I agree with Sam. This is a casual forum on a subject that interests you. Nothing forced here. Makes a big difference in how well it's retained. Although... you may very well have failed to comprehend any of that without the fundamental knowledge gained from prior years. I think we sometimes forget the importance of things we learn at the early stages.

Love the shows about understanding the brain. Please do more of these.

As someone who has had shared dreams with people, as well as conversations in these dreams that we were able to confirm in waking reality, I think the answer to what dreams are is a lot more complex than just random firing of neurons.

3 awesome hosts and a fascinating topic - I could listen to this stuff all day

not even 10 minutes in and I'm already a fan of the co-host "now for a question thats close to my heart; "how do psychedelics work in the brain?""

A 2 hour podcast with her would have been nice.

Didnt he say in the Spring

I am one of these people who is very open about my personal experiences with my mental illness diagnoses. I think it goes a long way with helping people understand me and others like me. I also feel it helps to educate people and removes fear and stereotypes. Knowledge is a powerful thing and it should be shared. If people want to judge me for my brain being broken, that's on them, not me. Those of us who suffer from mental illness should not be afraid to be honest with themselves and others about it. It's not our fault, but it is our responsibility to seek help for it, as difficult as it can be at times. No matter what your personal situation though, there are resources for you.

This was an informative and fun episode at the same time. Always charming and smart Heather Berlin and Jackie Hoffman with a very subtle but very funny humor.

It’s crazy how basic or even advanced chemistry somehow became biology. I mean when you boil things down to the basics it’s just chemical reactions but for some reason these sets of chemical reactions come together to form life as we know it truly truly amazing.

Its crazy how with all the advanced technology and knowledge we have its still a complete and utter mystery. We can do gene editing, cloning, split an atom, land on the moon etc but cannot make chemistry become biology and begin to self replicate. We may never know how this happened

Love this episode, very insightful and thought provoking

I just started watching startalk.. I gotta say this one of my favorite. It's super interesting how are brain works! I wish then can do another one with her.

36:11 I actually just had a nightmare of getting caught out in the woods with a bear, thinking I could sneak past, but it saw me and started charging me and I realized that there was absolutely nowhere for me to hide or escape. i woke up in fear and with a deep sense of dread all over my body. I'm pretty sure I'll never make such a mistake in real life after that terrible experience

Best episode to blaze and watch.

This was definitely one of the best episodes of Star Talk. Very great information!!!

Really enjoyed this topic and the guests!

More with these ladies please

Hey Neil love your videos. Always learning new things.

Sometimes people know they are talking to themselves and do so to relieve stress. I would like to hear more about that.

Love you Heather and Neil.

One of my favourite subjects

Most of my dreams nowadays that I remember are just random events taking place where I work, which sometimes causes me to not know if I dreamt something or if it actually happened. Other dreams have been either nonsense or awesome. I've had lots of zombie dreams, and the things that I've seen in my dreams are so detailed. I once had a dream about Digimon, and the monsters were in my dream and they were more realistic and it was amazing.

Informative and engaging.

This was excellent!

Regarding psychedelics - why is it that many people taking plant medicine will often have similar visions of certain alien species or “spirit guides”? If it’s entirely internal, shouldn’t all of these visions be unique and different from each other? But instead, we see that there’s always a few “species” or “guides” who show up more commonly than others? Why is that?

@joshnordin4043

Boom. Thing is about all these researchers talking about psychedelics is that they've never done them themselves.

@lidaa8514

It might have to do with how human beings have a natural tendency to imagine living beings, as opposed to static objects; as living beings make up a large part of human existence. For example, they're essential for ensuring survival (food sharing + being part of a tribe) or recognising threats (which are also usually caused by living things). When the brain is facing a situation that it doesn't know how to deal with, it makes sense that it tries to identify its situation by looking for cues (and evolutionarily speaking, that would've meant looking for any threats from animals or humans). I may be entirely wrong, but I think it's a compatible theory.

I am immensely qualified to speak on this subject as i am known in my community as a "hero" tripper. Hero tripper being roughly defined as an idiot who takes super high doses as a rule. I personally have seen astounding things, awesome, and terrifying. However, in my (admittedly subjective) experience, i have never made linguistic contact with any being witnessed. In other words ive never experienced something describable as a guide.

11:32 great answer on how things you hallucinate are all coming from you, it's only that you can no longer tell it's internal and not external

Hey! Thanks for the show!

usually I like chuck but jackie is hilarious, lol id like to see her more on here

I'd like to know the truth about what stage and how many days or weeks it takes for a fetus to feel pain. Some say it's very soon after conception while others say it's longer. I'd rather hear from a true expert like the guest in this podcast rather than from people who think the know but don't and not from people with an agenda.

Awareness never changes, No matter the happenings going on. Only tye activity of the self-contraction deludes us into other perspectives. Consciousness is what we truly are.

My dream understanding (I took several psychology and a neurobiology at UCF) is that if you wake up from the REM stage of sleep and consciously recall the dream, you'll remember it again. You dream in REM, after stages 1&2 light sleep, 3 deep sleep, in REM your body is paralyzed to keep safe while dreaming. Sleep paralysis, an anxiety symptom in which you wake up before you can move and end up falling back asleep, can be scary or frustrating. For me, after looking at my arms thinking "I really need to get up now" I'd end up oversleeping. Luckily, this only seemed to happen when I slept at my parents' house while my primary home was my college apartment, so I assume it was some sort of away-from-home thing. Knock on wood the problem hasn't continued. Our brains are amazingly intricate systems.

Any data,internally or externally motivated, quantifiable,specific,measurable,,must be reliable,verifiable,by replicated sources.So however you want to play with this,,,anchor it in science.One more time.Anchor it.Thats why,I love science.

Dreams...I am a disabled veteran who is dealing with PTSD. I was a Paralegal in the Army and I had a case where a man from my unit murdered a friend of mine. I dealt with nightmares for quite a while running through how she was killed. And it has been quite a while since I had a nightmare about this but I still remember it distinctly to this day. But since then I don't believe I have had a dream, either. Since summer of 1991, I have not slept longer than 5 hours a night.I am sorry that there is a lot to deal with in this post.

Aneurysm survivor here, very lucky and had it clipped before it burst.

Just now, I saw Bob Seger album in the left corner. Respect for that, he is a great musican :D

THANK YOU for the term threat rehearsal, i submit that video games are also a form of this.

My brother was diagnosed as schizophrenic over 20 years ago. He converses with people we can't see nearly every day. It is usually people he has actually known in real life. Sometimes he might have a heated argument with his girlfriend who is on the other side of town, sometimes it will be with our deceased Father. Sometimes I wonder whether a different perception of space-time has something to do with it.

MrAnperm actually it’s the part of the brain that has recall. We all hear several voices in our heads but we recognize them as thoughts. Your brother hears those thoughts but he hears those thoughts as if they are outside of him.

Neil i appreciate, when referencing LSD for her example, you claimed “nice and clean.” I appreciate that comment as LSD-25 and its analogues are relatively safe for our neurochemistry compared to some of the new designer chemicals. The LD-50 is so far from achievable for a consumer. That is my reference for appreciating Neils comment. Still dangerous, you need to read up and prepare, be safe. Get your drugs tested IF you are going to ingest a chemical. Period.
