iRescueRadio 042: Fainting, Aliens, Sleep Paralysis, Dreams

Sleep disorders affect millions of people. Associated problems can range from feeling tired during the day to life threatening cardiovascular damage.  If you have had difficulty with sleep maybe it is  something other than a medical condition. Maybe it is those pesky aliens that keep abducting people in the night.  Are aliens abducting people or could it be sleep paralysis? You’ll have to listen in to find out.   The iRescueradio guys are up to their usual antics with Dan’s fainting,  Roy’s research,  and Jody’s dreaming.

We’ve included a bonus feature this week, a “behind the scenes” blooper.  Jody learned a valuable lesson about reviewing research before trying to use it.
