What if the most honest version of you only appears when you’re asleep?
In this episode, Scott Asmar revisits his longtime fascination with dreaming—not to interpret symbols, but to explore the bigger mystery of why we dream at all. He touches on lucid dreaming, where some sleepers become conscious enough to steer the story, and contrasts that sense of control with his own real-life struggle with night terrors—episodes of sheer panic that strike in non-REM sleep, where the body thrashes but the mind can’t fully wake.
Scott also reflects on new research linking nightmares to accelerated aging and long-term health risks, raising an unexpected question: what is the emotional toll of what happens at night?
From recurring school dreams to the fading era of black-and-white dreamers, this episode is less about explanation and more about awareness. Whether your dreams comfort you or confront you, Scott invites you to pay attention, because even in sleep, your mind may be trying to tell you something.
