Summary

An international team of researchers was able to achieve real-time dialogues with people in the midst of lucid dreams, according to a study published in Current Biology. Jeff and Anthony discuss whether they have experienced lucid dreaming, and if the excitement around this study is a bit overstated.

Anthony and Jeff make sense of the idea that people might hurt themselves rather than do nothing.
