episode 6: Reflections on REM and Nightmares
Inspired by the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode "Night Terrors," Melinda and Aaron reflect on "REM," and its influence in all our lives. REM can mean so many things, the possibilities are almost endless. The discussion moves from R.E.M. the band, Freud and Jung dream theories, Neil Gaiman's Sandman comics, Flatliners, Dreamscape, A Nightmare on Elm Street (Parts 1 and 3), and The X-Files episode, "Sleepless."
