Nice opening John:) John, remember I did say if the dream is terrifying enough it could cause a heart attack. Especially if the dream seems real. I never realized the similarity between the Matrix and Dreamscape either. LOL ‘Have a heart’ would be something Freddie Krueger would say. I thought Norm!!! too and the bar setting was so fitting. Wait a minute, Reagan couldn’t have had nightmares. He never remembered anything. If you recall during the Iran-Contra affair he said “I do not recall” 52 times. I thought Dennis Quaid was pretty good in ‘Postcards from the Edge’ and ‘DragonHeart.’ I think Joaquin Phoenix plays a pretty good villain too. If you recall his role in Gladiator. I think he did a great job as Commodus. Great Podcast guys.
