C
Messed with it.
B
Can't get enough of it.
D
Look at us. The pillow fort is getting cozy.
C
Jacquis. I've been asking Sophia. I feel like we've had a good few eps these lately, but what are you pop culturing about these days? Honestly?
D
That's. That's a. That's a great question. You know, I just started pop culturing to shrinking. Do you guys watch shrinking?
C
Oh, sure. Yeah.
D
I just started it. I enjoy it.
B
It's really cute.
D
It's cute. It's, you know, it's about how messy life is, and life is messy. Heard life is messy. That's what I'm pop culture into.
B
My mom loves that show. We watched it together last year when I was recovering from surgery and. But I also really liked it. I want to watch the new season because it just came out.
C
I think I should see if my mom likes it. I'm trying to get her mind opened.
B
She. I'm sure would. It's a good show for moms, in my opinion.
D
It's a good show for moms. You get Harrison Ford.
C
My mom only watches True Crime. I have to open her mind, though. It's not good for her brain. So. So we're gonna work on that. Great. I'll put it on the list.
B
I just read a true crime book.
C
Oh, God.
B
Called the Art Thief.
C
Okay.
B
Now, I actually have talked about this on the show already, but I'll say really quickly. It's about one of the most prolific art thieves in the world and. Or maybe the only one. The most prolific is what I mean. But it's really interesting and your mom should read it because it's true crime, but it's not, like, violent, obviously.
C
Okay.
D
I have a. I have a true crime recommendation for your mom.
C
Please.
D
It's a movie. There's three of them. It's called the Godfather.
C
Okay. Wow. Yeah. That's a little indie one.
D
It's a little indie one? Yeah. Crime Family. It's about a crime family and they do nothing but tell the truth. That's true. And it's true crime, and it Just follows the journey. And by the time you get to the end of it, my gosh, your mom's gonna be like, who?
C
It's animated.
D
Half of it is.
C
Okay, guys. Okay.
D
All the flashbacks are anime.
C
Yeah, Yeah, I saw it on no Budge. No Budge's homepage Had that. So I think I'll check that one out.
B
Yeah, I watched it on Quibi.
C
Yeah, CSO and Quibi had that.
D
I love it. CISO had it.
B
Yeah.
D
Well, year two, us three. You know what week this is? Besides a week of beautiful loveliness, this is actually sleep week.
C
It's huge for us.
D
It's such a huge week for us. It's a week we set aside to remind everyone the important connection between sleep and your well being. So in honor of that, I thought we could do a little sleep related trivia. Oh, my God, I love a trivia night.
C
I really do.
D
All right, seems like we're about to do it. Sophia doesn't.
C
What's up, Sophia?
D
Sophia doesn't.
B
I think. I just think I'm bad at it. But I don't dislike trivia night. You know what? I have a lot to bring to it. It might not be vaxxed and it might not be the truth, but I have an amazing spirit. And, yeah, some fun quips to bring to the table.
D
There you go. All right, first, what does REM stand for? R E M. Buzz.
C
Buzz.
B
Rapid Eye movement.
D
Sophia was the first one. And there's Rapid eye movement.
C
That's what I was gonna say.
B
That's what kblc.
C
Okay, great.
D
That is the correct answer.
B
I ate that.
D
Sophia, you said you're not good at trivia.
B
Imagine if you went to a bar and the trivia question was, what does REM stand for? Then I would be elated. Like, it's always like, the most obscure questions in the world that I'm like, how could I possibly know that? How would I ever know that?
D
Like, who was the Secretary of defense in 1991?
B
Literally? And I'm like, I don't even know who the president was in 1981, mind you. Let's start there.
D
Let's start there. The score, Sophia 1 Kp. Not on the board yet.
B
Feels good to be a winner.
D
Next question. According to the 2026 Hatch Sleep Report, what time in the morning do people set their alarm the Most on average?
C
Buzz.
D
KP.
C
7.
D
7. You know, this is an interesting answer because, like, for those of us who don't have real jobs.
B
Yep. Right?
D
That is so early.
C
It seems incomprehensible. I know I know.
D
That is so early.
B
Yeah, but I was going to say seven as well. And you're going to tell me it's six and that's going to make.
C
I thought maybe eight. I was going to say eight.
D
I was going to say 8:45, 9:00am and no, that's way too late. It's definitely like 6:30 KP. That is incorrect. The answer is 6:30am and you heard.
B
You got. Y' all just heard me say that, huh?
D
You did. You just said watches in the 6am Let me talk to those people real quick. Quit. Quit your jobs.
B
Quit your job.
D
Quit your job, girl.
B
Quit your job.
D
Quit your job. If we all stop working, then nobody's working.
C
They can't send us all to detention.
B
They can't.
D
You should be up. You don't have to wake up that early. That's so early.
C
6:30 is really bad. I know. I truly was gonna say 8 because that to me is my most set alarm. And it's still too early, but still early. When I was a teacher, mine was 5:15am because you had to get to the school at 6:30 and you had to like prepare your classroom.
D
You gotta straighten the desks.
B
That is really tough.
D
We gotta sweep. Well, look, keeping on track with that, which U. S. State is home to the earliest risers.
C
Oh, Buzz.
D
K.P.
C
all right, I'm gonna throw it. But I do think Sophia should get
D
a. Yeah, I will give Sophia a try.
B
I'll try.
C
I'm gonna say Alaska. And I know it sounds crazy, but I'm like, there's a lot of fishing there. There's a lot of like, the sun doesn't act right over there. So I'm gonna give it to Alaska just as a big old chance.
B
Okay.
D
Okay. Alaska. KP is on the hook for Alaska. What you got? Sophia.
B
I don't know why my natural impulse was to say Montana.
C
Oh, that's really good.
B
But I'm also trying to think of. Yeah, like, where they're like farmers and ranchers. I feel like that's the places that you have to get up the earliest is like you're really working with. Working with what God gave you, AKA the sun.
C
Yes.
B
So I'm going to say Montana. But it's hard because I'm like, there's not that many people who live there. But I guess maybe that doesn't matter. Maybe it's like percentage wise or something. But I'm curious to find out.
D
Now to make this more interesting, I would love to do Price is Right rules and whoever Guesses. The closest to the state is geographically. Is geographically closest.
C
I think I should choose something contiguous then. My goodness.
D
Well, here's the thing. Here's the thing. Because one of you may be right. One of you may be right.
B
Oh, my God.
D
But here is where. Here's where I fall. I don't know where these states are on the map.
B
Right.
D
So geography. So to me, both of y' all could be just as close. I don't know.
C
Doubt. Alaska. Who's all the way through Canada.
B
It's hard for me to imagine that KP is going to win that battle.
D
That's okay. It might be. It might be.
C
But who knows?
D
So the answer is Tennessee. Okay, Tennessee. Tennessee is the answer. So by default, Sophia wins because.
C
Absolutely.
D
Sophia is on the actual mainland on the map. Yeah, it's on the mainland.
C
Tennessee. Well, I assume, Sophia, your thinking was right.
B
Farm.
C
Farm vibed.
D
You know, before, when I saw this question, before I saw the answer, I honestly thought it was going to be New York. Because of Wall Street. Because of like, the commutes. Because of, like, people have been on the train and get to like, you know, Times Square or wherever they work and stuff like that. So I thought, you know, because that's where the financial world starts in the US every morning, that that would be the answer. So that surprised me.
B
But it's. It's the people who are waking up with the roosters. Huh?
C
Yeah.
B
Yeah.
C
Yep.
D
See, that's why I can't handle roosters on my. I can't handle roosters. I'd be like, hey, man, shut up.
C
They have some wandering around Eastside LA often. There's just some in.
D
Some in Echo parking about maybe squawking. They be squawking. Birds are crazy, man.
B
Birds are crazy.
D
They too loud. I'm scared of peacocks. I know people think they're beautiful.
C
They're really nasty.
D
Kpop and Sophia, both of you imagine you were walking behind me and you're just like, oh, a normal person, a regular old man.
C
I would always think that.
D
Yeah, absolutely. That's what people say about me. And then all of a sudden, my ass just flares out 14ft. That would terrify you.
C
That would be really scary to me.
B
It would be scary, yeah, if it
D
was beautiful, I don't know. But Tennessee, I see y'.
B
All.
D
Go to sleep. Go to sleep.
C
Go to sleep.
B
Yeah, go to sleep. Because you have to wake up at 4:30 tomorrow morning.
D
Yeah. Next question. What does Hercalderkle mean? This is a multiple choice. Let me give you your options.
B
Okay.
D
Herkle derkle means A, to lay around in the bed long after it is time to get up. B, to wake up all twisted in your sheets or see to sleep sideways in the bed rather than long ways, which to most is the usual way.
C
Buzz, buzz.
D
Sophia was the first I heard.
B
My guess is B to be tangled up. I literally, once again, y', all, I'm going off instinct and instinct alone.
D
Instinct alone. Instinct alone. Well, Sophia, you are leading to 2 to 0 right now. So you're.
C
I thought.
D
Well, they didn't answer.
C
They kind of got that 6:30, though. But okay, I'm gonna. I have nothing to lose, so I'm gonna go see. To sleep sideways in the bed.
D
To sleep sideways in the bed. Like, you walk in and you see somebody sleeping sideways, you're like, oh, herkle durkel.
C
Okay, they're going, so herkle durkle right now. Yeah.
B
This sounds like something that my aunt would say, and I'd be like, girl, what the hell are you talking about?
D
I'm gonna be real with you. And this may be surprising, but it sounds sexy to me.
B
Herkle derkle.
D
To wake up all twisted in your sheets and like, you know, she gave me that.
C
Herkle derkle.
B
Oh, that sounds sexy.
D
Gave you that Herkle dirk.
B
She herkled my dirkle.
C
Sorry, who up herkling their dirt right now?
D
All right, so kp, you said C. I said C. Sophia, you said B. I said B. The correct answer is A. Yeah, it's A. To lay around in bed long after it is time to get up, which I do. So you can hurkle durkle at any point of the day. You can hurkle durkle in the morning after a nap.
C
I kind of hurkle durkled this morning.
D
Yeah, I did too. I hurkled Urgle, this morning I actually jumped out.
B
I had to go get coffee with a friend, so I. I had no herkling or dirkling this morning.
C
Damn.
B
Marry a herkler jerkle in my apartment this morning. It's okay.
C
She herkles on my dirkle till I wake up.
D
What a great name. I wonder what other fun names are involved with sleep. Like a herkle durkel. Shall we go to the next question?
B
Yes, please.
D
Name the hormone your body makes that regulates your sleep cycle.
C
Oh, Buzz.
D
K.P.
C
is it. Is it melatonin? Is that a hormone?
B
I think you might be right.
C
I'll try that.
D
You both are saying melatonin. The answer is melatonin.
B
Okay, KP first point on the board only up from here finally made it on there only.
C
Sophia's trash talking. It's about to get crazy. I know.
D
Sophia was like, I'm not good at trivia. And has proceeded to now become a trash talker.
C
They did that to lower their threat.
B
Look at me now. Yeah. I plead you.
D
Here's an interesting one for you. Okay, you both can answer, but whoever buzzes in first is on the hook. What is the most popular natural sleep sound buzz?
C
Kp. I mean, I'm gonna say white noise. I don't know if that's natural.
D
Interesting buzz, Sophia.
B
Well, I don't think white noise is natural.
C
You might be right, but I'm gonna stick with it. So I'm gonna try to think.
B
I. I mean, I. My inclination is to say rain.
C
Oh, that's such a good answer.
B
But I feel almost like it's gonna be, like, waves crashing or something, because that kind of sounds like a fan, and I feel like people love that sound. But you know what? I'll say rain.
C
I think you should do rain.
B
Yeah, I'm gonna go with rain. Thank you.
D
KP said white noise. Sophia, you said rain. The answer back up.
C
Crickets.
D
The answer is walking in crickets is be throwing it in light rain. Sophia. So you both were technically on the right track.
A
Yeah.
D
Okay, Sophia, you have four. Kp, you got one. How about this? This question right here is worth two points.
B
Okay.
D
Was one of the peak snooze days in the U.S. oh, there's a hint. There are two.
C
Buzz KP. The hint. There are two makes me think daylight savings time. Oh. Because there's a. There's two in the year, so I'm gonna say, wow, that's smart. Maybe it's just on the brain because it was recent, but I'm gonna say daylight savings time.
B
That's really smart.
D
And smart.
B
I was thinking out of the days of the week, and I was like, so it has to be Saturday and Sunday, I guess. But I think.
C
Wait, well, that's not Maybe.
B
I think you're right, though, because I feel like that's such an obvious question that I was like, Saturday and Sunday. That seems like such an obvious choice.
D
Those are both really good answers.
B
Maybe I'll lock in New Year's day.
C
Oh, I love that answer as my backup.
B
No, well, you.
D
You can't have a backup. You got to have just an answer.
B
No, I'm saying, like, if KP is wrong, my answer is New Year's Day,
D
so you don't want to go with Saturday and Sunday.
B
My two options are Sunday and New Year's Day, and we'll see which
C
this is. I mean, this is winners greed over here. They're winning anyway, and it's just gluttonous. It's greedy what they want.
B
I'm gonna go all Sundays and New Year's Day.
D
All right, the correct answer to this two point question is Monday and Tuesday.
B
Oh, my God. It was days of the week. And it's not even the weekend.
C
It was days of the week.
D
But you would have said Saturday and Sunday.
C
I wasn't gonna say anything because I really. I just don't have a leg to stand on in this game.
B
But people aren't even setting an alarm.
C
Sunday, you get to sleep way in, no snoozing needed.
B
I guess my definition of snooze was legit. Just like the days you sleep in the latest. But I'm now realizing it's like that
C
day requires an alarm hitting the snooze.
B
Totally. Okay, good to know.
C
This was a real masterclass in how our brains work.
B
Yeah, it's a bit of a Rorschach test.
D
One more question. The score is 4 to 1. This answer is worth 4 points. KP, you can win the game, or Sophia can resoundingly beat you.
B
Yeah, yeah. Okay, we'll see.
D
Let's. Let's wrap it all up. Let's bring it back to the pillow fort. What is the name of the most popular hatch alarm sound in the US Sophia made a smile like, they know this one.
B
No, that was like, I'll say buzz, buzz. I'm just gonna say whatever mine is.
D
Okay. All right.
B
And I think I know what mine
D
is, but, Sophia, you have the first option to answer.
B
Well, my answer is, of course, what I wake up to, which is. Yeah, Meditative flute.
C
I was really thinking it was the chimes. Okay, I'm gonna say this one pops up for me a lot, which makes me think maybe it's what's up? Or maybe it's just that I use it, but. Blue light morning.
D
Blue light morning is really good.
C
But I was gonna say the chimes. Okay, So I don't know. I'm going to say blue light morning.
D
All right, the answer is meditative flute this. So this girl is on fire. That's me winning the resounding win.
C
I got crushed.
B
You got crushed, kp, I mop the floor with you.
C
It was really. I mean, people hate to see a unique thinker. I know I'm sagging where others zig.
B
I'm saying white noise. Yeah.
C
I'm saying daylight savings.
B
I'm the only one brave enough to be saying daylight saving KP sleep.
D
You don't know her.
B
No.
C
Yeah.
B
Damn.
C
You would be horrified to see how I live. That was really good.
D
That was really good. Good job. And that's the one you wake up to. It's the most used by a huge margin as well.
B
So that's amazing to know. I mean, I definitely was listening and I was like, that's completely appealing to my ear.
C
So it is really good.
D
Yeah.
B
Yeah.
C
Gentle, but I feel a little bit
B
like, okay, I'm not special,
C
but I.
B
I have a beautiful community around me. Meditative flute alarm users. Hive rise. I'm activating sleeper agents. And y' all know what to do. Literally. Sleeper agents. No pun intended.
C
Sleeper agents. Meditative flu. No. Herkle Durkling. Here we are up the second.
B
The first note of that meditative flute
D
plays and you're snoozing just a little more on Monday and Tuesday. I love it. I love it. Well, that was a delight.
C
That was really good.
B
That was an absolute joy.
D
We learned a lot. We learned a lot.
C
Yes, Yes, I really did.
B
Yeah.
C
I will be taking some of that. That intel in my dailies, and you
D
might hurkle durkle in the morning.
B
Yeah, A little Herkle Derkle never hurt nobody. But I'm feeling pretty worn out from all this new knowledge that was just dropped on me. So I think I've. I think I've got to turn in, you guys.
C
I do too. I really have to think about my loss, but I'm overall really happy for you. Thank you and good night, Jackie's. And good night, Sophia.
D
Well, good night to both of you.
B
Good night,
C
Sam.
