## Resource

This week on the show, we're counting down the top five moments of the week, and it's a doozy. From a shocking blunder on the popular reality show Survivor to a hilarious story about a talkbacker's adventures in the Azores, we've got it all. But first, we're talking about the Jonas Brothers' new podcast, where they're asking listeners to call in and ask them anything. Our hosts are inspired by the idea and start brainstorming questions to ask the brothers, including who would win in a fight between two of their friends. In this episode, we're also diving into the world of dreams, where our hosts share their own bizarre and fascinating stories about what they've experienced in their sleep. From a listener who had a premonition about a tragic event to a host who's been having recurring dreams about being chased, we're exploring the mysteries of the subconscious. And if you're a fan of true crime, you won't want to miss our discussion about the biggest cheating scandal in the history of chess. But that's not all - we're also counting down the top five moments of the week, including a shocking blunder on Survivor and a hilarious story about a talkbacker's adventures in the Azores. And if you're a fan of books, you'll love our conversation about a new book that's coming out soon. So grab a cup of coffee, get comfortable, and get ready to dive into the best of the week. Want to hear more about these stories and the rest of the top five moments of the week? Tune in to this episode to hear the rest of the countdown, plus our hosts' hilarious reactions to a talkbacker's crazy adventures and a discussion about the power of dreams.
