Welcome to The Insomnia Project, the sleep podcast where nothing happens… so you can listen and sleep. Join hosts Marco Timpano and Amanda Barker for a calm, meandering conversation about demitasse cups, Bond villains, and the surprisingly villainous task of buying wedding china. Settle in, relax, and let the conversation wander wherever it happens to go.
This episode starts with two unlikely companions: tiny coffee cups and villains. Amanda reveals her ambition to be a Bond villain, while Marco sets the record straight on what exactly a demitasse is. From there, the conversation drifts into the world of wedding china, and why picking out plates and saucers might be the most villainous chore of all.
“I know why you have a saucer under your demitasse.”
