The Dreamer’s Paradox with Katherine Bell

Katherine speaks about her ideas about approaching dreams as a kind of treasure hunt and what she calls the Dreamer’s Paradox. After the break we take a comment from engineer Rick Kleffel saying that his favorite author Alan Moore often gets inspiration from his dreams. We are then joined by Steven E. Popp, host of KSQD’s “In The Garden” show, who comes on the air and tells us about a dream in which a huge feline, a cross between a lion and tiger, wreaks great havoc.
