IRL I was listening to WPR before I woke up. Because it's election day, they wanted to do their morning segments with lighthearted apolitical subject matter. I slept through the first hour, but in their second hour they were discussing TV shows from the past (their guest was some man who wrote a book on the topic). The host was asking questions, prompting listeners to call in, "what TV shows do you remember as a kid? What were your favorites? What shows do you think were the most influential?" In my dream state, I was in a classroom-like setting and was trying to answer these questions and raising my hand, but the "teacher" (Joy the WPR host) never called on me. I've had dreams like this before when a question is posed on the radio, I formulate an answer in my semi-unconscious state, I try to answer, but they never let me answer and go on to a caller instead.

I also had a dream I was in a hotel that was sort of new like a Super Comfort Days Inn type architecture, but when I got inside there was something very old fashioned mom and pop motel about the architecture, like they had reconverted it somehow. Sort of hard to explain.
