073 - Sleep Science: What Actually Matters

Not that long ago, it was considered a badge of honor to "hustle" or "grind" off of only four or five hours of sleep a night. Thankfully, we've come to a better understanding of the importance and value of a good night's sleep—maybe too much so, however. Sleep has become the latest obsession among the optimization set, with an entire cottage industry of supplements, gadgets, and trackers meant to help us get some high-quality shuteye. But this fixation is providing as much anxiety as rest. Today, Steve and Clay break down the myths, realities, and science of good sleep. Plus: they react to a clip from an upcoming Netflix documentary about New York Jets' quarterback Aaron Rodgers.
