Alliy ward: We eat dave's killer bread. Dart toasts his, and i like to put mine in the micro wave with a little pat of butter on it. Ssomnus is the roman god of sleep,. The brother of death. And this week, tepaf says ten out of ten would scream about sharks in my car again. So thank you also to the patrons at patrion dot com for donating as little as one shiny american quarter in episode to help fun the show.
Birds do it. Bees do it. Why the hell can't we do it? Called "The Sleep Whisperer," neurologist and sleep specialist Dr. W. Chris Winter joins Alie for a thrilling 2-parter about why we need sleep, the ideal amount of it, what sleep does to the brain, insomnia, sleep stages, ideal bedtime conditions, and even the historical lore around sleep paralysis. Next week, we'll answer listener questions about everything from sleeping pills to brain performance to insomnia cures to apnea to sleepwalking to parenthood and shift work. Think of it as a free seminar to fix your life. Maybe.
