Billy, Joey, and Nick dive into a viral story about a young woman who awoke from a medically induced coma believing she had lived an entire life while unconscious—complete with a husband and triplets. Upon waking, she was devastated to discover that none of it was real.
The SWAB crew explores what happens scientifically during a coma, what medical experts say about consciousness and memory, and how the brain can create vivid realities during altered states. They also discuss the similarities between coma experiences and the intense dreams many people remember after deep sleep.
