Sneezes, Mental Illness, & TJ's Quitters
02/06/24 • 56 min
Today we explore Brain Candy episodes 59 and 60 and all the wildness therein. We discuss whether Sarah has bipolar symptoms and why she thinks the DSM is a buncha malarkey. Susie explains why drunk driving and mental illness are similar. We reexamine a clip of TJ where he justified his condemnation of quitters, and whether we still disagree with him. Susie explains why she no longer enjoys "political comedy." We hear a clip of astrophysicist Adam Frank share why the vastness of the universe gives him peace, and why Sarah doesn't get it.

Previous Episode
Haunted Challenge House, Ozempic Oprah, & Body Positivity
We're back with more things we got wrong! We discuss 2023 and whether we made any mistakes last year and what we learned. Sarah is preparing for her surgery and we talk about the madness of medicine and how it all feels like wizardry. We are looking back at an episode of Brain Candy with Adam Butler (Susie's husband) as a guest. We discuss how his role on reality tv production poses interesting ethical questions and shows why some people choose not to intervene during emergencies or crises. We also talk about a body positivity episode of BCP and how Sarah feels differently about her body now, and she explains what caused the shift. We discuss Oprah's about face on Ozempic and why celebrities who aren't honest about medical interventions for weight loss and plastic surgery can make things harder for the rest of us.

Next Episode
Weaves, Wes, and Washing Jeans
Today we're discussing Brain Candy episodes 61 and 62, which covered hair and a mid-season discussion of Rivals 3. First Sarah shares what she got wrong about weaves and her regrets about encouraging Devyn to wear her natural hair for the final because the weave would be an encumbrance to their victory. We discuss the stigma of hair plugs for men and Susie makes the argument that a lot of cosmetic procedures would fall under the category of "gender-affirming care." We hear why Sarah felt she "lost herself" in her marriage, and why she approaches relationships differently now. We learn the science behind washing your jeans and whether it is safe to wear them without washing them for long periods.
