Every night, you die a little death. Your muscles paralyze, and your conscious mind dissolves. For 90-120 minutes, you enter a world where physics doesn't apply, where you can fly, or drown, or become someone else entirely, or your deceased great-grandmother speaks prophecy...in tongues...on another planet!

Welcome to the world of dreams. We can map every brain wave, track every REM cycle, identify the neurochemicals--but we cannot answer the question that has haunted humans since we first woke startled in caves: What are dreams for?

Join me on this three-part journey into the mystery and science of dreams. While this subject could be a fifty-part series, I'll cover the major points of how, and delve deeper into the questions that scientific research cannot explain, in shortened form.

In our tale, "The Case of the Dream Traveler," Dr. Joel Stanton enters an unexpected realm when he learns that one of his students has experienced a precognitive dream.

Thanks for joining me on this journey. The gateway is open... let's walk through it together.
