Scientists think they might have found a planet that is "brimming with life," and we're pretty sure whoever lives there is way smarter than earthlings. We learn about a climber who had to be rescued twice in one week because he forgot his phone on the mountain. And we discuss a vintage story about a hiker who was lost and couldn't be rescued because when first responders called him he didn't pick up because he didn't recognize the number. We debate whether it was appropriate for a tennis player to tell her opponent to put on deodorant. We discuss the Oklahoma City bombing documentary, and how hearing the stories of the survivors helped portray the scope of loss. Susie is worried about a kind of hornet that is making its home in her town, and Sarah thinks they might be government drones or psyops. A town in Finland calls itself the home of Santa, but residents are fed up with all the tourists. We consider the backlash about tourism around the world and what's really driving it.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:Cancel your unwanted subscriptions and reach your financial goals faster at https://rocketmoney.com/braincandyVisit https://shopbeam.com/braincandy and use code BRAINCANDY to get our exclusive discount of up to 35% off.For 50% off your order, head to https://www.dailylook.com and use code BRAINCANDYGet 40% off your first box PLUS get a free item in every box for life.

This episode is sponsored in part by Betterhelp. In Part 2 of our conversation with Amanda Rae, we pick up right where we left off—so if you haven't heard Part 1 yet, go back and listen first. In this episode, Amanda shares the final breaking point that led her to leave the Kingston Clan, also known as The Order, and the harrowing events surrounding her dramatic escape at just 17. We dive into the emotional toll of indoctrination, the long process of deconstructing belief systems, and what it takes to rebuild an identity after growing up in a high-control religious group. Amanda speaks candidly about self-awareness, survivor's guilt, family estrangement, and the dark side of reality TV—including her experience on Escaping Polygamy and the exploitation survivors faced behind the scenes. This episode is a raw, deeply moving reminder of the resilience it takes to not only survive—but to speak out. Amanda's story continues to empower others seeking freedom, healing, and the courage to trust themselves. If you're in a high-control group and looking for support, Holding Out Help offers free assistance to those trying to leave. And if you want to hear more from Amanda, including firsthand accounts from others who've left The Order, check out her YouTube channel: @TheAmandaRaeGrant.

Everything's bigger in Texas — including the laughs, confessions, and jaw-dropping stories on this outrageous new episode of Undressed with Pol' and Patrik, recorded live from the Warwick in Dallas with reality royalty LeeAnne Locken! Known for her fiery presence on The Real Housewives of Dallas, LeeAnne wastes no time diving into the drama — and neither do your fabulous hosts, Pol' and Patrik. From her obsession with espresso to her absolute ban on Dallas tap water, LeeAnne makes her diva standards hilariously clear — and throws major shade at Patrik's month-old plastic bottle habit. The water wars quickly turn into a full-blown roast as the trio trades stories about recycled germs, nightstand bottles, and who really drinks what at dinner. But the biggest surprise? LeeAnne reveals her gritty childhood spent traveling with the carnival — yes, the kind with rigged games, sketchy carnies, and duck pond booths. By age 11, she was a business-owning “carny queen” making bank off rigged soda bottle tosses and traveling from city to city with her mom. She shares chilling and hilarious tales of life behind the games, including a near-miss with a rattlesnake, and how cussing saved her life (and finally got her dad's attention). The journey continues from carnival chaos to the glitzy pageant world as LeeAnne shares how she became Miss Arizona USA, nearly competed alongside Shanna Moakler, and even caught the judging eye of Pol' back in the day. She opens up about representing Arizona during the Guy Rex era, training at the famed Robert Black Agency, and crossing over into the modeling world. Reality TV fans get an inside peek at LeeAnne's early reality stints, including She's Got the Look on the Style Network, where she was judged by Beverly Johnson and hosted by Kim Alexis. Her time on Star Search with Ed McMahon is equally juicy — and personal for Pol', who designed winning gowns for that very show. And just when you think it couldn't get any juicier, Pol' performs his signature Armenian coffee reading for LeeAnne — and the revelations are deep. From finally feeling peace in her life to someone from her past re-entering her orbit, LeeAnne reflects on letting go, forgiveness, and what it means to find new purpose. She opens up about her close relationship with her late grandmother, the Bible she keeps beside her bed, and her dreams that still connect them. We also get heartfelt moments about DIFFA (Design Industry Foundation Fighting AIDS), where LeeAnne has been a passionate contributor and advocate. She encourages listeners to support this meaningful cause — and we learn Pol' is designing a custom denim jacket for this year's gala! The episode wraps with tequila toasts, spiritual clarity, and of course, nonstop shade and sass — just the way we like it.

Sarah and her gf got a caricature, and it is truly the stuff of nightmares. We debate whether the "artist" was intentionally making it awful, why he wanted to give her gigantic boobs, and what message he was trying to send. Sarah watched a new series on Netflix and now she is fascinated by equine social culture, but is simultaneously against horse racing. We do have some questions about horse transportation--not when you ride a horse, but when the horse takes a road trip to get to the next race. We discuss an algae bloom that is turning seals into rabid beasts and Sarah thinks it's a foreboding about the apocalypse. We learn about Alice Ball who cured a killer disease, but the credit was given to some douchebags who didn't do a darn thing. Plus, we hear about a pest that is terrorizing a town and Susie somehow relates it to how she's a pretty randy gal. And Sarah ruins cicadas for all of us.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: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.

This episode is sponsored in part by Betterhelp. In this week's episode, we chat with Amanda Rae, survivor of the infamous Kingston clan, a radical Mormon sect also known as “The Order.” If you've seen Escaping Polygamy on A&E, you might recognize Amanda from the show, where she helped others flee the same secretive and abusive group she escaped at just 17. Amanda shares what it was like growing up in a world built on polygamy, incest, and “pure bloodlines”—including the pressure to marry her cousin, her father's multiple incestuous marriages, and the cult's obsession with racial purity. She walks us through the shocking inner workings of the Kingston clan: secret banks, isolation tactics, assigned marriages, and the terrifying consequences of trying to leave. This is the first half of Amanda's harrowing story of survival, recovery, and advocacy. Stay tuned for Part 2 later this week.

In an age of growing wealth disparities, politicians on both sides of the aisle are sounding the alarm about the fading American Dream. Yet despite all evidence to the contrary, many still view the United States as the land of opportunity. The American Mirage: How Reality TV Upholds the Myth of Meritocracy (Princeton University Press, 2025) addresses this puzzle by exposing the stark reality of today's media landscape, revealing how popular entertainment media shapes politics and public opinion in an increasingly news-avoiding nation.Drawing on an eclectic array of original data, Dr. Eunji Kim demonstrates how, amid a dazzling array of media choices, many Americans simply are not consuming the news. Instead, millions flock to entertainment programs that showcase real-life success stories, such as American Idol, Shark Tank, and MasterChef. Dr. Kim examines how shows like these leave viewers confoundingly optimistic about the prospects of upward mobility, promoting a false narrative of rugged individualism and meritocracy that contradicts what is being reported in the news.By taking seriously what people casually watch every day, The American Mirage shows how rags-to-riches programs perpetuate the myth of the American Dream, glorifying the economic winners, fostering tolerance for income inequality, and dampening support for redistributive policies that could improve people's lives. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Susie is sharing a tragic tale of why her dancing at the gay wedding was cut short. They also had a peek at each other's sacral dimples and will update you about their size, scope, and scale. Is bigger better? Find out. Susie watched a documentary about songwriting and they discuss the mystery and wonder of the "flow state," what we think causes inspiration, and why it's so curious. We learn about an unhoused person who won the California lottery, and while we're happy for him, Susie is a little judge-y and she has some tough news for him about the price of life these days. We think he might be being a little optimistic about how far that money can go. We discuss a new "sport" where men are, wait for it, racing their sperm. Sigh. Scientists are very excited about narwals playing with their food, but we can't quite figure out why. Susie watched a documentary about tornados, and wants to remind people to stay safe out there. Plus, we reminisce about the lunacy of Balloon Boy, who for one hilarious day was the star of the internet.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:For 20% off your order, head to https://www.harvesthosts.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.

Hey Heal Squad! We're back with Part 2 of our powerful conversation with Hannah Brown, and this time, we're going deeper into the heart. Hannah is opening up about her decision to start couples therapy with her fiancé Adam—not because something was wrong, but because they wanted to build a strong foundation for marriage. She talks about her avoidant attachment style, the trauma that shaped it, and how therapy has helped her feel seen, safe, and connected in ways she never thought possible. We also dive into Hannah's latest season of life—between planning a wedding, writing her second novel, and working through lingering health issues like narcolepsy and inflammation flare-ups. Plus, she shares some of her favorite wellness rituals, beauty hacks, and the deeper emotional themes behind her new book The Four Engagement Rings of Sybil Rain. If you've ever struggled to feel safe in love, felt unseen in a relationship, or wondered if healing your past is possible, this episode is for you.

Jim Carrey gave critics a new view into his talents in the Peter Weir hit, The Truman Show. Back in 1998, the psychological comedy-drama captivated audiences with its unique premise: a reality TV world that “is not fake but controlled.” Yes, we followed dear Truman as he was hoodwinked daily by everyone in his life, all for the sake of ratings. But now, decades of reality TV concepts later, is the movie interesting enough to hold up to today's outrageous standards? Did Meryl and Marlon really kiss their real lives goodbye to live a lie? And why is Christof (Ed Harris) the worst? The Old Roommates set sail for answers and discuss it all through their middle-aged lens. Join them, with no commercial interruptions!Old Roommates can be reached via email at oldroommatespod@gmail.com.

We are still riding the high of officiating a gay wedding because it was EPIC! We'll never top it. Congrats to Tyler and Timmi! Sarah is super into Crypto all of a sudden, well, not really, but she is understanding why artists saw potential in the NFT trend. We discuss the new Academy Award rule that mandates people watch the movies before voting, which, uh duh, but also Susie gets crabby about how actors think they're doing way more important work than they are, and we go off on one about how there's no such thing as a fair competition. We learn about the new color scientists discovered, why Susie thinks we need more info, and Sarah wants to discover one too. Sarah bursts our bubble about going to space. Turns out no one has actually ever been there, and not in the conspiracy theory kind of way. We rant about those ladies who went to space again. And we hear why hobbies are becoming cost-prohibitive.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:Save 20% off Honeylove by going to https://www.honeylove.com/braincandy #honeylovepodGet 40% off with my code BRAINCANDY at https://cozyearth.comVisit https://www.carawayhome.com/BRAINCANDY to take an additional 10% 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.

Bachelor Contestants have spoken out about how dates, meltdowns, and interactions were directed by producers. Pawn Stars admits to rehearsing and choosing their interactions. House Hunters pretends to have them choose between three houses, but their house was already purchased. The other two were just for the show. Survivor contestants admit to getting help and storylines from off camera. Storage Wars producers place valuable items in the lockers to make it seem more exciting and profitable. Property Brothers is fake. Catfish is fake. Love Island is fake. And like - fine. It's all fake. We can argue that because we all know, or because it is sometimes very obvious, that it doesn't matter. But it does because it shifts our idea of normal and acceptable. It makes us feel like everyone behaves like a character. It convinces us that we're not normal if we're not always camera ready. But because it's normal to sell us things plan your vacation around instagram, or stage your house because you want to look cool on a tiktok, or have a face filter every time you post, It's not just becoming harder to tell what's fake, there's simply very little left that isn't.
