Can you imagine sleeping through your birthday? Or Christmas? How about Halloween? Although it shares its name with a beloved princess, Sleeping Beauty Syndrome is nothing to dream about. Officially known as Kleine-Levin Syndrome, this rare neurological disorder results in episodes where patients sleep for 17-20 hours a day, for weeks at a time. The time spent awake isn't productive, because the patient is often in a sleepwalking-like state and has regressed to childlike behavior, and, at the conclusion of the episode, has no recollection that anything abnormal has happened.
In this clip from "The Jeff Probst Show," Jeff meets Nicole, a young woman with Sleeping Beauty Syndrome, who shares, along with her parents, the toll this condition takes on their family.

Forty percent of Americans confess to regularly visiting pornographic web sites, and according to internet entrepreneur Cindy Gallop, it's changing the way we're having sex, and not necessarily for the better. In this clip from "The Jeff Probst Show," Cindy says that "99.9% of all mainstream porn is made by men for men. As a result, we now have an entire generation of guys and girls growing up believing that the be-all end-all of sex is to get the man off. That is not good for women."
Cindy, though, is doing something about it. She goes on to tell Jeff about her project to create a destination that provides a counterpoint to pornography. The resulting website, according to Cindy, "posts the myths of hard core porn, and balances them with the reality."
