7 years ago I woke up at 2AM to a commotion outside. It was my neighbors home - on fire - and by the time I got outside to check what was going on, the fire jumped to my home. Had I not heard the noise, I would've probably died in my sleep.

Given that situation or any other possible emergency that may occur in the middle of the night, sleeping with earbuds playing old TV shows seems like a very bad idea...

Be careful.

Luckily my wife wakes up if a pin falls on the ground. Also, the volume for my earbuds is quite low, and I can still here the kids going to the bathroom at night.
