Summary
Katie Couric had a wild day in Aspen when she suddenly blacked out—literally losing all memory of several hours, including her own panel at the Aspen Ideas Festival. Her husband noticed something was off, and they ended up at the hospital where stroke protocol was even initiated. Turns out, it was transient global amnesia: a bizarre, temporary memory blackout. Doctors confirmed it wasn’t a stroke or epilepsy, and an MRI was clear—relief all around. Though she’s fine, those hours are now permanently erased, leaving her to wonder how her brain just… forgot.
