Episode 350: Trouble Sleeping: Spend less time in Bed?
In episode 350, Mike and James talk about the evidence around sleep restriction.

At the end of the podcast, James realises that Mike presented the evidence while being fast asleep – showing that the concept of sleep restriction actually works.
