Podcasts about Public opinion

Sarah was car shopping, and you'll never guess what kind of car she and her girlfriend got... We learn how doctors who perform surgery on babies were inspired to improve their care after seeing the efficiency of Formula 1 pit crews. We talk about a little girl who donated a simple rock to a museum, but it is now the most popular exhibit at the museum. Sarah explains the impact having daughters has on male CEOs. Susie gives a surprising update on Milli Vanilli that feels redemptive and exciting, so much so that Sarah wants to use it to illustrate the way life can turn around to her therapy clients. Plus, we hear about this year's IG Award winners and the scientific discoveries that they made.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://auraframes.com to get $35 off Aura's best-selling Carver Mat frames - named #1 by Wirecutter - by using promo code BRAINCANDY at checkout.

We got an update about "aphantasia," the condition where you cannot see mental images, and now we're wondering if we're the weird ones because the way we see the images is apparently strange??? We think we are on the precipice of a scientific discovery that will be named after us. Susie talks about a man who had his wife cryogenically frozen, but now it's awkward because he got a new girlfriend, so hopefully they don't bring the wife back to life or he's going to have a lot of explaining to do. We hear why female scuba divers are better than their male counterparts, and Sarah is soooo happy. We learn about a woman who was stabbed to death (including in the back) and authorities are still claiming it was a suicide. Predictably, Sarah's got a theory. Plus, we learn about a "reparations happy hour" where people of color drink for free thanks to donations from white people who aren't allowed to come, and we debate whether this is a good or bad idea.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 40% off your first box PLUS get a free item in every box for life.

Have you ever wanted a bed for your phone? Do you live in the United Arab Emirates? Well, you're in luck. Ikea has the perfect thing for you. We discuss Nike's latest product that makes it easier to walk for people who were not having trouble walking (??). We created the perfect foot race, and it involves flip-flops, margaritas, and fun for the whole family. This might be our best idea yet. We learn why horses got domesticated and zebras didn't, and we also realize zebras are the reality tv personaliteis of the animal kingdom (in the worst way). We find out why octopuses are more similar to humans than we realized, except for how they might be aliens. Plus, we discuss a boy who was kidnapped that was released because he annoyed the hell out of his captors, and we stan.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 a limited time, get 60% off your first order, plus free shipping, when you head to https://www.smalls.com/BRAINCANDYGet 15% off OneSkin with the code BRAINCANDY at https://www.oneskin.co/BRAINCANDY #oneskinpodHead to https://cozyearth.com and use my code BRAINCANDY for up to 40% off — just be sure to place your order by December 12th for guaranteed Christmas delivery.

Sarah is suddenly a new woman who hates when it gets dark early, is not really into Halloween, and is crying over Christmas songs. Sounds like someone is happy and in love. So much so that we get an impromptu, spoken word version of Christmas Wrapping by the Waitresses. We hear about an inicident in the 1980s when two boys were supposedly influenced by the music of Judas Priest and persuaded to die by suicide. We hear how it ended, and why heavy metal music is an easy target. Susie reveals the data on IQs over the 20th and 21st centuries, and we learn why there was a sudden decrease in intelligence and what we can do about it. Susie describes an interview with a Holocaust guard who didn't harm any Auschwitz prisoners, but seems disconnected to his own involvement, and why it's more common than you'd think. We find out what it's like to be a pet influencer and why all the nonsense is basically the same as people influencers.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://thrivecausemetics.com/BRAINCANDY for an exclusive offer of 20% off your first order!Save 20% Off Honeylove by going to https://www.honeylove.com/BRAINCANDY #honeylovepodVisit https://www.carawayhome.com/BRAINCANDY10 to take advantage of this limited-time offer for up to 25% off your next purchase.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Sarah is trying to talk Susie into loving winter sports, and it ain't working. In fact, she's decided Shaun White is on our list of people we have bad vibes about. We hear why Sarah thinks she'd be great at ice skating. We learn why breakfast foods are becoming more expensive, Florida is out of the orange juice biz, and Susie doesn't know what she's going to eat now. We find out why China is causing a bizarre boom in saxophone players, and Sarah has a theory about it. We discuss sports betting, why it's a problem, and how apparently you can be a "professional slot machine player." Plus, a woman found out she has the blood of a man, and we are baffled about how that works.00:00 - Sarah's Winter Sports Push and Shaun White'sBad Vibes09:46 - Breathe Cleaner Air with Air Doctor Air Purifiers12:01 - Why Orange Juice & Breakfast Staples Are Becoming a Luxury20:25 - Wrap Yourself in Luxury with Cozy Earth Bedding & Pajamas21:52 - The Shift to Struggle Meals as Breakfast Becomes Pricier27:00 - The Bizarre Boom of Saxophone Players in China33:57 - Share Cherished Memories with Aura Digital Photo Frames36:20 - ChatGPT Wins Lottery & The Dark Side of Sports Betting53:08 - The Incredible Case of a Woman with Male Blood Cells01:00:18 - Final Thoughts, Listener Thanks & Holiday WishesBrain 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:Visit https://auraframes.com and get $45 off Aura's best-selling Carver Mat frames - named #1 by Wirecutter - by using promo code BRAINCANDY at checkout.Head to https://airdoctorpro.com and use promo code CANDY to get UP TO $300 off today!

Susie has a theory about a scubadiving accident Sarah had ten years ago. We wonder why anyone wears a visor. We discuss the 30 for 30 short film about Black "hand clap" games that girls play, how they originated, and why we don't continue them into adulthood. We debate the virtues of locker room nudity, why it's becoming antiquated, and why some people (including Sarah want to bring it back). Susie had an accident in an Uber, and she wants everyone to know, it was not what it looked like. We talk about the filmography and comedy of Eddie Murphy, and the new documentary that chronicles his career. Plus, Susie celebrates the death of the penny, but Sarah is feeling ambivalent.00:00 - Sarah's Scuba Panic and the Mandela Effect Theory09:26 - Debating Visors and Loving Caraway Cookware & Bakeware14:41 - Exploring the History of Black Girls' Hand Games32:32 - Susie's Embarrassing Uber Incident and Naked Etiquette39:47 - The Surprising Story of Gay Rams and Rainbow Wool46:35 - Celebrating Eddie Murphy's Diverse Filmography and Artistry56:19 - Debating the End of the Penny and Our Approach to ChangeBrain 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:Visit https://auraframes.com and get $45 off Aura's best-selling Carver Mat frames - named #1 by Wirecutter - by using promo code BRAINCANDY at checkout.Visit https://www.carawayhome.com/braincandy10 to take advantage of this limited-time offer for up to 20% off your next purchase.Go to https://reliefband.com to shop the Black Friday and Cyber Monday sale and save up to 30% off sitewide.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this Garage edition of The Court of Public Opinion, Jeremy dives into a fast-moving mix of politics, economics and the absurdities shaping Australia in late 2025. From fears of an “AI investment bubble” to staggering stock market swings, Jeremy breaks down what the tech boom really means for everyday Australians. He calls out the irony of government climate posturing, questions the logic behind Australia’s renewable commitments, and highlights the contradictions in exporting coal while preaching net-zero. Jeremy also tears into the Bureau of Meteorology’s shocking $96.5 million website rebuild, the CSIRO’s mass job cuts, and the growing dysfunction inside Australia’s key institutions. Plus, he discusses the bizarre $100 million government ad campaign surrounding South Australia’s algal bloom, and the ongoing tension between bureaucracy, red tape and common sense. It’s classic Jeremy: sharp, unscripted, fearless — with plenty of history, humour and “did that really happen?” moments.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Sarah saw an old clip from the Ruins season of the Challenge with Susie and Sarah together, and we discuss why the boys bullied Sarah. We learn why time seems to be speeding up for everyone, and what you can do to slow it down. Sarah explains the strange nature of the Kardashians editing and why she enjoys vacuous movies and tv while Susie, who is a big fan of superficiality normally is a documentary junkie. We discuss why elephant seals drop like a stone in the ocean when they're sleeping, and why humans are far more vulnerable when they snooze each night. Susie finally watched Jaws a half century after it's premiere, and she has some thoughts about the "f*cked up" plot, the illogical title, and questions about the sequels. This is the belated movie review no one asked for, but everyone needs.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:Right now, you can stack our code BRAINCANDY at https://cozyearth.com on top of their sitewide sale - giving you up to 40% off in savings.

Sarah learned a fun (??) fact about persimmon seeds, and now we have to talk about it. Susie is less impressed, and skeptical about its implications. We hear the history of, wait for it, the Thong Song, and are delighted by the vocal stylings, song construction, and cultural impact of this one-hit-wonder. We learn about an imprint in a piece of cement in Chicago that has become an unlikely tourist attraction, and despite it's connection to things that scurry, Sarah is bewitched. We hear how scholars solved the mystery of what caused it, and we have ideas for how to make the most of it. A man went on a three day retreat into total darkness, and we discuss the strange side effects of this sensory adventure. And we get an update on Susie's secret (totally not secret) crush on her eye doctor.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 ten dollars off your first month's subscription and free shipping when you go to https://nutrafol.com and enter the promo code BRAINCANDYThe Brain Candy Podcast is sponsored by BetterHelp.

Susie is in the throes of Beatlemania, and she found out who Sarah's favorite Beatle is, and it's hilar (especially the reasoning). We learn about people who cannot see visual images or pictures in their mind, what conditions often correlate with the condition, and the pros and cons to having it. We hear why Susie thinks she has an auditory version of it and we discuss people who have something called "blindsight," where their eyes and brain can see things, but they aren't conscious of it, so they are ostensibly blind, but behave as if they aren't. Sarah describes a documentary about a school principal who hypnotized his students and three of them wound up dead. We discuss a nanny who was hired for a wealthy family and moved into their guest house, but when she was fired she refused to leave and invoked "squatter's rights." We debate the virtues of these strange laws that allow people to take over other people's residences.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:Want to feel safer in online dating?

Susie and Sarah are psyched about the Louvre heist especially because there was a woman involved, but Sarah's mom is not so pleased. We hear why one UFC fighter is being challenged about his use of a diabolical tactic of tickling, and we learn why it's seen as "unsportsmanlike." We debate the ethics of free diving and why some people think inhaling pure oxygen beforehand is "cheating." Susie watched the Aileen Wournos documentary, and despite being very familiar with the murderes, she still learned a lot that complicated her opinion of what happened. Finally, we debate a viral DoorDash delivery issue where a woman claimed to be "assaulted" by a customer, but believe it or not we're on his side...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 a limited time get 40% off your first box PLUS get a free item in every box for life.

We survived our live event! And better still we got to meet amazing Brainiacs and Susie got to witness Sarah embody the ghost of PeeWee Herman. It was incredible. We share how we violated one of our sacred principles when we participated in an activity we've previously railed against (we did not climb Mt. Everest). We discuss the woman who was left behind by a cruise ship on a deserted Australian island, and we debate how she died. Sarah reveals the age of the oldest crayon, but more importantly, we learn what it tells us about the human spirit. We talk about a controversial OnlyFans policy that is creating a MLM structure to the site. Sarah theorizes why costumes are getting hyperspecific, and Susie is mad about it.

We were worried we might not have anything left to talk about on the show (spoiler alert, we were wrong). We discuss the good and bad uses of AI, why it can be a better doctor than a human, why it's more dangerous than plastic, and why Sarah can't quit ChatGPT. Sarah explains why misinformation is causing more marriages than anything else. We share what our "favorite" conspiracy theories are, and why we sort of believe them. Sarah almost got struck by lightning, and why she wants people to be more careful during storms. We hear why there might be a cure for the vision issues of growing old, and we find out that essential oils actually are...essential.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.Download Hily from the App Store or Google Play, or check out https://hily.comSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We've got an update on the wounded hawk on Susie's property and an update on the wounded boobs in Susie's body. We hear how her second MRI went, and why she's mad as a hornet. Sarah had a breakdown about her haircut, but we cracked the case on what was really causing it. We debate what song we'd like to hear again for the first time.

Sarah AND Susie had MRIs (separately, but still), and let's just say it didn't go well. Hear them trauma bond about it. We learn that cows have accents depending on where they live, and even their mood and what they're mooing about. And we learn how we even know that. We discuss how inspired we are by the work and life of Jane Goodall, and how her legacy will live on. We talk about how there are different expectations for different circumstances and how standards change all the time and expectations affect our perceptions. We learn about a school that is limiting the number of times students can use the bathroom, and we debate whether this is a good policy or not. And Sarah reveals the difference between having an orgasm with a woman vs. having an orgasm with a man.Brain Candy Podcast Presents: Susie & Sarah's SpOoOoOoOoktacular Spectacle, October 30, Oriental Theater, Denver, Colorado: Get your tickets!

Sarah was nail biting sober for two years, but a reality show pushed her off the wagon. Hear why she thinks men are not ok, and why her nails are paying the price. We hear Susie's review of the extreme birding documentary, and the crazy coincidence that allowed her to have a birding experience on her property this week.

We speculate about what we would get arrested for if we ever get arrested. Susie recounts the time she almost went to jail over breakfast, and Sarah claims she almost had to sue someone over mismatched carpet.

Glenn, Mike, and Mike tackle the cultural and political controversies dominating today's headlines — from the debate over Indigenous Peoples Day to the growing crisis at America's borders. The trio challenges the “stolen land” narrative, calling out political hypocrisy and historical oversimplification. They dive into illegal immigration, voter ID laws, and the mass exodus of Democrats moving to the Republican Party, especially in states like Florida. Plus, they weigh in on Hollywood's obsession with representation, Antifa's true nature, and the push to send the National Guard into crumbling blue cities.

In this episode, Jeff points out the ridiculousness of the belief that President Trump has brought peace to the Middle East with the ceasefire agreement he got Israel and Hamas to sign. There is a mountain of evidence which makes clear that this ceasefire is simply a lull until the next war. In the meantime, the leftists/terrorists are making massive inroads into America and our failure to cut off the head of the terror snake will be our country's greatest failure in the not so distant future.In other news, Bruce Cutler has passed, at one point the most famous lawyer in the world. Bruce also was the lawyer who had a large part in getting Jeff to drop Pre-med in college and go to law school. In this podcast, Jeff recounts some very funny Bruce stories from years past. RIP Bruce.

A popular outdoor brand somehow thought it was a good idea to set off an elaborate, polluting firework display and we are not impressed. We learn why doofuses are strapping iPads to tortoise backs. Sarah explains what "distance self-talk" is and why it can be helpful or hurtful depending on how you use it. We talk about a "very haunted" hotel that has very strict rules about pranks, and since Susie hates pranks, she's on board. We debate the "correct" way to cut food and we learn why Susie is stressed about doing it wrong. Susie explains her rubric for what makes a one-hit-wonder, and hear why a lot of people are very sensitive when they learn an artist they happen to like only had one hit (we're looking at you Oasis fans). Plus, there's a college football program that is known for taking ridiculous player photos, and their new coach put a stop to it. Susie and Sarah disagree about whether the coach did the right thing...Brain Candy Podcast Presents: Susie & Sarah's SpOoOoOoOoktacular Spectacle, October 30, Oriental Theater, Denver, Colorado: Get your tickets!

Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine has now passed the three-and-a-half-year mark, and there is still no end in sight. The Trump administration's recent push to negotiate a ceasefire ground to a halt in early September, after Ukraine's Volodymyr Zelensky rejected Vladimir Putin's proposal to meet in Moscow, dismissing the invitation as a sign that his Russian counterpart has no desire to negotiate. Meanwhile, on the battlefield in Ukraine, Russian troops are continuing their offensive in central Donbas. While Ukrainian forces have succeeded in slowing their advance, this has come at the cost of Kyiv's defenses elsewhere, creating vulnerable gaps between frontline positions that Russian forces can slip through. With the front line becoming increasingly fluid and peace talks stalled, Russia has also continued to launch deadly missile and drone attacks on Ukrainian cities, targeting the country's energy grid ahead of the approaching winter months.  By all appearances, Putin believes that if Russia's military keeps pushing forward, it will eventually outlast and overpower Ukraine. But how much longer can the Kremlin sustain its war machine?  In a new report for the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS), senior fellow Maria Snegovaya and Europe, Russia, and Eurasia program director Max Bergmann break down the mounting costs of Russia's war effort and outline four plausible scenarios for the war's next chapter. Dr. Maria Snegovaya joins this episode of The Naked Pravda to discuss their analysis. Time stamps for this episode: (2:05) The current state of the Russia–Ukraine war(4:49) Russia's war strategy and unchanging goals(8:03) How sustainable is this war for the Kremlin?(13:12) How Russia is replenishing its military losses(17:30) Potential scenarios for the war's future(26:55) Strategies for Ukraine and Western alliesКак поддержать нашу редакцию — даже если вы в России и вам очень страшно

Sarah went gay line-dancing, which is like regular line-dancing, but awesome! And now she's hooked. We discuss the Lilith Fair documentary, how the festival compares to Woodstock 99, why women should run more stuff, and why we have a lot of concerts to go to now. We learn about three nuns who broke out of their retirement home and returned to their convent, and the Vatican is not pleased. Hear why Ed McMahon's Publisher's Clearinghouse winners are getting screwed, and now they're going broke despite being lottery winners.

In this episode of Passing Judgment, host Jessica Levinson is joined by Politico's Nicholas Wu to break down the causes and consequences of the ongoing government shutdown. They discuss how partisan divides, failed budget talks, and the Senate filibuster have led to a halt in government services and potential spikes in healthcare costs. Nicholas shares what this means for everyday Americans, the political strategies on both sides, and why the shutdown could last for weeks. Tune in for a clear explanation of how we got here, what's happening now, and what may come next on Capitol Hill.Here are three key takeaways you don't want to miss:1. How the Government Shutdown Happened: Nicholas Wu lays out the basic process of government funding through appropriations bills in Congress. He explains that both the House and Senate Appropriations Committees are supposed to agree on funding for each agency by September 30th. This year, they failed to come to an agreement, and attempts at a stopgap measure (a continuing resolution) fell through, triggering the shutdown.2. Partisan Gridlock & Narrow Legislative Majorities: A recurring theme is the impact of narrow majorities in Congress and the difficulties that creates for reaching agreements. Wu highlights that with such close margins, especially in the Senate due to the filibuster rule, bipartisan cooperation is necessary but often lacking. The lack of communication between parties and between Congress and the White House is also emphasized as fueling the stalemate.3. Impact of the Shutdown on Everyday Americans: The conversation shifts to what the shutdown actually means for federal services and the public. Wu notes that the effect varies depending on where people interact with the federal government. Essential services (like air traffic control) keep running, but might do so without pay, while some non-essential services are halted, affecting federal workers and potentially local economies.Follow Our Host: @LevinsonJessica
