The Jung and the Restless

Whoops! The Dream Team is behind schedule this week (blame Zach). Look out for a new 'sode coming out soon, but in the meantime enjoy this re-run from July of 2023. Description: Victor and Olivia are on vacation, so Zach takes control of the show and plays clips from their early recording sessions. Most of them involve spiders and children, but the crown jewel is a wedding dream that almost got lo...

Victor makes Zach uncomfortable with a story about a reincarnated saucier, maybe because Zach is a ghost baby himself. The Dream Team is having trouble keeping up with their dream journals. Olivia has a fourth but probably not final rooster dream and, spoiler alert, everyone is still stumped. Someone call in and help them! 530-JUNGPOD.   0:00 Intro/Mushroom Chef 10:14 Ghost Babies 19:53 Remember Y...

Zach is fighting loneliness with birdwatching and performative self-care. Is he okay? The Dream Team talks about addictive content for babies and skips over a conversation about politics. Olivia has yet another rooster dream and the mystery continues. Victor read a page of Carl Jung before falling asleep and tells us what he learned.   0:00 Intro 13:19 Lonliness and Birdwatching 20:57 Child Brainw...

Big news! You can now submit your dreams for interpretation, or just yap at the Dream Team, by calling 530-JUNGPOD. In this 'sode, Vic, Liv, and Zach revisit sleep paralysis, exploding head syndrome, and mansplaining before diving into a listener dream submission from Claire. Starting with a car symbol, Claire's haunting couple of dreams explore control, masking, precognition, AND seem to mirror a...

Zach is hanging on by a thread. Victor likes spreadsheets. Olivia has a second rooster dream, this time featuring an unfunny billionaire. The Dream Team collectively runs out of steam trying to get to the bottom of it. Sometimes that's how episodes end.   0:59 Sleep Debt 9:25 Fartiest Fart 11:25 Recap: Last Rooster Dream 15:09 New Rooster Dream 28:51 Gestalt 44:48 Last Ditch Effort to Crack it   F...

The Dream Team discusses neurodivergence at Dave and Busters before getting into Zach's Dave and Busters for nearly an hour.

RIP, Indie. The Dream Team discusses the St. Patrick's Day that passed them by, as well as food dyes and other chemical compounds. Mad Hatter's disease isn't fair, let's bring it back.

Let's get into something real.    0:34 Green Dye and Haberdashery 15:54 Real Stuff: Animal Communication 39:46 Olivia's...

Zach, philosopher, asks what would happen if you got electrocuted with cocaine in your butt. Olivia wants to train her dog to sniff out cadavers, once again limiting Victor's options in case he ever needs to murder anyone (married life, sigh). Zach comes in hot and slightly manic with a cinematic dream he hopes to break into a movie idea, but instead breaks into his own unhealthy thought patterns...

The Dream Team discusses babies and the people who hate them, reminiscing about being laughed at as babies themselves. Zach is single once again. Victor completes the poop trifecta. Olivia becomes an old person. After lengthy sideroads through cultish former employers and therapy techniques that sound like club drugs, the Dream Team eventually gets into a Victor dream about an old ship serving as...

RIP, David Lynch. The baby is AWAKE. Zach and Victor vamp about tipping anxiety and Zach's weird self-esteem while Olivia, running on a sleep deficit, attempts to put the baby to bed without misplacing her. The silver lining of only sleeping an hour at a time, however, is that Olivia has multiple dreams to share! The Dream Team laughs about a dirty man named Frank with a roadside reptile zoo befor...

An all-around barrel of laughs. The Dream Team talks about biohacking depression via laughing yoga, which leads seamlessly into Zach's dream about Comedy Jesus and the perfect joke.

Zach tells a dreamlike story of how he acquired a new area rug, and somehow this conversation turns to poop. Predictable. On a less predictable note, Victor shares a lucid dream. Is there a little guy living in your mind, pulling levers and pushing buttons to keep you from veering off the tracks of your dreams? These are the kinds of questions we ask here at TJAR.   About Dream Bible: Dream Bible...

Tune in next time for a brand new episode of TJAR, and in the meantime we hope you will enjoy one of our silliest episodes on the books, originally aired april of 2023.

The Dream Team discusses routines. Zach is afraid of pitbulls while Victor wants to arm them. Victor tells us about declassified CIA dream experiments. Zach tells us about his new Italian identity, as well as his abandoned cowboy identity, Jessie. Jessie also happens to be the name of the rugby-ball-toting cousin in Olivia's dream about a family reunion, with whom she might have a scandalous conne...

The Dream Team discusses open mics, strange occurrences at work, the 80/20 of storytelling, and the 50/50 of life.

Zach has a funeral anecdote. The Dream Team discusses aliens and UFOs for a while before getting into Olivia's dream about being attacked by a mysterious redheaded woman's oafish henchman, uncovering a thread through three of Olivia's recent dreams involving an inability to retrieve a diaper bag. What does the diaper bag represent? What is your inner diaper bag? And can it be found through mindful...

A friend shares a potentially prophetic dream in which a famous country musician meets his untimely demise… Tyler Childers, are you okay?

Olivia rescues a rooster. Factory farming is dark, but on a lighter note, how about cults and silver poisoning?

Happy Spooky Season! The Dream talks horror films, getting scared, and yelling at people from cars. Victor has a dream, seemingly a follow-up to his last one, involving coffin relocation and a song about the Satanic dangers of theme parks. Looks like Olivia will have to do all the legwork to get Victor in therapy. Whatever happened to doomsday clocks? Zach's bringing them back. July 16th, 2028: Ma...

Olivia finds out she's the cry-at-weddings type. Zach would rather film a wedding than attend one, but cries nevertheless. He has a dream closing the book on a toxic relationship.

Update on Zach's poltergeist situation, the haunting continues. Olivia shares a dream involving a vast expanse of endless trampolines, a "dream business", and sitting her bare ass in hot soup. The Dream Team is a little stumped with this one, but the gestalt method sheds a glimmer of creepy light on the situation. Also, don't be that guy who brings a guitar to a party.

In episode 69 (nice), the Dream Team gets all up in the guts of a hero's journey of a dream from Zach. But first, they get into human development, animal communication, and paranormal cleansing.
