778: Pleasure, Wildflowers, & No Boys Allowed
01/15/24 • 57 min
Sarah explains the difference between pleasure and enjoyment and why she's hoping for way more of the latter this year. Sarah has inexplicably started using baby language and Susie thinks she needs a pet--cat lady coming through. We discuss the benefits and downfalls of "gendered" spaces and whether there is a need for a male and female exclusive activities including for universities and organizations or if it should be a free-for-all. Hear why wildflowers are getting freaky with themselves and aren't relying on pollination from our insect friends. We're happy to report Sarah has stopped stealing flowers and now she's expanded her "leave no trace" philosophy to her beloved past time of seashell collecting (hoarding).

777: One Hit Wonder, NASA's Worm, & The Dingo Took My Baby
Susie is still deciding on her 2024 theme, but she does have some goals picked, and they are hilarious. Let's just say she is doing some serious research about one hit wonders, and has some big musical plans. We discuss the cultural phenomenon of the "dingo took my baby," where it came from, and what it really meant. Turns out that global joke came from a tragic story that kept getting worse the more we learned. We hear about a decades old murder that shows how racism and one man's lie had huge consequences throughout Boston and almost prevented justice. We discuss the history of NASA's logo, and why their real logo isn't the one you see on merch. We talk about how hearing aids need a redesign and Susie has some awkward questions about Jimmy Carter and people who are nearing the end of life. Sarah's tech bro pal who wants to be forever young is on the dating scene and if you see him on Tinder, run for your life. A Senate staffer got caught doing the nasty in a the judiciary committed hearing room and we cannot believe what some people put on their Instagram close friends after watching the footage.

779: Wonderful Things, Hell Camp, & Party Animals
We find out how Sarah's "stretching" theme is going so far, and Susie annouces her 2024 theme at long last, and it's a goodie! We learn how Sarah provided the opportunity for Susie to test the theme for the first time. We discuss the "reform" camps people were sending their delinquent children to in the 80s and 90s, and debate whether the people who ran them had good intentions or not. We learn how some people don't have a "mind's ear" and how scientists are able to test for it. We discuss why some people claim to dream in black-and-white, and what might be causing it. Yoga instructors are getting special training and it involves dead bodies, and Susie is worked up about it. Hear the history of Subaru's association with lesbians and why it was no accident. We learn whether animals like doing drugs as much as people, and what drugs provide despite the ways they are bad for your survival.
