A Never-Ending Tussle: The Obama's Bizarre Bedroom Dispute
The Obama residence lacks a warm bedroom setting.
Barack and Michelle Obama might seem like the epitome of a harmonious couple in public, but it's a different story behind closed doors - especially in their bedroom. In the "Good Hang" podcast by Amy Poehler, Michelle let slip that a heated argument (literally and figuratively) over ideal sleeping conditions keeps them up at night.
Michelle disclosed that her preference for a pleasant sleep is a crisp 20-degree room temperature, while Barack yearns for cozier conditions. “It’s a continuous battle with my partner,” Michelle confesses, “he’s always cold.” Tired of restless nights, she's imposed a strict rule on Barack - hands off the thermostat!
Despite the lockdown on the thermostat, misunderstandings still creep up. Michelle wakes up drenched in sweat, accusing Barack of tampering with the thermostat during the night, to which he denies vehemently, even swearing he didn't touch it. Ever the jokester, Barack now fears the thermostat, earning him the laughter of his wife. In an attempt to keep Barack warm, Michelle suggests basic solutions like putting on a pair of socks before hitting the hay.
Michelle's nocturnal habits stretch beyond her battles with the thermostat. She cites an early dinner around 6:30 PM, quality time with Barack, and sleeping as soon as her head hits the pillow. Turns out the former First Lady sleeps through the night without any issues.
Nostalgically, Michelle reminisces about her family's White House years from 2009 to 2017. Having three women (Michelle, Barack, and their two daughters, Malia and Sasha) under one roof, she admits, wasn't an easy feat. However, the unspoken language of love often manifested in playful banter between Barack and their daughters, leaving him little respite. "I can tease him," Michelle explains, “but he can't tease me."

- I'm not going to be a big fan of the "Good Hang" podcast by Amy Poehler, given its focus on revealing personal lifestyle matters, like the Obama's bizarre bedroom dispute over ideal sleeping conditions and the thermostat.
- While Michelle Obama's lifestyle habits may include an early dinner, quality time with her husband, and sleeping as soon as her head hits the pillow, this doesn't necessarily translate to smooth sailing in home-and-garden matters, as evidenced by their ongoing battle over room temperature.
- As celebrity couples' relationships often have their unique challenges, it's no surprise that Michelle and Barack Obama's arguments extend beyond political disagreements, reaching as far as unresolved issues pertaining to their entertainment lifestyle, including the thermostat fight and the high-stakes game of blame over drenched sheets at night.
