Welcome to the Sleep Unplugged podcast, the podcast where we wake up the science of sleep.

Hosted by neurologist, sleep specialist, and author Dr. Chris Winter, Sleep Unplugged is your no-fluff guide to understanding sleep—why it matters, how it works, and what we often get wrong about it. Each episode dives into the science behind sleep disorders, common myths, and the cultural quirks that keep us tossing and turning. Whether you’re battling insomnia, trying to decode your kid’s sleep schedule, or just curious about the neuroscience of dreams, this podcast is for you. Expect evidence-based insights, relatable stories, the occasional dad joke and bit of music trivia, and a steady refusal to sell you a magic pillow. Sleep Unplugged is where medicine meets metaphor, and where complex topics are untangled with clarity, humor, and a deep respect for the mysterious third of our lives we spend asleep. Hit play, and let’s unplug the noise around sleep—together.
