story and get some backstory on people, have moments between characters

where they wouldn't normally fit into an episode, but they were nice moments. They were a lot of

fun to do and great to send out to our subscribers. And now here we are on hiatus.

We are hard at work on season three coming back in November and December. And we thought we would bring these interludes to the public feed now.

There are a lot of fun and we hope you like them. This set of interludes were calling idle moments,

just moments between characters that didn't quite fit into the main story,

but we found them to be kind of moving sometimes

and also just a lot of fun to do.

So we hope you like them.

This first one is called How They Sleep at Night.

Yeah. called How They Sleep at Night.

Hello? Oh, hey. How are you feeling? Pretty weird. These lamps aren't the same thing as the sun.

I know. But we'll have to make do for a while. I know. Also, if we show up somewhere and it's nighttime, or if we're not on a planet at all, you're probably going to have to spend some time under the lamps. You'll be okay. Leif and Eva did the map. Why did Ava have something on her face? It's a night mask, and that means we're quiet. She sleeps in her booth. I theoretically sleep in my booth. It requires much more silence. Sheld, we're kind of on a

learning curve here. We're all humans, so we know what to expect from each other.

Do you sleep?

Yes, I was sleeping just now.

I'm sure it's different from whatever you all do.

When I sleep, I develop another layer of my body.
