Podcasts about candid conversations

Susie's shirt sparked a whole conversation about Ayn Rand, red flag books, Catcher in the Rye, incels, back-to-school hauls, PacSun jeans, the great jeans/genes scandal, and Lauren Sanchez. And none of it was planned. So buckle up. We debate whether/how we can regulate adult content online to limit its exposure to children without compromising free speech and ushering in a surveillance state, and well, we get nowhere. We find out about a UK drug lord whose undoing came from an unlikely informant, and it taught us why you should never trust someone with an unusual pet. We learn how much birds are pooping, and we're not ok. And scientists found out which type of music mosquitoes hate, and let's just say Susie feels vindicated.Brain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:Cancel your unwanted subscriptions and reach your financial goals faster at https://rocketmoney.com/braincandy today.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Susie found out that the lesbian community has a real affinity for fingers, and she might have what they're looking for, but she wonders if the gays are keeping secrets about their romantic ways. We learn about a man who announced his intention to do assisted suicide, but asked people to invite him to dinner beforehand. We find out how his dinner tour is going, why mental health experts are not impressed with him, and why he might abandon his original plan. We discuss an all-women commune and find out why they forbid men, how they arrange their community, and why it's so popular. Susie talks about the new documentary about the Yogurt Shop Murders, and how the film shows the ripple effect of violent crime in families and communities, and why it extends beyond crimes's victims.

This week on Let's Try This Again, I'm in sunny LA with the hilarious and inspiring KevOnStage! We go deep on what it really means to have character, integrity, and a long-lasting relationship—Kev shares priceless lessons from 25 years with his wife Melissa, his unwavering devotion to his family, and the heartbreak and healing that shaped him after losing his brother. We laugh about the realities of working in entertainment, the importance of not living for money or outside validation, and how to choose partners (and friends) based on real character, values, and how they treat others over time—not just first impressions. Kev opens up about how his faith has evolved, why he refuses to perform perfection, and how being truly seen and supported by his wife has been his greatest treasure through career highs, loss, and the mundane daily dance of life. We also dive into how to navigate the messy middle of progress, what spiritual growth looks like in real life (not just on Instagram), and the power of being honest about where you are while letting yourself grow in public.Ready to take your growth, healing, and community to the next level?

We are super excited to announce our very first live event in Denver on October 30! We discuss all the details of what we have planned for our inaugural IRL Brain Candy event! (get tickets here!). We discuss the bizarro world of Labubu and try to figure out why people are losing their minds for them. We hear why Sarah will forever chase the high of her best Goodwill score. We learn the history of the cover song and debate the best ones (and which might even be better than the original). Susie has to teach Sarah about Pat Boone. And we learn why Sarah thinks ADHD people love Trader Joe's, why she wants to take Susie on a field trip there, and what it is about the store that gets her motor running.Brain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:Save 20% Off Honeylove by going to https://www.honeylove.com/braincandy #honeylovepodVisit https://shopbeam.com/BRAINCANDY and use code BRAINCANDY to get our exclusive discount of up to 50% off.Get 60% off your first Smalls order PLUS free shipping when you head to https://www.smalls.com/braincandyHead to https://cozyearth.com and use my code BRAINCANDY for 40% off!

🎉🎉 THANK YOU FOR 12 YEARS OF THE PODCAST!!!

Susie has an update on her cat situation, and Sarah is learning more than she ever wanted to know about cat cafes. We debate the cake smash tradition at weddings, and we hear why the more violent and abusive examples of this are going viral on TikTok. And we consider why men resort to this aggressive ritual even when they're humiliating or hurting the bride. We learn about a group of shark bite survivors who have formed a community to help each other with side effects both physical and emotional, and we discuss the human urge to connect. Amanda Knox wrote a piece on why we shouldn't call people "evil," and how this does a disservice to victims of violent crimes. And we learn some surprising effects your first name can have on your life.Brain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:Go to https://paireyewear.com and use code BCP for 15% off your first pair.

We have a new Brain Candy seal of approval, inspired by Sarah, created by Adam, and loved by all. Pay attention to our approvals with our new device. We wonder why the Twinkie never left despite threats that they were discontinuing their production of the food (???). We learn the origin of Pac-Man, why the game was revolutionary, and what makes us love it still. We talk about the strange success of the sporting goods story, Dicks, and how Sarah thought Dick divorced someone and she had a spinoff store called Chicks. We debate AI for therapy, wellness, and friendship, and share what we think people should do instead (and it involves, you know, talking to actual people). We learn about the new Shiny Happy People season, but it turns out, Susie's up to speed, since she was a participant in evangelical churches in the 90s.Brain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:For 50% off your order, head to https://www.dailylook.com and use code BRAINCANDYSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Summary In this candid live-stream conversation, Andy chats with content creator and project leader Stuart Taylor, the mind behind the Influential PMO platform and the Stuart Taylor Project YouTube channel. They dig into the difference between influencers and thought leaders, how to choose topics that genuinely help practitioners, and what to do when metrics don't match the effort. Stuart shares practical strategies for building professional visibility on LinkedIn and YouTube, including how to craft resonant messages, handle trolls, and focus on service over self-promotion. The discussion also explores Stuart's experiment asking whether AI could manage a project. Spoiler: AI is a strong team member for first drafts and research, but a weak project manager. They wrap with career advice for today's shifting job market, including why to think like an internal consultant and how to future-proof your career by learning in public. If you're looking for insights on personal branding, creator tactics, and AI's real role in project work, this episode is for you! Sound Bites Regarding AI: "It cannot be the project manager. It's spineless. It is a weakling leader." "There is no such thing as a permanent job anymore." “Share what you know and people will be drawn to you for what you are sharing.” “Learn to make a resonating message. Learn how to share value.” “I never did this to become internet famous… What problem do I want to solve? That's it.” “Because you don't understand how the algorithm works. You think your whole network's ignoring you, and in fact, all that's happened is maybe less than 10% of your network has seen the message before the algorithm realized that your message wasn't resonating.” “It will be the penny pinching execs who want to save a few dollars, who will take your job, and they'll replace it with a machine that can do 50% of your job for a fraction of your price, and they'll live with the 50% they can't do.” Chapters 00:00 Start of Live Stream 02:13 Thoughts on Influencers and Thought Leaders 05:28 Deciding on Video Content 07:34 Views and Metrics 14:41 The Creative Process and Challenges 18:28 Sharing Knowledge and Building a Community 18:49 Navigating Social Media: The Good, The Bad, and The Trolls 19:18 Handling Criticism and Building Connections 24:37 The Role of AI in Project Management 29:10 The Future of Work: AI, Automation, and Adaptation 36:24 Staying Curious and Embracing Change Learn More You can learn more about Stuart and his work here: LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/skt Website: InfluentialPMO.com YouTube: Stuart Taylor Project Thank you for joining me for this episode of The People and Projects Podcast!

In this episode of Grieving Out Loud, we sit down for a one-on-one conversation with a man who's spent decades on the front lines of the United States' battle against illicit drugs and overdose deaths. Derek Maltz, who recently served as acting administrator of the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), built a nearly 30-year career as a special agent. He also led the New York Drug Enforcement Task Force—the nation's oldest and largest.Maltz opens up about why the fentanyl crisis has become so personal to him, what he believes must happen to stop the mass poisoning of Americans, and the critical missteps that have allowed the epidemic to grow.Listen to Episode 120 of Grieving Out Loud with April Babcock: https://emilyshope.charity/episode/april-babcock/If you enjoyed this episode, you may like this one with Art Kleinschmidt, the former Deputy Director of the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy: https://emilyshope.charity/episode/arthur-kleinschmidt/Send us a textThe Emily's Hope Substance Use Prevention Curriculum has been carefully designed to address growing concerns surrounding substance use and overdose in our communities.

What do you do after running 2:05 at the Boston Marathon? If you're Conner Mantz, you get back to work.The American half-marathon record holder (59:17 in Houston) and the fastest American ever on Boston's storied marathon course (2:05:08) is locked in on Chicago this fall.Earlier in 2024, Conner made his Olympic debut in Paris, where he delivered a gutsy, top-10 finish in brutal conditions—proving he belongs on the biggest stage in the sport. Coached by Ed Eyestone and training at altitude in Provo, Utah, Conner is building toward another breakthrough. His summer block has been quietly brutal: long progressive runs that close near race pace, back-to-back workouts with tight recovery windows, and high-volume consistency that only a few can handle.Before turning pro in late 2021, Conner was one of the most dominant collegiate runners of his generation. At BYU, he won back-to-back NCAA cross country individual titles and helped lead the Cougars to national team glory in 2019. That grit, that consistency, and that team-first mindset still drive him today.His resume speaks for itself: he's run 59:17 in the half marathon, 2:05:08 in the marathon (Boston 2025), 27:26 in the 10,000m on the road (Beach to Beacon 2025; Course Record), 13:11.48 in the 5,000m on the track, and 3:37.96 in the 1,500m on the track.This isn't just about chasing the edge of human performance. It's about building a career—not just off talent—but off intention, consistency, and belief.In today's conversation, Conner dives deep into his training and preparation for his American Record attempt at the Chicago Marathon on October 12th, 2025. Tap into the Conner Mantz Special.  If you enjoy the podcast, please consider following us on Spotify and Apple Podcasts and giving us a five-star review! I would also appreciate it if you share it with your friend who you think will benefit from it. Comment the word “PODCAST” below and I'll DM you a link to listen. If this episode blesses you, please share it with a friend!S H O W  N O T E S-The Run Down By The Running Effect (our new newsletter!): https://tinyurl.com/mr36s9rs-BUY MERCH BEFORE IT'S GONE: https://shop.therunningeffect.run-Our Website: https://therunningeffect.run -THE PODCAST ON YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClLcLIDAqmJBTHeyWJx_wFQ-My Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/therunningeffect/?hl=en⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠-Take our podcast survey: https://tinyurl.com/3ua62ffz

We're fresh off the heals of our Colorado Rocky Mountain high, and we are still recovering. Susie talks about a man who read 3,599 books in his lifetime and kept an adorable handwritten list of them that is now available to all of us. A zoo wants you to know that if you have any "unwanted" pets that they'll take them off your hands and feed them to their predators, which is weird? A doctor might've killed a patient through music, and we think it's sad, but also the game he was playing sounds really fun. We hear why lots of people are getting their teeth fixed in Mexico, and Susie rants about insane reasons why our teeth aren't included on our healthcare plans, the reason dental insurance is the opposite of health insurance, and she wants to know why we have silent cars, but not silent dental drills.Brain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:Get 25% off your first month of Ritual when you visit https://ritual.com/braincandy & add Essential Protein today!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Sarah talks about a couple who started their own surrogacy company, but then just used it as a cover for them to have 21 children, and now authorities are investigating how they were able to get away with this insanity for so long. We learn that some families are more likely to produce boys vs girls or vice versa, and that the men in the family (well, the sperm) are the part of the equation that influences the sex of a person. And we discuss the eight babies born in the UK with three biological parents and how the combination allows children to overcome a genetic abnormality that would likely happen if they only had two biological parents. And despite this great news, Susie sees some trouble up ahead by having three people have a genetic link (and custodial right?) to a single child. The company that "brought" back an extinct wolf is at it again, and we think they're up to no good. But more importantly, why are we saying more than one goose is geese, but more than one moose isn't meese? Huh? Riddle me that.Read this week's Newsletter: https://mailchi.mp/thebraincandypodcast/933-934Brain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:Cancel your unwanted subscriptions and reach your financial goals faster at https://rocketmoney.com/braincandy today.Save 20% Off Honeylove by going to https://www.honeylove.com/braincandy #honeylovepodFor 20% off your order, head to https://reliefband.com and use code BRAINCANDYHead to https://cozyearth.com and use my code BRAINCANDY for 40% off!

On this week's Stansberry Investor Hour, Dan and Corey welcome Dr. David "Doc" Eifrig back to the show. Doc is the new permanent CEO of Stansberry Research's parent company MarketWise, as well as the editor of five newsletters at Stansberry and a member of the Investment Committee for Stansberry Portfolio Solutions.  Doc kicks off the show by asking Dan about his recent river cruise vacation on the Mississippi River and sharing stories about his own trip to Lisbon, Portugal a few weeks ago. This leads to a conversation about Doc and Dan's first meeting in 2007 and how Dan was a "diligence check" for Doc joining Stansberry in the first place. Doc also talks about his permanent appointment as MarketWise CEO after almost a year holding the interim role. (0:46) Next, Doc discusses the financial-newsletter industry and what sets Stansberry apart in this era where anyone can self-publish content – including free content and AI-generated content. "I want us to be known as a trusted source," he notes. As Doc emphasizes, Stansberry is good at finding talented analysts who work hard, know their stuff, and can meet deadlines. He also looks back on the company since its "disaster" going public, previous leadership that didn't respect the company's history, and what has mattered most to him since becoming CEO. (23:57) Finally, Doc explains that caring about what you're doing and the experience you want to give is the most important thing in business. He gives shout-outs to several folks at MarketWise who are doing just this, from Stansberry's Executive Editor Carli Flippen overseeing everything that gets published, to the marketing team and copywriters who care about the customers more than making a sale.

You can also listen to the episode here: https://thebraincandypodcast.com/episode/933Susie's Chili's is back after a two year closure due to fire, and she's finally got her baby back. And we learn the reason she is obsessed with the fast casual restaurant chain in the first place, and how it relates to her time on reality tv. We hear the follow-up on a man who jumped off a Disney cruise ship to save his daughter who fell off the boat, and we cheer on dads doing superhero shit. We learn about some people who, after decades of severe schizophrenia, have made complete recoveries after receiving treatment for a separate disease, which is showing doctors that there might be more at play than just a mental illness in the first place. And we learn the fascinating downsides to going back to "normal" after living with mental illness. Susie tells the story of a pediatrician who accidentally killed his toddler son, how he channeled his pain into saving lives, and why workaholism can be a powerful tool for people struggling with grief.DON'T MISS LIVE TRIVIA NIGHT: https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsFollow Susie on Instagram,it's a laugh a minute: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterBrain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:Get $10 off your first month's subscription and free shipping when you go to https://nutrafol.com and enter the promo code BRAINCANDYThis episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.

In this powerful episode, I'm joined by Dr. Bruce Chalmer—psychologist, author, and podcast host—for an in-depth discussion about betrayal, forgiveness, and the path to healing. Dr. Chalmer shares his deeply personal journey from pain to purpose, what drew him into clinical work with couples, and why betrayal demands a very different approach to healing. We talk about the distinction between guilt and shame, the stages of rebuilding trust, and how forgiveness is truly an inside job. If you've ever struggled with whether to stay, how to heal, or what it really takes to move forward, this episode will speak directly to your heart.  What You'll Learn:  Why betrayal is not just a relational rupture but a nervous system shock  How Dr. Chalmer's personal experience shaped his work with couples  The misunderstood difference between guilt and shame  Why forgiveness is about releasing pain—not condoning behavior  What it really means to rebuild something better than before  The two-way nature of trust and how both partners play a role in restoring it  The unexpected gifts that can emerge from betrayal  Resources & Mentions:  Dr. Bruce Chalmer's site: www.brucechalmer.com  “Couples Therapy in Seven Words” Podcast  Trust Again by Dr. Debi Silber  The 5 Stages from Betrayal to Breakthrough® framework  Reclaim-for the betrayed: https://thepbtinstitute.com/reclaim/  Rebuild-for the betrayer: https://thepbtinstitute.com/rebuild/      

What if I told you that the traits you need to get ahead are the exact opposite of what you've been told most of your life? What if instead, I told you that in order to be successful you need to be Weird, Selfish, Shameless, Obsessed, Nosy, Manipulative, Brutal, Reckless, and Bossy? Well, that's what former Google leader and top career coach, Jenny Wood recommends. Jenny counters conventional wisdom about achieving your goals, and she gives us permission to ditch our fear and chase after what we want - unapologetically. But to do so, takes courage – what Jenny calls, Wild Courage, and that's the basis of her New York Times Bestseller Wild Courage: Go After What You Want and Get It. Jenny's journey is fascinating, from rising through the ranks at a global behemoth like Google to empowering others to take bold ownership of their careers with her work and her new book.

Susie hasn't been this happy since we found out Luigi Mangioni's name thanks to the Coldplay cheaters on the kiss cam. We discuss how it's not the crime, but the cover-up once again that got them into trouble. We debate which concerts are cheater concerts, whether it's ok to make fun of people like them who go viral, and what we think will happen to them now. We talk about the Amy Bradley Is Missing documentary, the insanity of cruise "law" and security, and what we think happened to this woman who disappeared mysteriously from a cruise ship. Sarah explains why young people need more "little treats" than previous generations, and for once Susie defends younger generations. Plus, we hear about the Gilgo Beach Long Island serial killer's family, why they can't accept that he killed people despite the overwhelming evidence pointing to him.Brain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:Get $10 off your first month's subscription and free shipping when you go to https://nutrafol.com and enter the promo code BRAINCANDYThis episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.

We're obsessing about teeth today (more than usual)! Hear why Susie thinks she got confirmation that wisdom teeth removal is done too frequently, and why she and Gen Z finally have something in common. We discuss the viral accusation of "Gen Z stare," and theorize why it's happening. We learn about a study done on persuasion that made a bunch of people furious on Reddit. We get an update on the Grandma Scam that Susie experienced a few years ago. We talk about "mind blanking," and find out who is more likely to go into this unconscious state, what the brain is doing when we are thoughtless, and why it happens. And let's just say we have some idea of which gender this happens to more frequently. Plus, we hear about a woman who does the work of the Tooth Fairy, and we decide the whole ritual is just a byproduct of capitalism and consumerism.13:52 - The "Gen Z Stare" is is what many people are labeling this blank look of confusion.21:33 - Could an AI chatbot change your mind?

In this lively and often humorous discussion, the hosts take the “Can You Afford to Be a Socialist?” test, comparing the privilege of political figures—like a candidate who quit his job at 33 because his wealthy Hollywood parents could bankroll him—to their own middle-class upbringings and expectations. They explore generational attitudes toward independence, share personal stories about living at home to pay off debt, and reflect on how economic reality shapes ideology. Along the way, they touch on rising housing costs, student loan burdens, and the social dynamics of moving back in with parents. If you've ever wondered how privilege intersects with politics—or laughed about the idea of your parents funding your mid-30s gap year—this conversation is for you.

4:54 - Today's table of contents.Susie's mom is seeing the world in a whole new way, but don't get too excited yet. We discuss the phrase "honk if you're horny," and debate whether you're actually supposed to honk or not. Sarah talks about "mushroom coffins," which claim to decompose human body in 45 days as compared to 30 years or more using other methods. We discuss cities that are overrun with tourists and the anger it provokes among residents, and we debate whether it's being handled properly, the reasons it's happening, and why Susie thinks it's not fair to people who want to travel. We learn about the Enhanced Games, which are similar to the Olympics, but allow--and encourage!--any and all performance enhancing substances, and incentivize record-breaking with cash prizes. We hear why many people are opposed to it and why it could contribute to death and injuries.Get there faster! - Episode segment list.1:14 - Why the mean comments?2:57 - Update on Sarah's plant donation fund.

3:18 - Today's Topic Breakdown - It's a Documentary Roundup on today's show, with Sooz Reviews of the My Mom Jayne, the latest installment of Trainwreck (Poop Cruise! Oh my!), and Sally Ride. We learn how Jayne Mansfield was a victim of a Hollywood system that objectifies women and society's decision to put women, especially beautiful women, into a very small box, and the ways secrets can tear families apart. We discuss the cruise that lost power and became a floating toilet in short order, and our theories about why the passengers got along and left with pretty good memories anyway. We talk about astronaut and badass bitch Sally Ride, and how the very reasons she became a trailblazer also made her hard to get to know and somewhat unlikable. Plus, we hear about the "birthday effect" where people are more likely to die on their birthdays, and we learn whether it's actually true or an illusion, and if it's true, why that might be.3:18 - Episode Table Of Contents7:34 - Susie and Sarah on the field at the Pirates game11:06 - Our favorite makeup ever13:40 - Jayne Mansfield Documentary23:40 - Poop Cruise Documentary36:06 - Our favorite comfy athlege clothes.38:06 - Sally Ride Documentary46:45 - The Birthday Effect57:20 - Share your comments about the Birthday Effect.Comment on Spotify, and on YouTubeConnect with us on social media:BCP Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastSusie's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterSarah's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBCP on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodSponsors:Visit https://shopbeam.com/BRAINCANDY and use code BRAINCANDY to get our exclusive discount of up to 35% off.New customers can get the Liquid Lash Extensions Mascara and a mini-sized Brilliant Eye Brightener at a special set price with free shipping at https://thrivecausemetics.com/BRAINCANDYSave 20% Off Honeylove by going to https://www.honeylove.com/BRAINCANDY #honeylovepodSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Susie's mom has been ill, and now she's on the mend, but she seems to have a bigger problem on her hands--namely an infestation of raccoons INSIDE her house. We talk about the doofus who sat his buns down on a Swaroski crystal chair at a museum and destroyed it. We discuss Barbara Walters, her ambition, and why she was kind of a jerk to women despite being a trailblazer at the same time. We debate whether we should start a "chichi chat," and why showing your body off to other women can be empowering. We hear about the lifelike dolls in Brazil that are making people mad, and how the women who collect (and play with) them are mocked, yet no one thinks its weird that men have similarly infantile and strange hobbies. And Susie lists several women who might be getting lots of credit for their business acumen when really their men are pulling the strings behind the scenes.3:06 - Peg's Raccoon Invasion8:17 - Identifying poop in the wild11:30 - Moron who sat on museum chair15:33 - reviewing the chari break video21:35 - If you like camping or have an RV, you should do this.23:39 - Barbara Walters Documentary "Tell Me Everything"27:50 - F**k you Barbara, and F**k you Ellen.29:53 - Hundreds of women meet for an online topless video "ChiChi" chat.

Susie has another new enemy this week and this time it's conflicting with her passion for oral hygiene. Sarah had to so sly vigilante justice this weekend when she saw some old creepers leering at women at the club. We discuss the Astroworld concert tragedy where ten people were crushed to death due to a lack of crowd control, poor planning, and too many people in the audience. We learn about the "right to repair" movement and how companies are being forced to provide information and parts to consumers who want to fix rather than replace their products. We talk about the history of the Michelin star system for rating restaurants, how it came to be, and why it's not as crazy as you think that it's the same company who makes tires.Listen to more podcasts like this: https://wavepodcastnetwork.comConnect with us on social media:BCP Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastSusie's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterSarah's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBCP on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodSponsors:This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.

Sarah went to Vail Pride and is getting very emotional about her LGBTQ journey, the self-doubt she's grappled with, and her goal of self-acceptance. We explore why we're often hardest on ourselves and more accepting of others. Sarah talks about a study on rule followers, and we speculate about why people follow rules even when no one would know if they broke it. We discuss why procrastination can be about avoiding feelings that make us uncomfortable rather than the task itself. Sarah's plant stealing lifestyle continues, and she is having guilt about some *leaves* she picked up off the ground. We debate whether private companies should be allowed to "own" celestial bodies.Our Favorite Bits19:26 - Recent study finds that people might be more honest than we thought30:33 - "Someone's having a good time".
