    In Your Dreams
    May 24 2025

    What’s the last dream you remember having? Some of us dream every night. But we’re in too much of a hurry to remember our dreams or think about them the next day. Others of us are dream-deprived. What if we embrace our dreams — and our night selves — as a way to understand ourselves better, to connect to each other, even to lead a better life?

    Original Air Date: February 24, 2024

    Interviews In This Hour:
    The perils of a 'wake-centric' world — The lives we live inside our dreams — A dreaming mind, illustrated — Embracing your night self

    Guests:
    Rubin Naiman, Kelly Bulkeley, Roz Chast, Annabel Abbs-Streets

  • Beyond Death

    Beyond Death
    May 17 2025

    Most of us have no idea what will happen when we die. But some do — people who actually started the process of dying and then came back with remarkable stories — like meeting dead relatives. Science is not only extending the lives of patients who’ve been declared clinically dead; it’s also beginning to tell us what happens in near-death experiences.

    Original Air Date: September 21, 2024

    Interviews In This Hour:
    Sebastian Junger reckons with the possibility of an afterlife — How science is revolutionizing our ideas about life and death

    Guests:
    Sebastian Junger, Sam Parnia
