Speaker 1 (00:00):
On a two point seven kiss FM. So I sleep
on my how do you sleep? I sleep on my stomach,
hugging a pillow with me out like I'm you're running.

Speaker 2 (00:12):
You're like, I'm running, okay, side.

Speaker 3 (00:15):
That's an interesting fact. There's something subconscious to that, like
you always need to be on the move if you
sleep like that with your leg out, like.

Speaker 2 (00:25):
You're running about that.

Speaker 3 (00:27):
No, but it's so on brand for you, Like I
didn't realize your stuff like that.

Speaker 1 (00:30):
Yeah, I'm trying to get somewhere while I'm sleeping. Yeah,
and that suppose hogging a pillow, arm up, legout, yeah.

Speaker 2 (00:36):
Me out, Yeah like that the whole night. I flip
left and right. I'm like a helicop gets tired.

Speaker 4 (00:41):
Yeah, I'm just like my stomach, my back that side.

Speaker 2 (00:43):
Oh, I can't do well, that's the thing, my back.
I cannot sleep on back.

Speaker 1 (00:46):
My doctor says, better to sleep on your back, better
to sleep on your back.

Speaker 4 (00:49):
I only sleep on my back, like right when like
my first alarm goes off.

Speaker 1 (00:52):
Uh. Well, now, new research indicates it's sleeping in this
position might increase the risk of neuro degenerative disorders on
your back.

Yay, no, don't sleep on your back. No, I'm being sarcastic. Okay, fine,
then yay, there you go.

of brain toxins which can accumulate and worse than overtime.

up and then I just kind of sit sitting.

Down like this every Friday.

Speaker 4 (01:37):
More like Saturday mornings.

Speaker 2 (01:39):
Yeah, that's interesting though.

So for the brain on your back's not good, But
I think for other parts your body on your stomach
and twisted is not good either.

Speaker 2 (01:45):
