We get into vivid dreams, recurring nightmares, melatonin adventures, alarm strategies, and the weird things our brains decide to do while we're unconscious.

Expect hot takes, sleep debates, bedtime confessions, and a full breakdown of why everyone thinks they've figured out sleep despite being exhausted all the time.

SPEAKER_01 2:46

Subscribe to the pod. Fuck his job.

SPEAKER_00 2:48

Wow. Well, let's get into it.

SPEAKER_01 2:50

All right.

SPEAKER_00 2:50

First topic. What's the ideal amount of sleep for you?

SPEAKER_01 2:55

I think I've come to realize, I don't know. But I think if I'm gonna count, probably around seven hours.

SPEAKER_00 3:02

Uh seven hours?

SPEAKER_01 3:04

Probably around seven hours.

SPEAKER_00 3:05

I think over seven point eight hours, they say, is too much.

SPEAKER_01 3:09

Seven to eight, you mean?

SPEAKER_00 3:10

No, seven point eight. Over that.

SPEAKER_01 3:12

Oh, not even a full eight.

SPEAKER_00 3:15

No.

SPEAKER_01 3:15

Oh, that's interesting. It's too much.

SPEAKER_00 3:17

Eight's too much. What age you do they say?

SPEAKER_01 3:20

I could kind of see that. If you take one of those like days off where you're like, no alarms, I'm gonna sleep in, and then you actually sleep for like older. You wake up older. You wake up feeling like your bones hurt.

SPEAKER_00 3:30

Or like it gives me osteoporosis.

SPEAKER_01 3:32

Yeah. What's your ideal sleep?

SPEAKER_00 3:34

I think seven. Seven?

SPEAKER_01 3:36

Seven?

SPEAKER_00 3:36

Strong seven?

SPEAKER_01 3:37

Well, seven.

SPEAKER_00 3:38

Yeah. Seven, seven, seven.

SPEAKER_01 3:40

Seven, seven, seven.

SPEAKER_00 3:41

Lucky. Uh, yeah. If I get five, oh, I hate it.

SPEAKER_01 3:46

Not good. Can't run on five.

SPEAKER_00 3:48

No, I'm gonna. Five's the minimum.

SPEAKER_01 3:51

You know what's interesting to me is different people can genuinely run on lower amounts of sleep and be fine. And studies have shown that it's okay. It's just literally, quite literally depends on the person.

SPEAKER_00 4:00

I think I can run fine on five, but it's just not my idea.

SPEAKER_01 4:04

I don't feel good.

SPEAKER_00 4:05

I don't feel as good as seven.

SPEAKER_01 4:07

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 4:08

Six and a half is fine.

SPEAKER_01 4:09

I agree.

SPEAKER_00 4:10

The margin between six and a half and seven. Marginal.

SPEAKER_01 4:14

Oh, marginal.

SPEAKER_00 4:15

I think.

SPEAKER_01 4:16

I think but five and seven's a huge difference.

SPEAKER_00 4:19

Do you think it's more important to get it at the end of your sleep or the beginning of your sleep? Like go to bed half an hour earlier or go wake up half an hour later?

SPEAKER_01 4:27

Bed earlier. Earlier. Yeah. I agree. I think earlier missing. But earlier bed is it's better. Versus waking up later, it's not better for me.

SPEAKER_00 4:35

It feels worse, but even if I have nothing to do the day.

SPEAKER_01 4:38

No, yeah, it just doesn't feel as good. Just doesn't feel as good. Totally agree.

SPEAKER_00 4:41

Yep.

SPEAKER_01 4:41

Next topic.

SPEAKER_00 4:42

Sleeping in.

SPEAKER_01 4:43

Sleeping in. You know, it depends.

SPEAKER_00 4:47

Sometimes you just need it.

SPEAKER_01 4:49

You just need it and it feels great. And you feel like you caught up.

SPEAKER_00 4:52

Sometimes, yeah, you're more like, okay, I'm going for my weekly quota, not my daily.

SPEAKER_01 4:57

Yeah, like I didn't sleep enough all week long, so I'm playing catch up right now.

SPEAKER_00 5:01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 5:02

It's nice when you're playing catch up, but it's not nice if you're just fine and you're just oversleeping.

SPEAKER_00 5:07

That that and and you just you just did. Yeah. That I don't like. I need three days of bad sleep to have really appreciate my sleep in.

SPEAKER_01 5:16

What about sleeping in when you accidentally slept in?

SPEAKER_00 5:20

You kind of needed it, then I'm okay with it.

SPEAKER_01 5:22

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 5:22

Like you slept all through your alarm.

SPEAKER_01 5:24

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 5:25

I'm kind of more okay with that than just being like, oh, I had nothing to do today, so I slept in. So I slept in. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 5:31

Versus like, oh, I needed this. I should, I was supposed to sleep an hour again.

SPEAKER_00 5:34

I think we're gonna be popular opinions on any of this, by the way.

SPEAKER_01 5:37

No, we're assholes for this one.

SPEAKER_00 5:39

We're very up and atom people. This is not gonna go well.

SPEAKER_01 5:41

No, it's not. I mean, people don't like vacationing with us because we're too up and atom.

SPEAKER_00 5:46

Oh, I'm not sleeping in on vacation.

SPEAKER_01 5:47

I'm up and at them.

SPEAKER_00 5:48

I got too many things to do.

SPEAKER_01 5:49

I gotta get out there. I gotta see the world.

SPEAKER_00 5:51

I gotta go.

SPEAKER_01 5:52

Next topic.

SPEAKER_00 5:53

Hungover sleep.

SPEAKER_01 5:55

Not great.

SPEAKER_00 5:56

So what do you mean though? Like hungover.

SPEAKER_01 5:59

Like you wake up sleeping.

SPEAKER_00 6:00

You wake up hungover.

SPEAKER_01 6:02

So you sleep all day.

SPEAKER_00 6:04

So you base, I mean, you don't have to sleep all day.

SPEAKER_01 6:06

But you need to sleep.

SPEAKER_00 6:07

It's the only real medicine of it.

SPEAKER_01 6:09

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 6:09

You need to put your body into a medical coma based.

SPEAKER_01 6:12

It's something I've really come to hate. As I feel like I've now wasted a whole day.

SPEAKER_00 6:17

It it is wasteful of the day.

SPEAKER_01 6:19

It's a waste. If I had nothing to do, like I'm alright with it. And I probably planned my life that way, because I'm I get the worst hangovers. Because I just do. You don't really get the worst hangovers, but you have succumbed to the sleeping the next day.

SPEAKER_00 6:34

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 6:35

So how do you feel about it?

SPEAKER_00 6:38

I I mean, if I'm gonna be hungover, I might as well sleep it off.

unknown 6:41

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 6:42

Why sit there in pain?

SPEAKER_01 6:43

Why sit there in pain?

SPEAKER_00 6:44

Yeah.

unknown 6:45

True.

SPEAKER_00 6:45

It's either do stuff and really break the hangover.

SPEAKER_01 6:48

Or sleep.

SPEAKER_00 6:48

Sleep and cure.

SPEAKER_01 6:49

Sleep will cure it.

SPEAKER_00 6:51

Faster in your head.

SPEAKER_01 6:52

Yeah, it is faster. Yeah. I love time travel sleep.

SPEAKER_00 6:58

Time travel sleep, right?

SPEAKER_01 6:59

Next topic.

SPEAKER_00 7:00

Sleeping on planes.

SPEAKER_01 7:01

Time travel sleep.

SPEAKER_00 7:02

Time travel sleep. True.

SPEAKER_01 7:03

I love sleeping. You're rubbing off on me though, and I'm having a harder time sleeping on planes. And it's annoying because I used to be like a magician. I'd get on a plane like a mummy. Sleep. And I'm there. But now you've given me some of your can't sleep on it.

SPEAKER_00 7:20

I just slept for the first time from Seattle. That was my first time ever sleeping on a plane.

SPEAKER_01 7:23

You were in the middle too, which was crazy.

SPEAKER_00 7:25

That was cozy.

SPEAKER_01 7:27

Just cozy.

SPEAKER_00 7:28

Cozy between two ladies.

SPEAKER_01 7:30

Oh, there you go.

SPEAKER_00 7:31

Mm-hmm. No, sleeping on a plane is so nice when you can do it.

SPEAKER_01 7:35

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 7:35

But it is hell to get there. If you can't get there, it's just awful.

SPEAKER_01 7:40

You're just sitting there listening to something.

SPEAKER_00 7:42

And I swear to God, when we first when I first started flying, there was like daytime flying. Like you could have windows open and everything and like do stuff. Now every single flight is shut it down.

SPEAKER_01 7:55

Lock it down, everyone, go to sleep.

SPEAKER_00 7:57

You'll get food a little bit.

SPEAKER_01 7:59

Maybe. And if you're asleep, we're not going to give it to you.

SPEAKER_00 8:01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 8:01

Which is a diabolical thing.

SPEAKER_00 8:03

Am I crazy in thinking that flights used to be more awake?

SPEAKER_01 8:06

Yeah, no, they did. Well, when when I flew with my mom to Florida, it was a pretty awake flight. It was pretty midday. Like proper midday. Oh, really? Yeah. But that Seattle flight we took back, which was proper midday. Proper midday.

SPEAKER_00 8:16

Everyone was like, It was like one o'clock, yeah. And then it was like fully dark in there.

SPEAKER_01 8:19

Yeah, I remember I opened my windows through at the back and I was like, fuck it, it's 2 p.m. I'm not none of us are asleep.

SPEAKER_00 8:24

No, you shut your window.

SPEAKER_01 8:25

I thought I opened it by the end. Oh. I went to sleep.

SPEAKER_00 8:30

Yeah. Next topic. Hotel beds. I like a crisp hotel bed.

SPEAKER_01 8:39

You like how hard they are?

SPEAKER_00 8:40

I like how hard they are. I like how I like the sheets in hotels.

SPEAKER_01 8:44

Well, they're clean, hopefully.

SPEAKER_00 8:46

They're clean.

SPEAKER_01 8:46

You stay at nice hotels, so I think you have the upper echelon of nice hotel bed. I don't think you've really had to suffer too through too many bad hotel beds.

SPEAKER_00 8:55

True. But I think in general they're usually clean. I think that I'd like to think they don't When I sleep at a hotel, I throw everything off the bed to make sure they don't use the same sheets.

SPEAKER_01 9:06

When you go like get up for the next day?

SPEAKER_00 9:08

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 9:09

Yeah, you do do that. You you make sure at least the bed gets remade.

SPEAKER_00 9:12

Yeah. Well, not even for us, for the next people.

SPEAKER_01 9:15

That too.

SPEAKER_00 9:16

Yeah. More for more so for them.

SPEAKER_01 9:18

Yeah, I like a hotel beds? I I'm always wary of them.

SPEAKER_00 9:23

I like how starch and clean they are.

SPEAKER_01 9:25

I mean, but one time it made you sick. Remember? Because they were put using so much bleach it made you sick.

SPEAKER_00 9:30

Itchy?

SPEAKER_01 9:31

You got like sick when we were in a visa.

SPEAKER_00 9:33

It was not the bed.

SPEAKER_01 9:34

It was the bleach.

SPEAKER_00 9:35

I don't know about that.

SPEAKER_01 9:37

Pretty sure. I don't know about that. Alright, whatever. Hotel beds, I feel like I sleep fine. I don't really have a big opinion on the hotel. Out of ten. Six.

SPEAKER_00 9:44

You have no opinion on hotel beds. No, I really. What about our Korean one?

SPEAKER_01 9:52

Okay, got a big opinion. Our Korean hotel bed was one of the best hotels.

SPEAKER_00 9:56

It was like an Asano asylum. It was walled.

SPEAKER_01 9:58

It was fantastic. It was so comfy. It was. Oh my god, that was the best hotel.

SPEAKER_00 10:03

Shout out at the Cappuccino Hotel.

SPEAKER_01 10:04

Yeah, if you're in Seoul, you gotta stay at the Cappuccino Hotel and Clinton.

SPEAKER_00 10:07

I'd stay there again. That is actually, I would stay there. Or I'd go fancier. We went really cheap.

SPEAKER_01 10:12

Yeah. But for a cheap dollars a night.

SPEAKER_00 10:14

For a cheap hotel, I would absolutely go.

SPEAKER_01 10:16

It was literally $70 a night and it was perfect. I know. Cheapest hotel ever.

SPEAKER_00 10:21

And it was awesome.

SPEAKER_01 10:22

It was clean.

SPEAKER_00 10:23

That bed rocked my socks. I think about that bed.

SPEAKER_01 10:26

Perfect bed.

SPEAKER_00 10:27

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 10:27

Loved it. Nailed it. Next topic.

SPEAKER_00 10:30

Melatonin.

SPEAKER_01 10:32

I got melatonin is tricky because you can get kind of addicted to it and then it wears off. Yeah. It stops working.

SPEAKER_00 10:38

I had a melatonin phase once.

SPEAKER_01 10:39

I think everyone, I had one too.

SPEAKER_00 10:41

You take that one, you hit that one hit and you sleep so good. Yeah. I gotta do this again. And then you're doubling up. Next thing you know, you're eight melatonin deep. Not sleeping.

SPEAKER_01 10:50

Not sleeping. Yeah. No, I I love the idea of melaton melatonin's okay for me when you really, really, really need it.

SPEAKER_00 10:56

Man, you got any M on you?

SPEAKER_01 10:58

I need a little I need a little kick. I gotta put me myself down.

SPEAKER_00 11:02

Yeah. And I think after three, you're it's not the same.

SPEAKER_01 11:07

Three nights in a row, you mean?

SPEAKER_00 11:08

Oh, three nights in a row, you're trash. I would say three a month.

SPEAKER_01 11:12

Ah.

SPEAKER_00 11:12

You're jammed up.

SPEAKER_01 11:13

You're jammed up. You're jammed up. Your body's gonna be a good one. I disagree. I think three in a month, you'd be fine. I mean, we don't have any at all, so I don't really have a way to test.

SPEAKER_00 11:21

I don't want melatonin in this house.

SPEAKER_01 11:23

Yeah, because I would take it. You would. I would. I just would. Um, but yeah, I think three days in a row and you're fucked.

SPEAKER_00 11:29

Yeah, I agree.

SPEAKER_01 11:31

Next topic. Uh Nyquil.

SPEAKER_00 11:34

Nyquil.

SPEAKER_01 11:35

Same topic. Different topic. Different topic. Nyquel's fucked up because that first night you are boom!

SPEAKER_00 11:41

Coma.

SPEAKER_01 11:41

Coma. Ow. It's amazing.

SPEAKER_00 11:43

I love it. That's time travel too.

SPEAKER_01 11:46

Second day. Still kind of works. Third day, doesn't work on me anymore. You're off.

SPEAKER_00 11:53

Third day, it's just making me like I'm just getting high off of it. No sleep coming through anymore. No sleep helping. Any of the sleep sedatives that was in there. Recreational drugs at that point.

SPEAKER_01 12:03

I'm a little sick and I'm a little high.

SPEAKER_00 12:05

Yeah, I'm a little like nauseous. I'm like, oh my back, my back's weird. My spine.

SPEAKER_01 12:10

Why do I feel like I'm floating?

SPEAKER_00 12:12

Why is my spine made of gummy?

SPEAKER_01 12:13

Can I just have lean at this point? Like, what are we doing?

SPEAKER_00 12:15

What are we doing? I need give me lean and some sprite. Um, yeah, Nyquil's a heavy dose. Yeah. But I respect it more than melatonin. I'll have Nyquil in my house.

SPEAKER_01 12:27

I love NyQuil. When I'm sick and I need a NyQuil.

SPEAKER_00 12:30

Oh.

SPEAKER_01 12:31

Any sickness?

SPEAKER_00 12:32

I'm just like, give me a NyQuil.

SPEAKER_01 12:33

Give me a NyQuil. I'm gonna sleep off.

SPEAKER_00 12:35

I'll sl I'll sweat and sleep this off.

SPEAKER_01 12:37

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 12:38

All in one go.

SPEAKER_01 12:39

Put Joey in a big hoodie, some big sweats, probably a snowboard jacket, also.

SPEAKER_00 12:43

Yeah, that's what I do.

SPEAKER_01 12:44

And then that morning is usually 50% better.

SPEAKER_00 12:48

At least.

SPEAKER_01 12:49

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 12:49

I sweat it out.

SPEAKER_01 12:50

If not a hundred, but you at least 50.

SPEAKER_00 12:52

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 12:52

That's the secret. Next topic.

SPEAKER_00 12:55

Mouth tape.

SPEAKER_01 12:56

I don't like it.

SPEAKER_00 12:58

I don't like it. I think it's fake. I think Huberman's got stock in mouth tape.

SPEAKER_01 13:04

I don't think Huberman is mouth tape stock. I think mouth tape just doesn't work because you yawn in your sleep and it pops off.

SPEAKER_00 13:12

I think, yeah, my I'm too moist for that.

SPEAKER_01 13:15

And I'm trying to keep my lips not chapped. I keep way too much lip gloss on to keep it on.

SPEAKER_00 13:20

I just think if I need to breathe, I should breathe.

SPEAKER_01 13:22

Well, it's it's trying to train you to breathe through your nose. True. That's the thing. I get it, but I don't like to be a mouth breather.

SPEAKER_00 13:28

I don't like looking like a hostage.

SPEAKER_01 13:30

It makes you look crazy. Yeah. I like my thing I do where I wear I wear like a surgical life. You like the sands, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 13:38

You have a neck.

SPEAKER_01 13:39

So it keeps your mouth close, as close as possible, without putting tape on your face. And kind of gives you a little snatched jaw. I don't know.

SPEAKER_00 13:47

Oh, that's not the exact reason you use it. Uh I don't know if it's good to have glue on your face every night.

SPEAKER_01 13:52

I don't think it is.

SPEAKER_00 13:53

Are you supposed to how are you supposed to ever wean off of it and go, oh, I'm a I'm a I'm a nosebreather now. I know I've learned.

SPEAKER_01 14:00

No, you're supposed to be around.

SPEAKER_00 14:01

It's a forever thing.

SPEAKER_01 14:02

No, it's just kind of wasteful too.

SPEAKER_00 14:04

Thumbs down on mouth tape.

SPEAKER_01 14:06

Yeah. Hate mouth tape. Hate it. Pro next sling.

SPEAKER_00 14:09

I guess. You wash it, you reuse it, it's nice.

SPEAKER_01 14:12

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 14:12

Alright.

SPEAKER_01 14:12

Next topic.

SPEAKER_00 14:14

Snoring.

SPEAKER_01 14:15

I don't know. Do you snore?

SPEAKER_00 14:18

No, you do snore a little.

SPEAKER_01 14:20

Blue snores a lot.

SPEAKER_00 14:21

Bulldog.

SPEAKER_01 14:22

Our bulldog snores a little bit.

SPEAKER_00 14:23

Bulldog snore a lot. Blue is a big snorer. He sounds like a lawnmower.

SPEAKER_01 14:27

My dad sounds like a lawnmower.

SPEAKER_00 14:29

My dad sounds like a barren hibernation.

SPEAKER_01 14:31

Do you think it's a dad thing? Are you gonna start snoring if we have kids?

SPEAKER_00 14:34

I think it's a fat guy thing.

SPEAKER_01 14:36

Ah, the belly is like all the weights coming up.

SPEAKER_00 14:39

They got fat on their neck. The fatter you are, the fatter your neck is.

SPEAKER_01 14:43

I see.

SPEAKER_00 14:43

That's why you can do the pants trick.

SPEAKER_01 14:46

You know that one? I do, yeah. Width of your neck is the width of your pants. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know if that actually works.

SPEAKER_00 14:52

I don't know either, but I saw another thing today about fat people having fat necks.

SPEAKER_01 14:56

Yeah, I mean, they do have fat necks. It does make a few.

SPEAKER_00 14:59

If you're fat, you probably have sleep apnea. Because your fat neck's collapsing your throat. Fat necks collapsing. Your fat necks collapsing your throat.

SPEAKER_01 15:06

Sorry.

SPEAKER_00 15:07

I mean, I think that's mostly what it is. Your airways are like tightened from all the fat around it.

SPEAKER_01 15:11

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 15:12

So yeah, we're not really snores. I think if we gained 50, we'd snore a lot more. Probably. I catch you snoring only if your head's like in a weird position. Then I'll catch you a little, but it's still pretty.

SPEAKER_01 15:26

You snore sometimes.

SPEAKER_00 15:27

What does it sound like?

SPEAKER_01 15:28

I can't reenact your snore.

SPEAKER_00 15:30

Come on. That's not true.

SPEAKER_01 15:33

No, so I'm saying you don't have like a deep roaring bare earth-shattering snore like both of our dads do. No, you have like a light snore. But when you and blue are both going, I'm like, that's a lot.

SPEAKER_00 15:45

Tag team.

SPEAKER_01 15:46

Tag team. But blue, fat neck.

SPEAKER_00 15:50

Fatneck bulldogs.

SPEAKER_01 15:51

Supports your theory.

SPEAKER_00 15:52

Yeah, thank you, buddy. Fatneck Bulldogs, snore.

SPEAKER_01 15:55

Next topic.

SPEAKER_00 15:56

Night terrors.

SPEAKER_01 15:59

I'll let you take this one away.

SPEAKER_00 16:02

I s so uh I don't know if you've heard of this. Uh some people of night terror. I don't know. They just freak out. It's like it's like the nightmares taking over their reality. They can't move. They can't move. They scream. Sometimes they do move and they hit. And uh crazy, I have firsthand experience because the person I sleep next to gets night tears sometimes.

SPEAKER_01 16:23

Maybe like three, six, two, two times a year.

SPEAKER_00 16:29

Three to six a year. Two. One to two. You yelled like two days ago.

SPEAKER_01 16:33

I don't remember that.

SPEAKER_00 16:34

I vaguely remember because it's a nighttime. And uh so the person I sleep next to has about three to six a year. And two! One time she thought I was some sort of demon, which I am the demon of all those. So and then she had I could I could I woke- I always wake up right before you somehow. I always go, uh, something like that.

SPEAKER_01 16:52

Maybe you're trying to scare me.

SPEAKER_00 16:54

I go, oh something spooky's going on. Something spooky's about to be.

SPEAKER_01 16:58

Maybe we are being haunted. I never had it till we moved in here, and you're gonna protect me from the ghost that's haunting my fucking dreams.

SPEAKER_00 17:05

I am I'm the one haunting your dreams, obviously. I wake up, I go, time to get to work. I'm your sleep paralysis, David.

SPEAKER_01 17:12

Oh.

SPEAKER_00 17:12

Uh yeah, but one time I you know you I woke up and I was like, oh no, here it comes. I just I almost feel it. Maybe it's about to happen. And you had such a knife thing.

SPEAKER_01 17:23

Stop.

SPEAKER_00 17:24

And you smacked me straight in the chest, stabbed me in the heart like I was a vampire. Sorry. It's okay. I've been crucified.

SPEAKER_01 17:37

Um, yeah, sorry about that. Nightmares are crazy. Nightmares are crazy and you have no control over them, and you wake up screaming and you can't stop.

SPEAKER_00 17:45

Oh god.

SPEAKER_01 17:46

And it's scary.

SPEAKER_00 17:47

Thank God it goes this way.

SPEAKER_01 17:49

I mean, if you're scared, imagine how I feel.

SPEAKER_00 17:51

Oh my god, you scream so loud, too. Like it's the craziest thing ever.

SPEAKER_01 17:59

Like, I've only seen standing over me.

SPEAKER_00 18:01

I've only seen a screen.

SPEAKER_01 18:02

No, literally, imagine just a dark figure standing over you. It's frightening.

SPEAKER_00 18:06

I've only seen a scream like that in a crazy Instagram reel where someone died.

SPEAKER_01 18:13

I'm dying. Film it, probably go viral. Finally.

SPEAKER_00 18:17

Finally.

SPEAKER_01 18:18

Finally. So yeah, night terrors suck. We got it.

SPEAKER_00 18:20

All right, hit me.

SPEAKER_01 18:21

Next topic!

SPEAKER_00 18:22

Dreams.

SPEAKER_01 18:23

Dreams. I get super vivid dreams.

SPEAKER_00 18:25

I'm not a big dreamer.

SPEAKER_01 18:26

I'm a huge dreamer. It's probably why I get night terrors. That's the dumbest thing you've ever said. You're not too stupid to dream.

SPEAKER_00 18:32

Okay.

SPEAKER_01 18:32

I think just some people dream and some people don't.

SPEAKER_00 18:34

Why? What do you think the deciding factor is?

SPEAKER_01 18:37

How crazy you are.

SPEAKER_00 18:38

So you think the crazier you are, the more you dream?

SPEAKER_01 18:40

Yeah. And I think I'm fucking crazy. I get night terrors, dude. That's true. You're pretty nuts. Yeah. I get crazy vivid dreams. I can't lucid dream, which kind of sucks. People also think that's like an easy thing to do. It's not.

SPEAKER_00 18:53

No, it's you have to be trained.

SPEAKER_01 18:55

You have to be trained. It's a very imagine being aware in your dreams of what's going on enough so.

SPEAKER_00 19:00

I have one lucid dream. It was awesome.

SPEAKER_01 19:02

Yeah, I don't get lucid dreams. I get crazy vivid, like almost like you're dropping acid.

SPEAKER_00 19:10

Surrealistic dream. Matt's dad's lucid dreams. Like almost every night.

SPEAKER_01 19:14

He's a genius.

SPEAKER_00 19:14

Wouldn't you be addicted to dreaming? Going to sleep.

SPEAKER_01 19:17

Maybe. Maybe.

SPEAKER_00 19:18

Maybe you just go in your dream and make anything you want every single time.

SPEAKER_01 19:21

Maybe he does.

SPEAKER_00 19:22

He's an addict.

SPEAKER_01 19:23

He's an addict.

SPEAKER_00 19:24

He's an addict. But then he's got a Nyckel stash like Noah. Yeah. Hooked up.

SPEAKER_01 19:28

Yeah. I mean, he's a quiet guy. You don't know what he's up to.

SPEAKER_00 19:31

True.

SPEAKER_01 19:31

Yeah. So what about you? What do you think about dreams?

SPEAKER_00 19:35

I'm kind of honestly I'm kind of 50-50 on dreams.

SPEAKER_01 19:38

What do you mean?

SPEAKER_00 19:39

If I even like them.

SPEAKER_01 19:40

You don't like them? I don't know. You'd rather just time travel straight to the end.

SPEAKER_00 19:43

I think.

SPEAKER_01 19:44

That's how I feel. Maybe. I don't like dreaming.

SPEAKER_00 19:45

Maybe just bam.

SPEAKER_01 19:46

I get dreams. I don't want it.

SPEAKER_00 19:49

Dreaming is exhausting.

SPEAKER_01 19:50

When you wake up, especially if you're me, I gotta piece out what happened, what didn't.

SPEAKER_00 19:54

Hold on, hold on.

SPEAKER_01 19:55

Who was who who was I talking to?

SPEAKER_00 19:58

What vampire? What vampire was where?

SPEAKER_01 20:00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 20:01

I don't have enough good dreams, I think.

SPEAKER_01 20:03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 20:03

To want to dream more.

SPEAKER_01 20:05

I it's weird that good dreams are so rare.

SPEAKER_00 20:08

Yeah. Maybe we're traumatized.

SPEAKER_01 20:11

Oh. Is that what we're finding out right now?

SPEAKER_00 20:14

They could be. Maybe drop it in the comments. Maybe more.

SPEAKER_01 20:16

On a scale of one to ten.

SPEAKER_00 20:17

Because dreams in general have a pretty good record in the zeitgeist of humanity.

SPEAKER_01 20:22

Do they?

SPEAKER_00 20:23

You go, what do you dream of?

SPEAKER_01 20:25

In your life. It's positive. Not in your sleep.

Yeah, this is your hopes and dreams.

SPEAKER_00 20:30

Okay, hopes and dreams.

SPEAKER_01 20:31

Okay, I get it.

SPEAKER_00 20:32

It's a positive connotation.

SPEAKER_01 20:33

You want to like hyper like uh dissociate, basically.

SPEAKER_01 20:54

Yeah, I'm a dissociator.

SPEAKER_00 20:56

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 20:56

SPEAKER_00 20:57

I love a good nap. I do too. I wish I could nap more often. But I'm Italian.

SPEAKER_01 21:01

Yeah, it's your three. It's like in your DNA.

SPEAKER_00 21:03

Yeah, they said that. Incestry. It was like you're a nap. You come from nap.

SPEAKER_01 21:06

You're a napper.

SPEAKER_00 21:07

You come from nap.

SPEAKER_01 21:08

I guess the Swedes don't nap. I don't think they do.

SPEAKER_00 21:10

Swedes do nap. No, I don't. I don't think you come from nap cold.

SPEAKER_01 21:13

They got they gotta hibernate. They gotta dissociate.

SPEAKER_00 21:16

They're just too cold to use. They're too cold to bother.

SPEAKER_01 21:18

They're like, I might die.

SPEAKER_00 21:19

I have to keep the fire going, or else I'm dead.

SPEAKER_01 21:21

Literally.

SPEAKER_00 21:22

SPEAKER_00 21:25

Waking up. The end of sleep.

SPEAKER_01 21:28

SPEAKER_00 21:30

It is weird to just go, oh, my battery's charged.

SPEAKER_01 21:32

I'm awake again. Oh. Oh. Here I am. Especially when you wake up, no alarm. Natural. Natural. Raw dog wake up is kind of weird.

SPEAKER_00 21:41

It is kind of funky.

SPEAKER_01 21:42

Yeah. And then the stuff. Oh, I'm here.

SPEAKER_00 21:44

But then you're the one stretch that you can only get when you first wake up. When you first wake up.

SPEAKER_01 21:50

Feels great.

SPEAKER_00 21:51

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 21:52

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 21:52

It's so crazy.

SPEAKER_01 21:54

It's surreal.

SPEAKER_00 21:55

It's such a human experience.

SPEAKER_01 21:57

No, it's not. Dogs do the same thing. When Blue wakes up, he does it. He does a big stretch.

SPEAKER_00 22:02

Maybe it's a mammal thing.

SPEAKER_01 22:04

Yeah, I don't think fish get big stretch.

SPEAKER_00 22:06

Do fish stretch?

SPEAKER_01 22:08

That's a great question. Do fish stretch?

SPEAKER_00 22:10

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 22:11

I don't know.

SPEAKER_00 22:11

I think it might be mammal.

SPEAKER_01 22:12

I think it might be a mammal thing. They don't have bones in the but they might. I feel like I haven't seen that. Do they stretch their fins out?

SPEAKER_00 22:19

I feel like I haven't seen a lizard stretch. So that's yes, they do.

SPEAKER_01 22:22

They put their hand up to the sun.

SPEAKER_00 22:23

That's just they're just trying to wake up. That's their stretch. Okay.

SPEAKER_01 22:27

I don't know how that feels on their body.

SPEAKER_00 22:28

That's true.

SPEAKER_01 22:29

Next topic.

SPEAKER_00 22:30

Drunk sleep.

SPEAKER_01 22:32

Drunk sleep's like teleporting, also. Like you made it to bed.

SPEAKER_00 22:35

You that is truly.

SPEAKER_01 22:36

Well, if you if you made it to bed.

SPEAKER_00 22:38

That's truly the teleportation. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 22:39

That is Oh my god. When you wake up from a drunk sleep and you're like, oh my god, I'm in bed. And then you have to like touch yourself. You're like, okay, what am I wearing? Yeah. Did I get into PJs? Did I wash out?

SPEAKER_00 22:48

Oh, blackout to wake up.

SPEAKER_01 22:49

SPEAKER_00 22:50

Insane. Insane. It's great when you're in bed.

SPEAKER_01 22:52

You're like, oh my god. If I have made it into PJs and washed up, I've won.

SPEAKER_00 22:58

I would say that's you're pretty good about it.

SPEAKER_01 23:00

I've got a good record. Yeah. But if I haven't, I gotta do a real recap, a real check my phone. Who was I with last?

SPEAKER_00 23:08

Did you see me?

SPEAKER_01 23:10

You got you gotta start piecing the puzzle together. Look at happiness. Yeah. Checking postmates, make sure I don't have anything waiting for me out front. You know there, you know, there's definitely like a burger and a milkshake.

SPEAKER_00 23:22

Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_01 23:22

Some French fries.

SPEAKER_00 23:24

And then you get to eat that in the morning. Kind of win. Maybe win's a win.

SPEAKER_01 23:27

Maybe, unless trash didn't hit under the bed. Drunk sleep's great.

SPEAKER_00 23:35

Next topic. Sleepovers.

SPEAKER_01 23:37

Fun.

SPEAKER_00 23:38

What age can they stop?

SPEAKER_01 23:39

I was thinking about this recently.

SPEAKER_00 23:40

Okay. Um you could sleep over to friends, but not if they live in the same city as you. How far does a friend have to live for you to sleep over?

SPEAKER_01 23:52

At this age.

SPEAKER_00 23:53

At an adult. Proper. Pay taxes. Two and a half hours? Yeah, it's got it. Two hours. Two hours, I'll say.

SPEAKER_01 24:05

Yeah, like I'm not gonna go down the street and go stay at Aaron's house.

SPEAKER_00 24:08

No, that'd be insane. Love you, Erin.

SPEAKER_01 24:10

You're down the street. I'm not staying over.

SPEAKER_00 24:12

Sleepovers, I think, I think over two hours.

SPEAKER_01 24:16

Like, even my parents is like a little too close.

SPEAKER_00 24:20

Are they two hours?

SPEAKER_01 24:21

They're like, yeah, they're like an hour and a half, and I and they're not friends, but I'm just thinking distance-wise. Like what's what's that line? Like, what's that line? Like, would you Santa Barbara? Would you stay out there? Depends.

SPEAKER_00 24:36

I depends what you're doing. From Los Angeles to Santa Barbara is truly the line. Yeah. Any find that you gotta sleep somewhere.

SPEAKER_01 24:44

Yeah, I gotta stay over.

SPEAKER_00 24:45

That's my final straw. Yeah. Place. I agree. That I don't need to sleep over. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 24:50

Um but you could also depend.

SPEAKER_00 24:53

Sleepovers as kids though.

SPEAKER_01 24:55

Fun.

SPEAKER_00 24:56

Anytime.

SPEAKER_01 24:56

Yeah. It's it's also funny. I was definitely the kid that was afraid to sleep over. I was that kid. I I would call my brother.

SPEAKER_00 25:02

I was, but I don't think I wanted anyone to sleep over, so I'd be like, dumb, don't no.

unknown 25:07

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 25:08

I don't want to sleep over. I don't want their action.

SPEAKER_01 25:10

No, I wasn't allowed to have sleepovers really, and I always got picked up.

SPEAKER_00 25:15

That's crazy.

SPEAKER_01 25:17

But then I also think I crossed a threshold where my mom would just tell me I was scared and she'd pick me up because she didn't want to even run that range.

SPEAKER_00 25:23

She started to just do it. Field it.

SPEAKER_01 25:25

She'd just go, and then and then I was like, I'm old enough, just let me stay. And she's like, I've been through it. And I'm like, what? I was fine.

SPEAKER_00 25:32

Yeah, they love to hold on to it.

SPEAKER_01 25:33

Yeah, they and we'll get to do that.

SPEAKER_00 25:35

And the parents got in such a big fight the mom left. It was awesome. Great.

SPEAKER_01 25:38

That's crazy.

SPEAKER_00 25:40

Yeah, it was crazy.

SPEAKER_01 25:40

Yeah, sleepovers as a kid are crazy, a little risky.

SPEAKER_00 25:43

Dynamic of a different family.

SPEAKER_01 25:44

Yeah, you gotta watch their whole dynamic. Yeah, it's crazy.

SPEAKER_00 25:49
