So,right off the bat, basically all you need to know about this episode is that Hank sings this week's Science Poem. Beyond that, we delve into the eternal mystery that is 'sleep.' Where do oursdreams come from? How does sleeping help rejuvenate our brains and bodies? Why do some people need less sleep than others? Turns out, no one really knows yet, but it's still fun to talk about! Follow us on Twitter @SciShowTangents, where we’ll tweet out topics for upcoming episodes and you can ask the science couch questions! And if you want to learn more about any of our main topics, check out these links:[Truth or Fail]Sleeping and Idea Generation:https://www.theatlantic.com/science/archive/2018/05/sleep-creativity-theory/560399/http://mentalfloss.com/article/12763/11-creative-breakthroughs-people-had-their-sleephttps://www.brainpickings.org/2016/02/08/mendeleev-periodic-table-dream/https://www.inverse.com/article/3696-5-dreams-that-led-to-scientific-breakthroughs[Fact Off]Auto activation deficit: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24026624https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2013/09/130911211923.htmNarcolepsy and dogs: https://med.stanford.edu/narcolepsy/narcolepsyhistory.htmlhttps://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s12026-014-8513-4https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3625934/https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9481825https://med.stanford.edu/content/dam/sm/psychiatry/documents/narcolepsy/latestnews/cell98.pdf[Ask the Science Couch]Naturally short sleepers:https://www.ucsf.edu/news/2018/03/410051/scientists-discover-how-gene-mutation-reduces-need-sleephttps://www.pnas.org/content/115/13/3434.short?rss=1https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3589707/Circadian rhythms:http://healthysleep.med.harvard.edu/healthy/science/variations/individual-variation-geneticshttps://www.scientificamerican.com/article/having-this-gene-may-make-some-people-night-owls/Flies:https://journals.plos.org/plosgenetics/article?id=10.1371/journal.pgen.1007098[Butt One More Thing]Dormant butt syndrome:https://wexnermedical.osu.edu/blog/your-dormant-butt-might-be-to-blame-for-knee-hip-or-back-pain
