A lone crow...a hidden key...another traveler...a place full of Mountain Magic...

After crossing the RIVER OF DECISION over to TREATED TERRITORY, Robert's gonna find out the reason for that ol' ISLAND SAYING: It's not the crossing, it's the landing!

Many things can go wrong, you see...on your way to Pleasant Dreams Beach.

In this special Season Finale episode, our ol' pal Robert will discover that orienteering around the ISLE is going to require an...um...elevated approach (tee-hee!)...along with...a different set of eyes, a ghost, and an engineering mindset.

1. ...take a personal tour of an expert-level Sleep Medicine clinical problem-solving tool  called The Five Finger Approach
2. ...look "under the hood" of the Sleep-Wake MACHINE called the TWO-PROCESS MODEL of Sleep-Wake Regulation
3. ...dig deep into the concept of Circadian Misalignment, using a neato and fully RAD biologic decoder-ring GIZMO called the Circadian Rhythmo-Wheel!
