About Dream Schemers

Take a biweekly dive into the world of dreams. How is it that everyone has dreams and we still don't know why or exactly how? Accompany us, Josh and Emma, on our journey to discover everything they can about dreams. We aren't experts, just two pals with very vivid dreams and a lot of burning questions. Each week we interview a dreamer or dream expert and get their take. We also explore research from the fields of neuroscience, history, anthropology, psychology, religions and more. If you ever wondered what dreams are made of, come find out with us, The Dream Schemers!

5. Gast Your Flabbers with Jo Mattingly!

What does the title mean? You gotta listen to find out.  This week Josh and Emma speak with Jo Mattingly about her vivid dream world including rollercoasters, sleep paralysis, lucid dreaming and what it all means to her. Jo has a degree in psychology and a long-standing interest in dream self-interpretation. She offers us many amazing insights and was a delight to have her on the show!  Our Dream Museum exhibit introduces us to  Dr. Erik Hoel [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erik_Hoel]'s Overfitted Brain Hypothesis  based on artificial deep learning networks proposes that dreams help our brains stay flexible and able to adapt to new situations. Very cool!

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
