What if your dreams aren’t random? What if they’re your subconscious speaking in symbols, emotions, and midnight metaphors? In tonight’s episode, Yarrow gently guides us into the inner world of dreams...where science meets symbolism, and emotion weaves meaning into the shadows. Whether you've had a dream that lingered all day or a surreal sleep-scape you couldn’t make sense of, this episode is here to help you understand what your mind may be trying to tell you.
We’ll explore:
🔹 Why dreams aren’t just “mental noise” (they’re part of your brain’s emotional housekeeping)
🔹 How REM sleep transforms waking stress into symbolic stories
🔹 Common dream themes like falling, flying, or losing teeth and what they might mean
🔹 Why emotions (not just images) are the real key to interpretation
🔹 Listener-submitted dreams and their layered, symbolic insights
🧠 Backed by neuroscience.
💭 Told with warmth, wonder, and just a whisper of wit.
✨ Plus: A teaser for Friday’s episode where we step into the realm of nightmares, sleep demons, and the Oneiroi—the dark-winged bringers of dreams. If this episode brings clarity, comfort, or curiosity your way, we’d love for you to follow, review, or share with a fellow night-minded soul.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
