In this deeply personal minisode, Scoots speaks directly to you—especially if you’re a superlistener, someone who falls asleep fast, listens all night, or has been with the show for years.
He shares what’s been going on personally (recovering from surgery, preparing for a big move), and opens up about the emotional toll of asking for support to keep the podcast going. Despite some progress, the truth is clear:
Sleep With Me still needs about 1,000 more superlisteners to step up and support the show on Sleep With Me Plus.
But this minisode isn’t just about numbers—it’s about community, intention, and connection.
Scoots introduces a new way for everyone to participate:
Even if you’ve decided not to support the show, you’re invited to take part in a quiet ritual of connection—sending out care, hope, and kindness across the deep, dark night to others who are struggling to sleep, just like you once were.
So whether you’re here to help keep the show going or just to be held by it, this minisode is for you.
💜 Thank you for being a part of this sleepy, strange, supportive world.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
