Episode notes
Rob Harvilla is the host of the hit podcast 60 Songs That Explain the 90s and author of a book of the exact same name. But before he was regaling his listeners with his thoughts on music of that era, Rob was living in that era and making music of his own. Or rather, making music of somebody else’s. You see, Sleepyheads, Mr. Harvilla was an open mic musical performer in his college days, in the 90’s, in Ohio. And he’s going to take you on a music-free tour of the thinking behind his performances back then. Learn the songs that were right in his vocal range as well as the ones well beyond his range that he attempted to sing. Learn how the audience could have been spared this entire phase of his life if he had just found a girl to go to the movies with him to see The Big Lebowski.
Hey Sleepy Heads, is there anyone whose voice you’d like to drift off to, or do you have suggestions on things we could do to aid your slumber?

About the show
Getting to sleep can be difficult sometimes. Now you can achieve that urgently needed rest by taking advantage of our most precious natural resource: celebrities. Each week on the slyly humorous and reassuring Sleeping With Celebrities, host John Moe talks with a different guest from the world of entertainment about something they know a lot about. The conversation is guaranteed to be just interesting enough to draw your attention away from your own swirling anxieties but never interesting enough to keep you awake. No startling revelations, no dramatic screaming confrontations, but plenty of low-key dialogue, intricately laced deadpan comedy, and a ticket to dreamland.
