🎙 Who Is Your Schneider?

Show Notes for The Insomnia Project:

On today’s soothing and nostalgic episode of The Insomnia Project, Marco and Amanda kick things off by exploring the idea of being “house proud.” From there, the conversation takes a delightful detour into classic sitcom territory, beginning with the unforgettable Schneider from One Day at a Time.

As the discussion unfolds, your hosts try to pinpoint the “Schneider” equivalent in a range of beloved 80s and 90s sitcoms. Along the way, they deep dive into some of the era’s most iconic performers, including Tom Hanks (Bosom Buddies), Donna Dixon, Holland Taylor, and of course, the ever-charismatic Meshach Taylor (Designing Women).

The episode wraps with a cozy and contemplative question: Who is your Schneider?

Whether you’re a TV trivia buff or just in the mood for a relaxing walk down memory lane, this episode has your name on it.
