The Washington Roundtable discusses Donald Trump's threats to “nationalize” elections in fifteen states, the recent F.B.I. raid to seize 2020 voting records at an election facility in Fulton County, Georgia, and the ways in which the Administration might meddle with a free and fair vote in 2026. Their guest, Richard Hasen, is the director of the Safeguarding Democracy Project at U.C.L.A.'s School of Law. “I actually think that now is the time to be preparing for this,” Hasen says. “I think states and localities should think about getting injunctions from federal courts against Donald Trump to prevent him from interfering with the tabulation of ballots.”This week's reading: “Donald Trump Already Knows the 2026 Election Is ‘Rigged,' ” by Susan B.

Send us a textGUEST: GREG GIFFORD, author, Lies My Therapist Told MeThe statistics are staggering: one in five people in America have been diagnosed with a “mental illness.” One in six people are taking powerful psychotropic medications, such as anti-depressants, anti-anxieties, and stimulants. Many Christians have been trapped in the vortex of the “mental health industry” as well.And here's the troubling part in the majority of the cases: wrong diagnoses lead to wrong and harmful treatments.Our guest this weekend is Greg Gifford. He is the chair of the School of Biblical Studies at The Master's University, a fellow at the Fortis Institute, and author of the compelling new book, Lies My Therapist Told Me: Why Christians Should Aim for More Than Just Treating Symptoms. He will explain the important distinction between the immaterial mind and the material brain and how God's Word is all-sufficient to renew the mind to think and live for God's glory.---------------------------------Lies My Therapist Told Me - From beloved Christian counselor, professor, and podcaster Greg Gifford comes a bold critique of the mental health establishment. Therapy can backfire and fail, but Christ offers more.336 pgs, hardcover
Zurvanism is a lesser-known feature of ancient Zoroastrianism that centers on Zurvan, the god of infinite time, and the cosmic struggle between Ahura Mazda and Angra Mainyu. In this video, we explore the origins, beliefs, and historical influence of Zurvanism, what it is and isn't, and why it matters for understanding ancient Persian religion and dualism.Check out Soul Roots:https://www.youtube.com/@UCX0IxGB0xYS5kV3IX-KbBPQ Find me and my music here:https://linktr.ee/filipholmSupport Let's Talk Religion on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/letstalkreligion Or through a one-time donation: https://paypal.me/talkreligiondonateSources/Recommended Reading:Boyce, Mary (1957).

[School of Movies 2026] For this episode we were lucky enough to be able to bring in stand-up comedian and 18th Century history nut Jenny Zigrino. We gave Jenny free reign on the choice of movie to talk about and she went for her favourite; the story of the greatest composer who ever lived, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. This masterpiece, directed by Milos Foreman and based on a 1979 stage play swept the Oscars in 1985 and if you've never had the pleasure you'll soon find out why. You can find Jenny's standup material easily on YouTube, and check out her website where she is currently fundraising for her next show: https://www.jennyzigrino.com/ It was an absolute pleasure to have her on. And for fans of irevenrent sexy alternate history I also showcase one of my own personal favourite projects, The Princess Thieves, the audiodrama of which can be found here: https://newcentury.bandcamp.com/ Guest: Jenny Zigrino
The real reason you don't feel like yourself in midlife...after "fixing" your midlife body.You've done the work to address the physical symptoms of midlife: balanced your hormones, changed your eating, added strength training. And you still don't feel like yourself in midlife.And there's a reason for that. The real work of midlife? That's an inside job.In this bonus episode of the School of Midlife podcast, Laurie is dropping us into a recent masterclass to encourage midlife women stop waiting and start living. Laurie shares her own story of rising out of a moment of deep personal and professional frustration to create what became The School of Midlife. And she names the real reason we get stuck again after the first breakthrough: we need structure, support, and community to keep going.If you've taken a few big steps but don't know what's next—or you're afraid you'll lose the progress you've made—this one's for you.LINKS + MENTIONS:Join the BEST LIFE Lab!
This episode of Inside EMS is brought to you by ZOLL software and data solutions. Optimize EMS performance and outcomes at every stage of operations with interoperable solutions from dispatch, to patient care, QA/QI, billing and beyond. Visit zolldata.com to learn about the complete solution suite. This week on Inside EMS, Chris Cebollero takes on one of the most anxiety-inducing topics in paramedic education: alpha and beta receptors. Sparked by a question from paramedic student April McKenzie, a.k.a., “April Anonymous,” this episode strips away rote memorization and replaces it with something far more useful in the field — understanding the why behind the medicine. There's no fluff here; no cheesy memory tricks that fall apart under stress. Just physiology, practical mental models and a challenge to start practicing medicine with intention. If pharmacology has ever felt random, this episode connects the dots in a way that finally clicks. Quotable takeaways “Every medication you give in EMS is doing one of two things: It's either pushing the gas pedal or it's releasing the brake — that's it. If you don't understand which one you're doing, you're guessing, even if the protocol says you're right.” “We really have to become the ultimate detective of the body.” “Every patient is somewhere between gas and brake at all times. Those systems are constantly working, they're not off. It's just a dimmer switch. Every medication pushes one system or pulls the other system back into play.” Enjoying Inside EMS?

In this episode of the Previously On TV Podcast, fangirl Jillian and her husband Tyler recap School Spirits Season 3, Episode 4, “The Bereftest Club”, a detention-day episode that's basically a haunted, lore-stuffed riff on The Breakfast Club (except the principal has no idea these kids would love being locked in the school).We break down everything that happens across both the living and the dead - Simon nearly gets pulled into the Hell hole (until Wally saves him), Maddie's life spirals as her mom leaves for treatment, and the “detention crew” is juggling panic, research, and cover-ups while Principal Hartman is distracted by the new superintendent Dr. Hunter-Price. Meanwhile, the ghosts uncover a hymnbook from the church in the hell hole, Mr. Martin and Quinn get high and we get a full musical dance sequence, and the episode ends with Simon getting grabbed by a creature called White Eyes.Then we get into why the vibe is full horror this season and bringing major Stephen King vibes (even the addition of Jennifer Tilly is adding to the scream queen tone). Plus the surprisingly emotional character beats: Maddie feeling isolated, Xavier stepping up, and Simon and Wally's bond deepening.And because this episode DROPS. SO. MUCH. INFO… we count down our Top 5 Lore Drops, including: Yuri's scar and how to stop resets, the “Cornerstone” stone tape theory, the church tragedy under the school, and the biggest reveal of all - The Forgotten and White Eyes.Finally, we go full conspiracy board with theories: Is White Eyes someone we know? Who exactly are The Forgotten? Is Mr. Martin's past tied to the original church tragedy? What does Dr. Hunter-Price know (and why the surveillance feels… ominous)? Plus: do objects brought into scars hint at a loophole or portal situation?Stone Tape theory: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stone_Tape_theory00:00:00 Musical dance sequence00:02:30 Intro to podcast00:04:42 Recap of "The Bereftest Club"00:07:38 Review of ep 400:17:25 Top 5 Lore Drops00:17:51 Yuri's scar and preventing resets00:24:32 Nurse and Maddie's dad00:29:36 Mr. South and Stone Tape theory00:33:34 School built on church graveyard00:39:13 The Forgotten and White Eyes00:43:02 Maddie's visions and dollhouse miniatures00:46:23 Ghost minds vs bodies00:49:01 Video surveillance and Dr. Hunter-Price00:50:51 Theories and predictions00:51:01 Who is White Eyes creature?01:02:27 Who are The Forgotten?01:04:54 Dr. Hunter-Price motives01:05:55 Maddie's visions01:07:54 Tyler's Takes01:08:42 Calling it "Hell hole"01:08:59 Simon's podcast01:09:54 Wally's movie suitcase01:10:55 Simon losing watch01:12:11 Quinn is into Rhonda?01:13:08 Miniatures creepy01:13:16 Principal Mr. Hartman01:13:41 Xavier writing essaysCheck out our shot-by-shot comparison of School Spirits and Carrie (1976): https://www.instagram.com/p/DUO1IT5AVnS/School Spirits Season 3 Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Hx7kbgJeiEThank you to Matt Buechele (@mattbooshell) for creating our new theme song.

Egos will be bruised. Homework is mandatory.
Experiencing insomnia, restless nights, or waking up feeling tired even after a long night's sleep?Have you noticed how sleep issues often come and go with stress, overstimulation, or irregular routines?From Ayurveda, we know sleep disturbances aren't random or something to override with quick fixes.Nidra, or rest, is one of the four pillars of health. It's essential for balanced agni (digestion), the development of ojas (immunity or zest for life) and a calm, clear mind. When sleep is disturbed, the doshas become aggravated, especially vata, and true restoration through digestion cannot occur.In this episode, you'll discover:• Why sound, restful sleep is a sign of true health• The most common sleep disturbances and their root causes in Ayurveda• How overstimulation, digestion, and daily routines impact sleep quality• Why sleeping pills and over-the-counter aids don't resolve the root cause• Simple, natural practices to restore deep, nourishing sleep and resilienceReady to dive deeper into the practices of Ayurveda and guide others to do the same to support their well-being and heal from difficult symptoms and diseases?

Due to a severe famine in Canaan, Abram takes his household to sojourn in Egypt. Out of fear that they will kill him on account of Sarai's beauty, Abram instructs her to say that she is his sister. Although Abram has God's promise, he attempts to help God keep it. God does, in fact, keep His promise to Abram by causing Pharaoh to deal well with Abram and enrich his household. The LORD uses a plague to prevent Pharaoh from sinning against Sarai and Abram, and Pharaoh sends them on their way back to Canaan. Rev. Ned Moerbe, pastor at Memorial Lutheran Church and School in Houston, TX, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Genesis 12:10-20. To learn more about Memorial Lutheran, visit mlchouston.org. “In the Beginning” is a series on Sharper Iron that studies Genesis. The first book of Moses sets the stage for God's entire story of salvation. As we learn the beginning of the story, God prepares us to receive the fulfillment of the story: Jesus Christ, the Offspring of the woman who has crushed our enemy's head. Sharper Iron, hosted by Rev. Timothy Appel, looks at the text of Holy Scripture both in its broad context and its narrow detail, all for the sake of proclaiming Christ crucified and risen for sinners. Two pastors engage with God's Word to sharpen not only their own faith and knowledge, but the faith and knowledge of all who listen. Submit comments or questions to: listener@kfuo.org
Send us a textWhat if the fastest way to connect with your child wasn't advice, but better questions? Casey Jacox sits down with Shelby Stephens—dad of three, AI founder of Snacker, and lifelong learner—to explore how curiosity, calibrated vulnerability, and learner-led education can transform family life. From swapping “How was school?” for targeted T.E.D. questions to telling honest stories that don't overburden kids, we map out a practical toolkit any parent can adopt.Shelby opens up about choosing Acton Academy for his daughters, a model that replaces grades and homework with mastery badges, adaptive learning apps, and a studio contract kids write and sign. The outcome is powerful: children set their own goals, self-assess progress, and learn to hold themselves accountable. We talk through a pivotal moment—his daughter giving herself Xs on missed goals—and what it reveals about discipline, ownership, and intrinsic motivation. We also dig into EQ: why collaboration, boundary-setting, and healthy tech use might matter more than memorizing facts in a world rapidly reshaped by AI.Beyond school, we lean into the inner game of parenting. Shelby shares small, durable habits—meditation, gratitude, micro-commitments—that improve presence and lower reactivity. We round out with Snacker.ai's mission to remove friction from sharing knowledge on video, and a nod to Shelby's music as another outlet for creative expression.If you're curious about raising self-directed kids, making vulnerability safe, and becoming a more present parent, this conversation delivers clear steps you can try today.

If you're ready to live an undistracted life, join me in the School of Self-Image Membership. https://schoolofselfimage.com/join Can I tell you about something that happened to me recently? I developed a habit. It started innocently enough – just a little extra scrolling during a difficult time. But soon, I was reaching for my phone instead of a book. Checking the news before I'd even made my morning coffee. After a month of this, something felt off. I felt empty. Scattered. Not like my usual focused, happy, life-loving self. Then I saw my screen time report: four hours a day. On average. I thought about everything I could have done, read, created during that time – and it became clear. I needed to fix this. So I put myself through a Distraction Detox, and I did it in four steps. Here's what we cover: • Why distraction isn't a discipline problem, but your brain trying to avoid discomfort • How the pain–pleasure principle quietly pulls you toward scrolling instead of creating • The hidden cost of low-quality consumption on your self-image, focus, and confidence • The emerging divide between the creator class and the consumer class and why it matters • How distraction reinforces an identity of avoidance while focus builds power and momentum • The four-part Distraction Detox that helps you reclaim your attention and your life Did you enjoy this episode?

The LORD speaks to Abram and tells him to leave his homeland to go to the place the LORD will show. The LORD gives His promise to Abram that he will become a great nation through whom all the families of the earth will be blessed. Though the line of the Seed will go through this family, He will still come for all the world. In faith, Abram goes as the LORD had spoken, passing through the whole land and worshiping the LORD.

Guest: Dr. Lee Warren, Board-Certified Neurosurgeon Introduction: What if you could change your brain by changing your mind? Board-certified neurosurgeon Dr. Lee Warren joins us to reveal something revolutionary: you're not stuck with the brain you have. Through groundbreaking neuroscience research, we now know that what you repeatedly think about literally restructures your brain. For parents learning to live from agency instead of control, understanding what's actually happening in your nervous system changes everything. Dr. Warren's new book, The Life-Changing Art of Self-Brain Surgery: Connecting Neuroscience and Faith to Radically Transform Your Life, releases February 3, 2026. You're in the right place if: You wonder why you keep defaulting to control, even when you want to parent from peace It feels impossible to break old patterns even though you know the truth Your child struggles with thoughts like "I'm stupid," "I'll never learn," or "everyone else can do this but me." You avoid letting your kids struggle because you want to protect them from pain You want to understand the neuroscience behind why fear-based parenting creates control operating systems in your children You're ready to break generational patterns of fear and shame in your family Episode Highlights: Mind vs. Brain - The Revolutionary Truth Traditional neuroscience has taught that your brain generates everything about you—your personality, memories, even your sense of having a mind. But here's the problem: there's no actual science proving this is true. It's just a theory. Through functional MRI imaging developed around 2000, we can now see what really happens: your mind directs your brain, not the other way around. Your brain is like your kidneys or heart—an organ that carries out the interaction of your mind with the world. This changes everything. The Neuroscience of Fear vs. Gratitude When you're afraid, your amygdala (a walnut-sized area in your limbic system) triggers fight-or-flight responses. It's tiny and can't think well—it can only react. But your hippocampus acts like a one-way switch: it either triggers your amygdala OR your frontal lobes (billions of neurons designed for rational thinking). The deciding factor? Fear or gratitude. You literally cannot be grateful and anxious at the same time. This is exactly what Paul described in Philippians 4:6-8 two thousand years ago: "Don't be anxious, be grateful instead...think about what's noble, true, lovely..." Paul was 2,000 years ahead of neuroscience. The Auburn University Discovery Dr. Warren shares the pivotal moment at Auburn University's MRI Research Center when he and his wife Lisa watched a patient's brain respond to different thoughts in real-time. When thinking about the worst day of her life, her amygdala lit up, blood pressure rose, heart rate increased. When thinking about her happiest memory, frontal lobes activated, peace indicators appeared, blood pressure and heart rate dropped. That's when God spoke to Dr. Warren: "When you do surgery, you intentionally make a structural change in someone's brain to improve their life. When someone changes from harmful thoughts to helpful thoughts, they're also intentionally making structural changes in their brain to improve their life. That's surgery too—self-brain surgery." The Power of Anti-Fragility We've been taught that humans are fragile—easily broken and needing protection. But Scripture, neuroscience, psychology, and social science all agree: we're actually anti-fragile. You can't be as strong as you're capable of being without being broken a few times along the way. Romans 5:3-5 explains the process: suffering produces endurance, endurance produces character, and character produces hope. Your mid-anterior cingulate (the part of your brain that handles willpower and resilience) literally gets stronger when you do hard things you don't want to do. George's Story - From Dyslexia to Fearless Dr. Warren's 7-year-old grandson George couldn't read despite being brilliant at everything else. He was diagnosed with dyslexia and worked with a tutor for 8 months, making up 3 grade years in reading. When George called his grandfather and said, "Pop, I'm a reader!" everyone wept. But here's the lesson: George is now fearless at age 10 because he faced the hardest thing in his life—not being able to read—and overcame it. If his parents had blamed the school or lowered standards, George would still be afraid of things he doesn't know how to manage. Instead, he knows nothing in his entire life will be as hard as learning to read, and he did it anyway. Mary's Story - From "I'm Stupid" to Syracuse Graduate Janet shares about 10-year-old Mary who had every learning label and refused to pick up a pencil or book. When learning to type, every mistake beep triggered outrage: "I'm stupid, I'll never learn, you hate me." After 3 days, Janet transcribed Mary's words on a whiteboard and asked, "Can we call this list 'lies'?" They created a truth list: next to "I'm stupid" was "I'm capable," next to "you hate me" was "you believe in me." Mary's new instruction: every time she heard the beep, name the truth. Beep. Truth. Beep. Truth. Struggle, truth. In 3 weeks, Mary typed 35 words per minute with 98% accuracy. She recently graduated from Syracuse University on a creative writing scholarship. The Critical Lesson for Parents Don't just let your kids suffer—teach them to struggle well in truth. Many of us developed unhealthy willpower and over-functioned in dysfunctional environments out of fear, not agency. When you teach children that everything they think isn't true and that even when something is true, there's more to the truth God wants them to see, you're giving them the tools for transformation. Come alongside them. Show them how to confess their story to God, ask Him what's true, then walk in that truth. The Three Sources of Thoughts Not every thought you think comes from you. Thoughts come from three sources: (1) your brain's automated patterns, (2) yourself and the Holy Spirit, or (3) the enemy. Learning to discern which source is speaking—and training your children to do the same—is essential for self-brain surgery. Key Takeaways: Start practicing self-brain surgery today. When you're triggered or afraid, confess your actual story to God. Ask Him what's true. Walk in that truth. Let your kids see you do this. Do one hard thing you don't want to do. Your mid-anterior cingulate cortex gets the signal that you're the kind of person who can do hard things, making all future hard things easier. This works for your kids too. Let your children suffer when it's safe to do so. Don't protect them from scraped knees, failed tests, or rejected friendship notes. Their brains are built for this. The Bible promises it. Your child needs evidence that they can survive hard things before they face the next hard thing. Teach the "two truths" practice. When your child says "I'm stupid" or "I'll never learn," acknowledge their feeling ("Yes, this is hard right now") AND teach them to name the truth ("AND you're capable, AND you're learning, AND struggle doesn't define you"). Focus on what you're grateful for, not what scares you. Your hippocampus is a one-way switch—it either activates your fear response or your thinking brain, but not both. Practice gratitude to literally change your brain chemistry and model this for your children. Remember: the generational chaos ends now. God has declared it, and He's made your mind and brain to promise it's true. You can't give what you haven't received, so do this work for your sake AND your children's sake. Closing Thought: "Let your adversity make you more like Christ. It will make you more of who you're supposed to be. The more we stop thinking 'I want to live my own truth and follow my own way' and instead follow His way, the closer we get to Him, the better we use our brains, the better we use our hearts, the more alive we become, the more free we become." - Dr. Lee Warren Resources: Dr. Lee Warren's new book: The Life-Changing Art of Self-Brain Surgery: Connecting Neuroscience and Faith to Radically Transform Your Life (Available everywhere books are sold, including an audio version read by Dr. Warren) Website: DrLeeWarren.com (for books, podcast, YouTube, Instagram, and the School of Self-Brain Surgery) Dr. Lee Warren's podcast Connect with Love Is Fearless: Email: janet@john15academy.com Contact information for Formation Cohorts and family consulting.

What if the real reason your relationship feels off has nothing to do with love and everything to do with how you handle conflict?In this episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast, I sat down with my brother Jayson Gaddis for one of the realest conversations I've had about relationships, conflict, masculinity, and what it actually takes to build a thriving partnership while still chasing big dreams. Jayson is the founder of The Relationship School, a Wall Street Journal bestselling author of Getting to Zero, a husband, a father, and a former licensed psychotherapist who has spent decades in the trenches helping couples repair connection and communicate better. Over 100,000 people have gone through his programs, and it's easy to see why this dude doesn't sugarcoat the truth, but he delivers it with heart, humility, and wisdom.This episode matters because a lot of high-performing entrepreneurs are unknowingly burning down their most important relationship while trying to build everything else. We're great at hiring coaches for business, fitness, and money, but when it comes to marriage or partnership, we assume we should “just know.” Jayson breaks that myth wide open and shows why conflict isn't the problem… avoiding it is.One of the biggest takeaways for me was how ego and defensiveness quietly sabotage connection. Jayson explains how many men react from shame without realizing it, and how that defensiveness blocks intimacy and trust. Another powerful lesson was reframing conflict as a skill, not a sign you're with the wrong person. Conflict is inevitable. Learning how to repair is what separates relationships that grow stronger from those that slowly erode.We also dive deep into one of the most practical tools I've ever learned for communication: LUFU—Listen Until the other person Feels Understood. Sounds simple, but it's a total game-changer. Jayson walks through how to actually do it in real life, not theory, and why leading with understanding, not apologies, calms the nervous system and creates safety. That alone can transform how arguments end… and how connected you feel afterward.Another huge insight was understanding attachment styles, why one partner often wants space while the other wants to talk, and how those childhood patterns show up under stress. When you can recognize the dynamic underneath the argument, everything shifts. You stop fighting the person and start addressing the pattern.Finally, Jayson brings it home with a reminder we all need: great relationships aren't built when things feel easy; they're built through consistent repair, honest conversations, and a willingness to grow. Just like the gym, you don't work on your relationship only when it's broken. You train it for the long game.If you want to build a business you're proud of and a relationship that actually fuels your life instead of draining it, this episode is a must-listen. What does Happy Hustlin mean to you?Jayson says it means I'm working hard, it's not coming at the expense of my marriage or my kids or my own health and well-being.

This is my second of three episodes about toileting and PDA (Pathological Demand Avoidance or Pervasive Drive for Autonomy).This episode is focused on what to do if your child has challenges with:1 - Wiping2 - Accidents3 - Holding and constipation4 - Pooping outside the toilet5 - Peeing outside the toiletOf course, I'm talking through taking a PDA/nervous system approach to helping your child or teen with these challenges. If you want to take a deeper dive into understanding why your PDA child or teen has these challenges, please check out my previous podcast episode (Ep. 142).Also, in this episode I mention the decision making process I teach parents who are trying to decide when they should change their child or teen's diaper if doing so causes activation. If you want to learn more about making such decisions (or others), I teach how to do so in my free masterclass: School, Screens and Siblings, Oh My!

Parents are overwhelmed with school choices—and most are being asked to decide without the information that actually matters. Research shows students don't learn more because a teacher is certified, experienced, or passionate. They learn more when they believe their teacher knows what they're doing, cares about them, and can actually help them succeed. In this episode, we break down one of the highest-impact findings in all of education research: teacher credibility, with an effect size of 0.90—meaning it has more impact on learning than class size, homework, or school type. We'll explore what builds or breaks credibility, why student perception matters more than adult intention, and the seven evidence-based conditions students need to learn—including safety, belonging, emotional regulation, appropriate challenge, relevance, feedback, and consistency. If you're questioning traditional school, exploring alternatives, or trying to understand what actually helps children learn, this episode will give you clarity, confidence, and research-backed insight to make informed decisions. ----more---- Microschool Masterminds: skool.com/microschool-masterminds Every Thursday from 12-1 pm (EST), join Makenzie Oliver, microschool founder, VELA connector, and instructional coach, along with other founders, parents, and dreamers, as we connect, inspire, and progress through the challenges and celebrations of starting, running, and growing a microschool!

We discuss the Elizabeth Smart documentary about her kidnapping and miraculous rescue, and the complicated nature of healing from that trauma. We learn about a graduate student who was offended when people in the department asked him to stop microwaving his "pungent" food, so he sued the school claiming he was discriminated against. We talk about the people who created a secret apartment in the mall and lived there for a long time without being detected, why they did it, and whether we love it or are annoyed by it. Susie talks about a woman who was busted for drunk driving and drug possession, but handled it in a hilarious way.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:Visit https://www.carawayhome.com/braincandypod to take an additional 10% off your next purchase!Head to https://cozyearth.com and use my code BRAINCANDYBOGO to get these pj's for you and someone you love!Get $30 off your first box - PLUS free Croissants for life - when you go to https://wildgrain.com/braincandy to start your subscription today!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
