BEAUTY

While some scars are sexy, we’d prefer that most cuts—from a small scratch on your chin to incisions made for major surgery—simply disappear as they heal. Many do—and a subset of them don’t. There’s unfortunately little rhyme or reason to why one injury scars, another scars badly, and the other leaves no evidence of ever having been there—says top plastic surgeon Steven Teitelbaum, M.D. Associate Clinical Professor of Plastic Surgery at the UCLA School of Medicine, and president of the California Society of Plastic Surgeons. Here, he walks us through what can and can’t be done—from in-office procedures to at-home remedies—and how to know when to call in a plastic surgeon. — http://goop.com/beauty/skin/how-to-heal-a-scar/

GOOP SCOOP: GOOP GETS ACCUSED OF DECEPTIVE HEALTH CLAIMS

The watchdog group Truth in Advertising wants Goop, the lifestyle website started by actress Gwyneth Paltrow, to stop making what it calls “unsubstantiated” and “deceptive” advertising claims for some of the health and wellness products it sells. And it filed a formal complaint last week asking authorities in California to force the company to do that.

GO: GO TO A HEALER????

LIST INCLUDES: -Intuitives and Coaches -Healers (Of All Kinds) -Mediums

POD RECOMMENDATION: Watch Penn and Teller’s Bullshit about Psychics available on Vimeo

GET: Get a Spirit Animal

One of the requests we field the most is recommendations for good healers—of all varieties. Below, you’ll find a rolodex of our favorite energy workers, intuitives, and mediums—individuals who are supremely gifted at moving, reading, and accessing energy, whether it’s in our bodies or from the other side. (Stay tuned for more on psi phenomena and consciousness, coming soon on goop.) One important thing to note about rates: Typically, gifted healers charge anywhere from $150 to $300 for a session, despite having quite long waitlists. Be wary of anyone who seems astronomically expensive or extortionist. While everyone needs to pay their bills, and reading requires an inordinate amount of energy, the prevailing sentiment seems to be that the gift departs when healers don’t move forward with integrity. — http://goop.com/city-guide/the-guide-to-energy-healers-intuitives-mediums/

_____________________________________________________________________________

Goop has Sprint Animal Rings that cost $2,400. I’m not surprised. I really, really wish I was.

POD PICK: Find your patronus instead. Go to Pottermore and find your patronus, it’s free and it hold

just as much weight as a spirit animal.

MAKE: SUSHI NORI SALAD ROLLS from EP. 5

Nick did not make these, instead he made Ginger Sesame Chicken Noodle Pots (Nick recommends using carrots instead of the noodles!)

Episode 1 "Pilot or, are we Gwen's friends?"

The Goop Pod

06/09/17 • 99 min

Here we are, the very first episode of The Goop Pod. The Pilot if you were, or, as Nick so casually asks: "Are we Gwen's friends?" (Sadly, probably not).

First, Liz & Nick deserve a round of applause. After tossing around the idea for a podcast for probably almost a decade we have actually sat down and recorded something. Is it good? eh, we'll let the 10s of listeners out there decide.

Now we get into it.....

What are we drinking?

As you can see from the photo above, Liz & Nick are drinking a Bellinies. Liz has pared a SOMETHING with a pre-chilled Proseco, and generously served them in a glass that could probably be described as a fishbowl with a stem.

As a bonus, we are eating a danish, which Nick forgot about and you can hear him realize he forgot about, and subsequently run and get without pausing the recording (or bothering to edit it out.) Additionally, if you listen carefully, you may hear him occasionally chew on said danish. (Sorry).

Go.

Goop.com's Go section features hotels, experiences, eateries, and cultural things to do in a number of places. Sadly, our home of Milwaukee is not featured. So, Liz & Nick discuss Chicago. Specifically, we discuss the Culture aspects.

Paltrow's Picks:

Usually, Liz & Nick hand select (with care) the craziest of things for our enjoyment. Sadly, this section is lacking so we had to take all three goop selected. Yes, only three. And spoiler, they're pretty basic.

The Second City
Art Institute Chicago
Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago

All are fine, but pretty basic.

Pod Picks:

Many are free or low cost. Pod Tip: For Improv Olympics, Thirsty, or shows of the sort, call the day off and ask if there are discounts / door specials. Oftentimes smaller venues offer these discounts to fill up the last seats int he house!

Get.

Fancy Fabreeze. Okay, they don't really call it this, instead it's called the Interior Aromatic. It Costs $45.00 for 16 oz.

Yes. $45.00 for 16 oz. For comparison, that costs about 4.7 times as much as a regular 16 oz bottle of Fabreze which is really what this stuff is.

Here's the description directly from goop.

Sandoval
INTERIOR AROMATIC - WOOD
$45.00
This home spray—mist it in the air, freshen sheets, sofa pillows, scarves, blankets, even the inside of your car—is made with cedar, sandalwood, oakmoss, and vetiver essential oils, which combine grounding, stimulating, and aphrodisiac properties. It’s subtly incredible on its own—it can instantly change the whole energy of space—or equally fantastic combined with other Sandoval sprays, to create a signature home scent. A rose quartz crystal, charged in the full moon, comes in each bottle, for even more energy-improving atmosphere. — https://shop.goop.com/shop/products/interior-aromatic-wood?taxon_id=97

Did you notice anything crazy? Let's call it out if you missed it: A rose quartz crystal, charged int he full moon, comes in each bottle, for even more energy-improving atmosphere.

Liz & Nick surmise that there is a single quartz crystal plopped in the bottle. Which probably is why this thing is $45.

We also wanted to know more about this process. We discuss it in the podcast and encourage you to check out this site to learn more about the process.

Make, DIY Challenge!

Liz & Nick will be making a Spiced Carrot Soup. Which, we hope will be quite good!

From goop.com

This easy carrot soup has just enough heat from Serrano chili, warmth from cumin and cinnamon, and brightness from fresh lime juice. Serve with bread and a simple salad for a quick and satisfying lunch or dinner any time of year.

We'll report back on this in a latter episode.
