The hosts first tackle the state of our own sleep habits and what scientists believe is the reason for sleep. Afterwards, Mr. Miller discusses the four main behaviors that shape our sleep and my students attempt to tinker with one or another to judge their own sleep. The two old codgers round things out with a discussion of the idea of \"catching up\" on sleep. Is it real or even possible? They discuss the medical answer and their own anecdotal observations. It is an interesting conversation that is well worth a listen - even a comment or two on your favorite podcast platform. ","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/uHbYazK0RPs8LHQfev9GSXqOl2Q2mtsll-QgdY0PfhA/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzE4MTMyLzE2MTY3/Njc3NjQtYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
