Flash Forward is a show about possible (and not so possible) future scenarios. What would the warranty on a sex robot look like? How would diplomacy work if we couldn’t lie? Could there ever be a fecal transplant black market? (Complicated, it wouldn’t, and yes, respectively, in case you’re curious.)

Hosted by bestselling author Steven Johnson (“How We Got To Now”), American Innovations uses immersive scenes to tell the stories of the scientists, engineers, and ordinary people behind the great ...

In this podcast episode, I sat down for an in depth conversation with Baland Jalal. Baland is a researcher in the department of psychiatry at Cambridge University. He obtained his PhD at the Cambridge University School of Clinical Medicine and was previously a Fellow at Harvard University. His research focuses on sleep paralysis and he recently designed one of the first ever treatments for sleep paralysis called meditation-relaxation therapy. Along with VS Ramachandran, he has proposed a neuroscientific account for why people see ghosts during sleep paralysis. The Telegraph Described him as "one of the world's leading experts on sleep paralysis".
The discussion mainly focus on Sleep Paralysis, its causes and its treatment as well as the science of dreaming.
