INTRO
Annoying Outside Noises
This intro is gonna just barely make sense
So many mishandled and mislabeled metaphors
Singing Ballads
Yacht Rock
I’d probably sing yacht power ballads
Love Song to a Metaphor
Candles
Sleep Grease
The Power of Tition
Welcome to the Sleep Pros podcast
I’m more about sleep prose, personally
I’m a mishandler
Retrospective on 500 – 599
Barely engaging
I also like to say Osh Kosh B’Gosh
I’ve probably said, “Oh boy” a hundred thousand times on this podcast
Poetry about loving metaphors
Send my people your love songs about metaphors
Would a love song to metaphors contain metaphors? Would that be weird?
Do metaphors get jealous?
Are metaphors sentient?
My brain is palming its forehead and packing its suitcase in exhaustion with my questions
The leather suitcase in scooter’s brain
A twin bed for Scooter’s brain
Checking in with similes
I’ll hold hands with metaphors and similes
Who would we choose to sing a song to you?
Michael McDonald
Neil Sedaka
Zayn
Bette Midler doesn’t really sing power ballads
Annie Lennox
Is “Sweet Dreams are Made of This” about metaphors?
This song is gonna just be for Metaphor
Scooter can definitely afford Lennie Annex
A power ballad to metaphors by Lennie Annex
Is Lennie Annex an alter ego for Annie Lennox?
I’m holding a metaphor that looks like a sloth in my arms
STORY
A sleepy celebration
We haven’t done this since episode 500
Thank you, listeners, for taking the leap of faith
And thank you for this opportunity
499 was Superdull
501, a very personal episode
503 was Star Trek: TNG
A tribute to My Brother, My Brother, and Me
Talking about fushigi balls
Superdull was about bored superheros
A really good podcast can go deep instead of wide
Another Carole King episode
John De Lancie Love
Under the Orlando Eye
A fictionalized version of Lady Gaga’s Superbowl Halftime Performance
Goonies Week
An on-location from Sea Life Orlando
I didn’t remember Back to the Future at all

Imaginary walking tour of the La Brea Tar Pits
The first All Intro episode
Real Time Salad
Big Farm in the Sky Private Eye – I loved making this
MFM podcast
What’s “Day Dream to Believin’ “?
A sleepy bedtime big farm mystery
What was the next phase of TNG?
Bernie the Butterfly talked about 5 Seconds of Summer swag
551 – Imaginary Friend, wow
The Fearless Flyer
We only do these on Patreon now
553 – The Dog that Chased the Moon
Everything at this time was over an hour
1 hour is the sweet spot
Different big farms for the different eras of Apple products
This TNG ep makes me think of Carole King
The intro for the Glee Dusters is a very popular intro
Kicking off S7 of GoT
My life with HBO
Archetypal, Child-Like Ideas
Let’s keep the bus content limited for a Sleep Podcast
Are Booberry and Frankenberry related?
Lake Ontario Love
The Return of Agatha and After the Glass Slipper

Really can’t remember PeeWee’s Big Adventure
Walking around Disneyland with Ray
A crossover with Grownups Read Things They Wrote as a Kid
