Podcasts about creams

Happy Pot Luck Saturday!This week we're taking a delicious trip back to the golden age of childhood as we explore the incredible history of the American ice cream truck…from the 1920s Good Humor man to the legendary Hood trucks of Boston and the unforgettable novelty treats that defined the 60s, 70s, and 80s. Why did hearing that familiar jingle send an entire neighborhood sprinting for home? How did the ice cream man become one of America's most beloved summer traditions? And what happened to this uniquely American ritual?  Along the way we rank the greatest frozen treats of all time…from Bomb Pops, Strawberry Shortcake Bars, Toasted Almonds, Screwballs, Push-Ups, Chipwiches, Jimmy Cones, Circus Fun, Cannonballs, Nutty Buddies and so many forgotten favorites. We uncover surprising stories behind Good Humor, Mister Softee, Hood, and the entrepreneurs who built an iconic industry on wheels, along with fascinating stats, hidden history, and the business lessons behind one of America's greatest neighborhood traditions. As always on Pot Luck Saturday, we wander wherever curiosity takes us, from pool safety and parenting, back to school back when, and why Gen X is the bridge generation, getting the last novelty ice creams from the truck so to speak.   Join us at our Canyon Ranch 2026 Retreat: https://www.canyonranch.com/lenox/retreats/heal-retreat-maria-menounos HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy's Page: Shop My Macy's Storefront EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/host ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos' passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

What happens when men's health gets reduced to one testosterone number? In this episode of hol+, Dr. Taz sits down with Dr. Brandon Smith, MD, a conventionally trained physician practicing at hol+, for a practical and eye-opening conversation about men's health, low testosterone, sleep apnea, TRT, GLP-1s, muscle, stress, hormones, and why so many men are waiting too long to get proactive about their health.Together, they explore why men's health needs a reframe, especially in a medical culture where many men are taught to only go to the doctor when something is clearly broken. Dr. Smith shares what he sees in the exam room, from younger men asking about testosterone before starting a family, to men in their 40s, 50s, and 60s realizing they have spent years pushing through fatigue, stress, brain fog, weight changes, low libido, poor sleep, or changes in performance without knowing where to start.Dr. Taz and Dr. Smith also unpack why low testosterone is not always a simple testosterone problem. Dr. Smith explains the difference between total testosterone and free testosterone, why one lab number is only a snapshot, why testosterone can fluctuate throughout the day, and why morning testing matters. They also discuss why symptoms, context, body composition, sleep, stress, inflammation, chronic illness, and lifestyle all need to be part of the conversation before jumping straight to testosterone therapy.This conversation takes a closer look at one of the most overlooked drivers of low testosterone: sleep apnea. Dr. Smith explains why disrupted sleep can create a stress signal in the body, why men may not realize they are waking up throughout the night, and why the body may lower reproductive hormones when it does not feel safe, rested, or recovered. They also discuss how fasting, chronic stress, high cortisol, poor recovery, and underlying medical conditions can affect hormone levels.If you're listening to this and thinking, “I know something is off in my body, but I don't know where to start,” join the Circle here:

So hot. Just awful out there. Even at 1am this morning…it was like a furnace blast when I opened the door and stepped outside. Cooling off a bit after today with more rain & thunderstorms on the way. In the news this mornings, a recall on heart & kidney meds, a dead baby was found in a porta potty at a music festival, Daveigh Chase's cause of death is revealed In sports, the Brewers got a nice come-from-behind win over the Reds last night, Team USA takes on Bosnia tomorrow night, Ja Morant gets traded to the Trailblazers, former NFL running back Chris Johnson reveals his ALS diagnosis, the Lions release Terrion Arnold, Malik Beasley gets indicted on federal gambling charges, and Viktor Hovland won the playoff against Scottie Scheffler yesterday morning. We talked about what's on TV & streaming today/tonight and let you know what's new on New Release Tuesday. Plus, Jason Segel is talking about a "Dracula puppet" movie based on his character in "Forgetting Sarah Marshall". And Noah Kahan had a nasty situation at a recent show that's going viral. Cool story about a school resource officer who rented out an entire movie theater to treat more than 100 kids, and a 7 year-old boy saves his younger brother from drowning. Grant Bilse from the Wisco Sports Show joined us a bit early today and talked about the Brewers weekend against the Cubs We had some 4th of July stuff as we get ready for the holiday this weekend…including a list of TV shows that define the American experience, and apparently people are upset that brands aren't selling more patriotic things for America's 250th. Tomorrow begins a new month…National Ice Cream Month to be precise…so we took a look at America's favorite flavors. Elsewhere in sports, some World Cup stories, including Freddy the German sticking around even though his country is now eliminated from the tournament, and an Argentina fan loses his wallet…but other fans help reunite him with his property. And in today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a trio of moms in Texas who left their children locked in a bedroom so they could go out and get hammered, a fireworks explosion caused by a cigarette, there's apparently people out there who are paying top dollar to be buried next to their favorite celebrities, & a guy in Scotland who refuses to perform his community service without his emotional support lizard.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Women's sexual health is finally getting the attention it deserves—and one of the hottest topics right now is prescription “arousal cream,” often nicknamed “Scream Cream.” But do these creams actually work, or is social media hype outrunning the science? In this episode of Paloma's podcast, we break down what arousal creams are, how they're designed to increase blood flow and sensitivity, and why they may help some women while doing very little for others.You'll learn the critical difference between libido (mental desire) and arousal (the body's physical response), and why so many women in perimenopause, menopause, or with hypothyroidism experience changes in sensation, lubrication, orgasm, and sexual satisfaction. We explore the ingredients commonly found in compounded creams—including sildenafil, testosterone, and L-arginine—plus what current research says about their effectiveness, safety, and limitations.We also unpack the real-world experiences women are sharing online: for some, arousal creams feel life-changing; for others, they're disappointing or ineffective because the root cause wasn't addressed first. 

  The Truth About Cellulite (What No One Is Actually Telling You) Let's be honest — most of what you've heard about cellulite was designed to sell you something. In this episode, I'm breaking down the science, busting the biggest myths, and giving you a framework that actually makes sense for your body. What We Cover: What cellulite actually is — It's not a fat problem. It's a structural design. Women have vertically arranged connective tissue (septae) that allows fat to push up against the skin differently than it does in men. This is why 90% of women have cellulite and most men don't. Athletes have it. Thin women have it. It is not a measure of fitness or body fat percentage. Why it gets more noticeable in perimenopause — Estrogen directly influences collagen production and skin thickness. As estrogen declines, skin thins and loses elasticity — making the underlying structure more visible. This is biology, not failure. What the wellness industry gets wrong — Creams, dry brushing, and detox regimens don't change your connective tissue structure. Specific foods don't cause or cure cellulite. And yet there's a $4B+ industry built on selling you shame as a product. What actually has evidence — Collagen peptides with Vitamin C, resistance training, hydration, and perimenopause-supportive nutrition (protein, omega-3s, phytoestrogens) can support skin integrity and overall health. Honest disclaimer: cellulite reduction may be a side effect — not a guarantee. The real reframe — Your skin is doing exactly what skin does after decades of living, hormonal shifts, and gravity. The question isn't how do I get rid of it — it's what does my body actually need right now?   Let's keep the conversation going...

Are you who are ready to stop pushing through life and start living it with intention, energy, and ease? Then let's get started. I'm your host, Kellie Lupsha, a high-performance health coach, who is delighted to be your guide to vitality.In this episode, I'm sitting down with Dr. Heidi to cut through the noise surrounding one of the most requested topics in women's health right now: hormone replacement therapy. We've all heard the recent conversations about how it's finally safer to explore, but I know so many of you are still sitting there wondering where to actually begin. Which delivery method should I even ask for? How do I start that conversation with my practitioner without feeling lost? Today, we're pulling back the curtain on the real pros, cons, and hidden mechanics behind the most common options, plus sharing exactly how we would approach our own health journey.Key Highlights:➡️ Why it's never too late to finally bring up hormone therapy with your provider.➡️ How the most popular delivery methods actually interact with your body.➡️ Why steady, consistent dosing matters more than chasing quick fixes.➡️ The everyday realities and trade-offs of using patches versus pellets.➡️ Why certain topical creams and injections might be undermining your progress.➡️ The realistic timeline you should wait before safely considering a dosage adjustment.➡️ How to strategically choose your starting point among estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone.➡️ Why tuning into your body's daily feedback matters just as much as the numbers on your lab report.Key Takeaways:“And I guess the only downfall is if you really work consistent on the dose you needed, it's a little harder to change.” -Kellie Lupsha"Testosterone is kind of the... leader actually... women have more testosterone made in our body than a man does... because we have to downregulate it into more estrogens." -Dr. Heidi1️⃣ JOIN US IN THE WOMEN'S LONGEVITY & WELLNESS HUB!A Functional Medicine, Wellness, and Coaching Membership designed just for women over 50.

In this week's Outspoken Review I'm delving into my favourite BB/CC Creams.I'm also talking about something incredibly important that I'd love you to get involved with!

In this clip from Bathroom Diaries, Dr. Sofia Din and Dr. Rob Frankel break down one of the most common mistakes people make with peptides: thinking one peptide can fix everything. Using a simple and hilarious analogy — "asking for one peptide is like going to a tire shop and buying just one tire" — they explain why peptides work best as a system, not a single quick fix. If you're curious about how peptides actually work, which combinations make sense, and why personalized protocols matter, this highlight is a must-watch.

Weather was a little fickle in 2025 for Wisconsin's cranberry growers. Jill Welke gets the update from Grant Holley, executive director of the WI Cranberry Growers Association. He says that producers continue to struggle with access to global markets. That's something they've been targeting to try and educate and engage with a whole new consuming audience. We may not be setting any records, but Wisconsin will stay cold and dangerous again this week. Stu Muck says the winds will persist until at least mid-week, but there will be some sunshine to act as a salve. The global marketplace seems to get more complicated by the day for Wisconsin farmers. Ben Jarboe discusses those challenges with Dewey Hull, broker at Advanced Trading in Deforest. Hull says influences from the Venezuelan oil situation to the ongoing war in Ukraine are pushing U.S. farmers margins. He also advises that farms should be using every risk management tool available to find a path forward. There's a new flavor coming to Cedar Crest scoop shops this summer! Hold Your Horses was the winning flavor in the annual contest that engages 4-H clubs across the state. Pam Jahnke reports that the new flavor from Pesobic Pathfinders 4-H Club in Lincoln County features espresso-flavored ice cream with chocolate covered toffee pieces and caramel ribbons. The winning combination captured the club a $500 cash prize and an ice cream party. There's nothing sweet about the current economic outlook for almost all elements of Wisconsin agriculture. Ag lenders are keeping a keen eye on costs or production and what farms are doing to be proactive on their situation. Trevor Athorp is an ag lender in Sheboygan for Bank First. For over two decades he's been involved in direct conversations with farmers and their advisors about mitigating risk. He says this year, individuals must know their cost of production for each element on the farm, and deploy proactive measures to control what they can.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

An issue affecting thousands of women but rarely talked about openly – access to vaginal oestrogen treatments. At Clare County Council's December meeting, Ennis Mayor and Fine Gael councillor Mary Howard brought a motion calling on the Minister for Health to allow vaginal oestrogen gels and creams to be available over the counter, as they are in other countries. The Department of Health has since replied, saying these products remain prescription-only unless manufacturers apply to have them reclassified by the HPRA – something that hasn't happened to date. To discuss why this matters, the impact on women's health, and what needs to change, Alan Morrissey was joined by Mary Howard, Mayor of Ennis, and Dr Máire Finn, Ennis GP and female health specialist.

Amy Simmons is the founder of Amy's Ice Creams—a beloved Austin institution with 19 locations built over 41 years—not through franchising or rapid expansion, but through deep community roots, creative culture, and an unshakeable commitment to people first.  In this conversation, Amy shares how she grew the company without franchising, avoided national rollout, and even allowed each store to operate with its own personality. We get into the role theatrical customer service plays in the brand, how open-book management teaches financial literacy and strengthens decision-making, and why staying regional became a strategic advantage. We also talk about real estate, vertical integration, and how hyper-local partnerships helped turn Amy's into a fixture of Austin rather than just another ice cream shop.  If you're interested in the kind of business that grows deeper instead of wider, Amy's story offers a very different—and very successful—approach to scale.   Key Takeaways 00:00 Intro 01:10 What Makes Amy's Ice Cream Different 02:54 Small Community Gifts That Drive Big Returns 04:01 Why 350 Rotating Flavors Actually Work 08:39 Prioritizing Customer Feedback Over Sales Data 11:32 The Secret Behind Amy's #1 Top-Selling Flavor 13:52 Managing Supply Chain Shortages Without Losing Quality 15:14 The One Flavor Austin Refused to Let Her Remove 16:05 Hiring With Creativity: The Paper Bag Application 19:14 How Amy Identifies the Right People for Her Culture 21:15 The Experience Matters More Than the Ice Cream 21:47 How Showmanship Became an Amy's Trademark 24:44 The System Behind Amy's Creative Culture 27:55 The Power of Open Financials in a Small Business 33:53 The ROI of Teaching Money Skills to Employees 36:27 Why Amy Refused to Franchise or Expand Globally 46:35 Growing Deeper, Not Wider: Amy's Approach to Expansion 52:59 How Your Business Can Increase Real Estate Value 57:22 The Moat That Protects Amy's From National Chains 58:43 Advice for Entrepreneurs Facing Imposter Syndrome 1:00:00 Amy's Take on Austin's Growing Pains     Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/gU5eigqFtns      Let's Connect: Website | Instagram | YouTube | TikTok | Twitter | Facebook

This week, Dex spills all the details of her anti-aging skincare routine — and let's just say, it's not for anyone on a budget. If you thought that was crazy, wait till you hear her skincare goals inspired by Paris Hilton. From luxury serums to three-hour facials, Dex already has her regimen mapped out for when she hits that “Kim K money” era. Carla can't stop laughing (or calculating the price tag). Then, in the spirit of Halloween, we get into some real-life scary stories. We unpack the shocking case of Sakiyna Thompson, recently convicted of murdering her romantic rival, Kayla Hodgson, in a cross-state crime of passion. Carla, who shares her own cringe-worthy tales of confronting “the other woman” back in the day — and let's just say, it didn't go as planned. Finally, things take a futuristic (and spicy) turn as we react to OpenAI's bombshell announcement: starting December 2025, ChatGPT will allow erotic content for verified adult users. Sam Altman says it's all about user autonomy and responsible AI — but we aren't so sure. Will this new feature empower women or open a whole new can of digital drama? Tune in for the laughs, the side-eye, and our thoughts on bots gone wild. CONNECT WITH US ON SOCIAL MEDIA: CARLA WILMARIS | DEX

In this episode, Therese Markow and Dr. Molly Hales discuss the growing trend of young children using anti-aging skincare products, influenced by social media and influencers. Dr. Hales highlights the concerns about the rise in young patients with skin reactions to these products. These young users often apply multiple products with potentially irritating ingredients (and often multiple active ingredients or multiple products with the same active ingredient). Dr. Hales also emphasizes the need for basic skincare routines for young users, with a focus on sunscreen, and calls for better education and regulation to protect these children.     Key Takeaways: Girls as young as 9 are increasingly using antiaging creams geared to older women. These products contain ingredients and are designed for more mature skin rather than youthful skin.  Sunscreen is the number one recommended product for people of all ages (except babies under 6 months). This is also not the most commonly used product among social media influencers with their viral skincare routines.  There are three main risks associated with using improper skincare products, with the main risk being irritation (irritant contact dermatitis).  Brands get more attention and recognition by sending free products to influencers for videos, reaching a wider (and younger) audience than they might otherwise.  "It seems like, as more younger and younger people are putting more and more products on their skin, that there is more and more skin allergy that's happening and that's going to follow kids around for the rest of their lives." —  Dr. Molly Hales   Episode References:  Pediatric Skin Care Regimens on TikTok - Molly Hales, MD, PhD - https://publications.aap.org/pediatrics/article-abstract/156/1/e2024070309/202103/Pediatric-Skin-Care-Regimens-on-TikTok    Connect with Dr. Molly Hales: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/molly-hales-987b6410/     Connect with Therese: Website: www.criticallyspeaking.net Threads: @critically_speaking Email: theresemarkow@criticallyspeaking.net   Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

Most women don't realize that brain fog, weight gain, anxiety, low libido, and fatigue in their 30s or 40s can be early signs of perimenopause — not just stress or aging.In this episode of The Well Drop, I sit down with Dr. Sarah Daccarett, to explore why waiting until menopause for hormone therapy leaves women struggling for years. We unpack the early warning signs of hormone decline, why “progesterone-only” therapy falls short, and how bioidentical hormones can transform health.We discuss why the delivery method matters and what realistic results look like from month one to six. Dr. Sarah Daccarett is a physician, researcher, and founder of Oestra and Inner Balance, two groundbreaking platforms dedicated to modernizing women's hormone care. Her work blends the latest science with a deep understanding of how hormones impact every system in the body.What's Discussed:(00:00) The Hormone Changes No One Warns You About in Midlife(12:24) Why Most Women's HRT Plans Are Outdated — And How to Fix Them(22:39) The 3 Hormones Every Woman Needs (and the Right Ratios)(27:19) Pills, Patches, Creams… or Something Better?

Oat shells 75g rolled oats 50g plain flour 75g soft brown sugar 50g cold butter diced 1 teaspoon honey 1 egg yolkRub the oats, flour and butter together until the mixture resembles fine crumbs. Add the sugar, honey and egg yolk and mix to a dough. Lightly butter a 12 hole tartlet tray and set oven to 180oc. Divide the mixture into 12 pieces – you can eyeball this or weigh the mixture and divide by twelve. Take pieces of the dough and roll into a ball with wet hands then flatten to fit into the hole. Repeat with all the mix and then bake for 12 minutes. Allow to cool in the tray for 10 minutes then remove.4 red eating apples 1 dessertspoon honey 25g castor sugar Juice half a lemonPlace the lemon juice in a bowl. Cut the apples in quarters, peel and remove the core and then cut into small dice. Toss in the lemon juice. Place the honey, sugar and apples in a pan and cook until apples have softened but still intact. Drain the apples and place in a bowl. Boil the liquor to a thick syrup and add to the apples.

In this episode of the Gutsy Health Podcast, Juanique Grover is joined by Dr. Brian Rodgers and hormone consultant Tauscha Johansen to unpack what most people misunderstand about hormone health—particularly when it comes to bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT). They dive into the symptoms women often ignore or get gaslit over, explain how BHRT works, and discuss why quality of life—not just lab results—should guide your decisions.They also explore how sex hormones don't function in isolation. If your thyroid, adrenals, or mitochondria are struggling, your hormones will be too. The episode is both practical and empowering, especially for women who are tired of being told "everything looks normal" when they clearly don't feel it.TakeawaysSex hormones (estrogen, progesterone, testosterone) influence almost every system in the bodyBioidentical hormones mimic your body's natural hormone structure, making them easier to metabolizeThe thyroid, adrenals, liver, and mitochondria all need to function well before hormone therapy will workSymptoms like low libido, brain fog, fatigue, and mood swings are often early signs of imbalanceDelivery methods matter—pellets, creams, patches, and injections all behave differently in the bodyThe Women's Health Initiative study caused widespread fear, but the science has shiftedFunctional testing provides a better view than conventional labs aloneYou're responsible for 90% of your healing—therapy supports the remaining 10%BHRT isn't about vanity; it's about reclaiming your ability to feel human againDon't wait until you're falling apart—early support makes a differenceChapters00:00 Introduction to Hormone Health03:44 Common Signs of Hormone Imbalance07:20 What Are Bioidentical Hormones?10:32 Delivery Methods: Pellets vs Creams vs Patches13:49 Why the Thyroid Must Be Addressed First17:11 Revisiting the WHI Study and Misconceptions21:58 Who Is (and Isn't) a Good Candidate for BHRT26:35 Functional Testing vs Standard Hormone Panels30:42 The 90/10 Rule of Healing34:50 Hormone Optimization and Quality of Life40:12 Closing Thoughts: Advocate for Your Own HealthReady to Take Control of Your Healing?Enrollment for the Gutsy Health Academy is now open!If you want to learn how to heal your body from the inside out—starting with the foundations—this program is for you.

Join us for an illuminating conversation on Skin Anarchy as Dr. Ekta Yadav sits down with Dr. Ronit Segev, founder and CEO of BIOFOR, a brand redefining what it means to be “professional-grade” in skincare. This episode goes beyond beauty trends and into the science of skin itself—why it ages, how it functions, and what it really takes to deliver results that last.Dr. Segev shares her unconventional path from marketing to biology, revealing how her return to university sparked the creation of BIOFOR. Her brand is rooted in molecular biology—not marketing fluff—and is designed for clinical use by licensed professionals who understand skin as a living, evolving organ.You'll hear why popular beliefs—like serums always being more effective than creams—often miss the mark, and why so many “ingredient infusion” treatments (like microneedling cocktails) fail to live up to their hype.

As Christians, we want to be formed by wisdom. Biblically, we know that wisdom comes with age, but we live in a culture obsessed with youth rather than one formed by gospel truth. I'm of the age that I have friends turning both 30 and 40, and for so many women, those milestones are greeted with grief.Creams and fillers to disguise our age are in our social media feeds constantly. When you open the comment sections on so many things, the term “Okay, Boomer” has revealed how far we've moved culturally from respect of elders to derision of them.Most of us know Jen from her Bible studies, but recently she wrote an article for Christianity Today "At My Mother's Deathbed, I Discovered the Symmetry of a Long Life" about what it was like caring for her mother as she aged and eventually passed. I would love for us to take a look together at what a “Legacy of Faith” looks like when caring for elderly parents.What was it like moving into the stage of life caring for your parents?You've talked about the arc of life and the way it reflects Biblical literature. Can you tell us about that?How has watching your parents and older saints helped give you a path to exit a current season with grace and submission to the passing of time?Being in midlife, you said you noticed that you repeat so many of the same life experiences, but level up the quality in how you handle them… Can you tell us about that?How have you noticed the gaining of wisdom and shift in the internal life as we age?What did you learn about cherishing all of your days in this process?What does it look like to find value in older women, and not just to see them as having equal value, but rather increasing value?You can find Jen Wilkin's latest Bible study on "⁠⁠Revelation" here. ⁠You can find Elizabeth writing helpful hints ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠on the blog⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Helping you love Jesus and disciple your kids ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠on Instagram ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Or get access to the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Additional study resources here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Original Music written and recorded by Jonathan Camenisch *affiliate links are used when appropriate.

Cardy, Matt, and Dale have all been playing Doom: The Dark Ages and enjoying slicing demons in half with its buzzsaw of a shield. They also react to the new GTA 6 trailer and bring their latest theories to the table, as well as shouting out the snackable silliness of Promise Mascot Agency, the surrealism of The Rehearsal, slickness of Andor, and brain-breaking nature of The Devil's Plan.
