This week, Shane is talking with Dr. Zlatan Križan, Professor of Psychology at Iowa State University, and Barrett Klein, Professor of Biology at UW-La Crosse who are meeting for the first time to film this incredible episode that crosses both their fields of research.

Dr. Križan directs the Sleep, Self, and Personality Laboratory (SSPeL) that examines how sleep and personality intersect with social behavior and self-regulation.

Barrett Klein is the head of The PUPATING LAB is where he studies insect behavior, sleep biology, and explore the ways in which insects have affected humans throughout history.

In the full episode they quantify sleeping, dreaming, and their causes. They discuss sleep across different species, as well as how much sleep humans need, and how we can get the most out it!
