Drifting Off With Joe Pera - Ep. 1: Soup - Max Drift Edition

8 Hr Max Drift Editions of all other episodes are available to supporters on patreon: / driftingoffwithjoepera
If you wanted a version long enough to last a full night’s sleep, here it is. Ryan wrote an extended score plus a lot more soup-making. Sorry, but there’s no additional discourse on soup beyond the original ep in here though. There’s always more to say about soup but I had to start working on the next one.
Hope you like the full soup-making audio experience™ and beautiful music from Ryan Dann.

These extended versions pick up where each episode left off with additional soundscapes, music, and whatever else might help you drift off even further. It could be unused music, extended scenes from the show, completely unused sound ideas, maybe scraps of interview we couldn't figure out where to use. For now, we're keeping the parameters pretty wide open as we learn what works, what doesn't, and have a little fun with it.
-Ryan
Drifting Off With Joe Pera is an comedy sleep podcast from comedian Joe Pera and composer Ryan Dann. With low-key jokes, immersive soundscapes, and relaxing phone conversations, Joe’s narration and Ryan’s sound design will help you unwind and perhaps even fall asleep.

Max Drift Edition might be the coolest title ever given to a sleep aid.

[@samuelcarstens6152]

No might be about it

[@Lucas_Jeffrey]

I love this so very much. Too bad the other episodes didn't get the 'Max Drift' treatment ! :(( Maybe they will now that the special is done and posted.

I don't have much trouble getting to sleep anymore, but sometimes I just feel a bit lonely. This man is just as comforting as the soup he talks about.

[@bitches619]

You’re right about the loneliness but Joe makes it a bit better with a good nights sleep

[@Pashedkhonsu]

When I first got my heated blanket, I felt like a little quesadilla snoozin'. Now with soup playing, I feel like a translucent celery slice in a steamy aromatic sauna. Def gonna sleep tonight.

this guy’s comedy is full of surprises. he leads us on about the healing powers of soup and then dumps a hilarious tale of someone making soup that nearly kills themselves. love you Joe

[@Invading-Specious]

comedy? Explane, what is so funny?

[@kibblesnbits3174]

This is definitely a niche genre of comedy or even podcasting, almost like ASMR. I am appreciative of it for sure.

[@stretchwheel9958]

When I die the first question I have for God Is "how many times have I listened to Joe pera talk about soup" can't sleep without this

[@Pony_Ghost]

I’ve only just recently discovered Joe, and I’ve been here every night since. I love reading the comments and feeling like we’re all here together in this special corner of the internet. I fall asleep feeling like I’m not so alone after all. Good night everyone 😴🫶🏽

[@malachyte_art]

Good night, special corner friend. I hope you’re still sleeping well even to this day

[@Jora_Bora12]

Been failing in math and having a really hard time in general, got to bed at 12 woke up at 3 a.m just to try and make at least the slightest amount of hw that's due today done before my class at 7, my class ends at 9 so I'll have about 3 hours to do smth and try not to have an anxiety attack before my tutoring partner comes over. I found this video after my brother showed me Joe Pera talks, he's such a chill guy to just loves talking about anything and everything in the nicest ways, the music reminds me of playing minecraft as it rains, I grew up on minecraft so thus was really really nice to start me hw off with, for anyone reading this or listening to this video please take care of yourself the best way you can, you matter so much and even when things get hard don't give up or else Joe will miss you and will have one less friend to talk to. Goodnight/Good morning KZbin, I love you all

[@Jora_Bora12]

Please ignore the typos, it's late rn and I also have dyslexia, in general sometimes I will think I'm typing correctly until I read back through 😓

[@Wyattnof]

@@Jora_Bora12 i liked reading what u typed out- i can actually relate to it a lot. school kind of sucks in a way that its really important so that you want to succeed in it, but in the way that its structured: school can very easily become overwhelming, causing you to become less motivated. stay resilient, friend. there are better things to life than school.

[@doomer4215]

Hey man, I've been feeling really sad and unhappy with myself, I've been struggling with all the hw and things I need to do for my Uni assignments, I really needed this comment, I really needed to hear that I matter. Thanks so much, I apreciate it. I hope you're doing better now, love you too and everyone else reading this

[@jacobvertiz1108]

This was a very comforting comment. I love you too.

I have COVID right now, can't really sleep or watch TV. Listening to this has been a perfect middle ground. Thank you Joe.

[@zacdonald99]

I met the distinguished Joe “Tomato” Pera & his beautiful dog Gus last year in Madison following one of his stand-up routines; Joe, I saw your show during the worst couple of months I’ve ever had in my life and it helped me more than you could understand. I had gone months without a reason to laugh and you gave me so many. You busted my chops that night and I’ll never forget it. Thank you for the tomato seeds & for signing my Bathroom book “to Randy Butterknubs,” your content brings a smile to my face whenever I see it. whenever I feel hopeless I sometimes think of you standing in front of the lit-up Milwaukee Domes in your space-jacket & for some reason that lets me keep on going. Much love from Milwaukee, Joe. Thank you & Ryan for such a wonderful podcast, I truly had a fantastic sleep last night. I hope you make a hundred more but no pressure

[@snoopers8373]

How are you? I hope you are well, genuinely. Take care out there 🤍

[@PotatoNirvana]

Joe Pera and Ryan Dann make some amazing art together. 8 hours of soft piano and the ambient sounds is just what my insomnia ordered. At this point, they are experts on helping people fall asleep and I couldn't be more grateful.
