    Earth, Wind, & Fire, Tyra's Lawsuit, & Tattoo Typo

    We're talking about the Earth, Wind, & Fire documentary, and the wild story of this funky 70s band. We discuss the insane hypocrisy of Tyra Banks suing Netflix over the America's Next Top Model documentary in which she participated. Turns out, it's not fun to be at the mercy of editors trying to tell a particular story. A woman got a tattoo of her child's name, but there was a typo, and her solution is WILD. We celebrate the pianist who got the chance of a lifetime to perform when the pro keyboardist fell ill at a concert. We debate the question of custody of an embryo in the event of a divorce. Susie talks about a mummy whose gut was growing yeast, and we are not happy with what the scientists decided to do with it. We'll give you one dumb guess.

    Hey Bear, Noise Festival, & Cursed Cursive

    Sarah is hyped about her new look. We're calling it athletic chic. We learn about a religious festival where people compete to make the most noise, and in so doing, priceless art pieces were destroyed. We find out the details of the world's most expensive home, and Susie wishes the owner a lifetime of pain and agony. Susie's sister is fact checking Sarah about how to deal with a bear sighting, and we just hope we're never in that position because there's some confusion. A gym is being sued because the "grunting" of the members is so loud the neighbors can't get a moment's rest. We lament the death of cursive handwriting and also (the atrocious) spelling of humans. We are mad about horse-drawn carriages. Why do they still exist? But good news--cereal boxes are bringing back toys. Finally! Plus, we hear how scientists discovered that fog is ALIVE.

    Susie went for her eye appointment, so she's glowing, obviously. Hear what the inside of her eye looks like and how her doctor crush is going. Sarah reveals a statistic about women in movies, and it's not good news. We learn what kind of music animals like to get it on to and it makes us wonder if certain songs are more appealing to ADHD brains. We learn how they found out that pigeons were hanging out with humans 1,000 years before we used to think. We find out why the United States was fighting with other countries over bird poop. Sarah comments on Rosie O'Donnell's facelift, and explains why she thinks Rosie's on to something. Susie talks about her hatred of Brad Pitt and his dumb hair.

    Red Panda, Drowning in Space, & Choking Signal

    Susie talks about Red Panda, the half-time phenom, who rides a 7ft tall unicycle whilst throwing plates with her feet onto her head. It's a whole thing. We find out about an astronaut who almost drowned on a "routine" spacewalk, which has Sarah reeling. We find out how Sarah almost choked to death, but more importantly, Susie found out she does NOT know the international sign for choking. We hear how WiFi can identify people in the room, and it's creepy af. Susie's sister questions Sarah's advice about saying, "Hey, bear!" to scare off bears. We learn why American horses are obese.

    Famous Houses, Glamorous Priest, & Gifting Suite

    Sarah is back from Vegas where she attended the Enhanced Games, which allow competitors to use any FDA substance they want. We celebrate that, but we mourn the loss of buffets. Bring back the buffet! Susie watched a documentary about houses featured in movies and TV shows and the people who live in them. We hear why some owners hate it and others embrace their famous residences. We learned about the man who founded the E.L.F. makeup brand, who has received a higher calling and joined the priesthood! Susie watched the Hollywood Demons episode about Saved By the Bell, and we discuss the perils of childhood stardom and the tragedy of Screech's real life. Plus, we reminisce about the hilarious "star" experience we got when we were invited to the worst gifting suite of all time, but it keeps us humble. 00:00 - Sarah's Vegas Trip to the Enhanced Games and Athletic Performance 12:53 - Mourning the Loss of All-You-Can-Eat Buffets in Las Vegas 21:50 - Revisiting Ted Danson's Controversial Blackface Roast of Whoopi Goldberg 28:28 - The Real-Life Owners of Iconic Movie and TV Show Homes 39:30 - From E.L.F.

    Restored Bull Balls, Banana Art, & Lottery Luck

    Susie is mad about birds and chipmunks and Sarah is mad about noise pollution, but it's clear they're both old ladies. Susie also had an e-bike accident, and it's a fun reminder to drive sober. Also, if you love data, get a keychain breathalyzer. Sarah talks about a mosaic of a bull at an Italian mall that needed some sprucing up, but apparently the artist who restored it sucked, well, balls. We also learn about other art Sarah is mad at including the Art Basel Comedian piece where a banana is taped to a wall, and the reason it's in the news again. Plus, we hear about a man who won the lottery because his wife was being annoying, and now we think we should win the lottery with our listeners. 00:00 - Birds, Squirrels, and Noise Pollution: Our Old Lady Grievances 07:07 - Susie's E-Bike Accident: Don't Drink and Drive 21:11 - Testing the Keychain Breathalyzer: Data on Drinking and Driving 25:53 - The Castrated Bull Mosaic: A Disastrous Art Restoration 35:33 - The $6 Million Banana and the Problem with Tech Bros in Art 49:59 - Annoying Wife Leads to a $315 Million Lottery Win 01:02:57 - Nicotine Addiction: Some People Can't Get Addicted 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/streams Brain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcast Host Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeister Host Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahrice Brain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypod Brain 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 up to 65% off your order, head to https://veracityhealth.co and use code BRAINCANDY Save 20% Off Honeylove by going to https://www.honeylove.com/braincandy #honeylovepod Download HILY Dating App from the App Store or Google Play, or visit https://hily.go.link/4iJ1l TDM-RESERVATION: 1.

We get mad about the men in Laos who got trapped in a cave because of the reason they went in there. We learn about the weather app "wet bias," and discuss why the apps were already on thin ice with Sarah.

    Let's Get Physical, Old Lady Fashion, & Netflix Lawsuit

    Susie has another pretend enemy (pretenemy?), and despite the Hippocratic oath, she is claiming her doctor doing harm. Sarah wants to know what old ladies are supposed to wear these days because her cowboy chic situation isn't exactly couture, but she likes being comfy. We learn about a man who is suing Netflix for creating a movie that he claims is too similar to his life, even though they say any similarity is, you guessed it, purely coincidental. We discuss the Titan submersible and how the wife/mother of two of the victims claims she was given their "bodies" in a very disturbing form. We celebrate the ways Mariska Hargitay is making a difference for victims of assault. And we debate the virtues of living a "random" life with the help of an app. 00:00 - Susie's Physical and Doctor Dislikes 12:18 - Try the Best Bone Broth on the Planet 15:02 - Sarah's Struggle with Modern Fashion Trends 25:13 - Relax in Cozy Earth Pajamas and Bedding 28:22 - The Tragic Story of Maldives Cave Divers 36:41 - Diver Sues Netflix Over Life Story Adaptation 40:53 - Disturbing Details from Titan Submersible Victim's Wife 42:22 - Keep Track of your Finances with Rocket Money 44:31 - Clearing Rape Kit Backlogs with Mariska Hargitay 48:28 - Why Billionaires Chase More Money and Power 54:05 - Debating the 'He's So Random' Life App 58:55 - Reflecting on Doctors, Fashion, and Randomness 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/streams Brain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcast Host Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeister Host Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahrice Brain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypod Brain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT) Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love: Head to https://cozyearth.com and use my code BRAINCANDY for an exclusive 20% off.  Head to https://www.brodo.com/CANDY for 20% off your first subscription order and use code CANDY for an additional $10 off.
