    Happiness in America, Spa Go Me, & Coed Sports

    Sarah and Susie are reuniting in Denver again, and they are psyched. Sarah is talking about life hack's she's trying in the new year. So what, who cares. Sarah claims there are five "approved" lesbian haircuts and we learn what they are. There is some special nail polish that is going viral that is supposed to allow you to color coordinate by changing the color magically, but it ends up looking insane, and Sarah is mad about it.

    Grandma's Name, Service Dogs, & Switched at Birth

    Sarah's outdoor adventures never stop, and this time she ended up in a ski parade! While Susie has resorted to wearing heated apparel inside. Susie shares the story of Andrea Yates, the woman who killed her five children, and the religious beliefs that made her think she should. Susie is worked up about how grandparents now insist on being called all kinds of weird names and Sarah's got a theory about why they don't want to be called "grandma." We discuss the abundance of "service" dogs on planes and the reasons people bend the rules to get their dog on board, and why it's the airlines's fault. And we hear about two babies who were switched at birth and it wasn't discovered until they were two years old, and the moms had to decide whether to switch them back or not! The story is unbelievable, and no matter what, there is no right answer to how to handle it. 00:00 - Sarah's Ski Parade and Susie's Heated Apparel 17:51 - Unpacking the Horrific Andrea Yates Child Drowning Case 23:13 - Examining the Extreme Religious Cult Behind Andrea Yates 30:30 - How Religious Ideology Scaffolds Mental Illness 43:11 - Why Grandparents Resist Being Called 'Grandma' 52:17 - The Airline's Fault for Fake Service Dogs 01:01:34 - The Impossible Choice in a Switched at Birth Case 01:11:39 - Support the Podcast: Patreon, Reviews, and Sponsors 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: Begin your personalized roadmap to sexual happiness with Beducated by taking the quiz at https://beducate.me/pd2602-braincandy LEGAL NOTICE & TERMS OF USE: © 2026 Brain Candy®.

    Members Only, Tantrum Prevention, & Cher's Appendix

    Sarah has a new guilty pleasure called Members Only, but she says it's more like Real Housewives of Mar-a-Lago. We hear why she is fascinated by these ladies (and their clothing). We debate the virtues of changing your last name when you get married, and how certificates and diplomas should be amendable if you change your name. We learn the benefits of pet ownership according to science, and whether it is better or worse for your happiness than having children. Susie wants you all to know it is certainly better than having a teenager. Sarah explains, at long last, what the appendix even does and why it's more important than most people realize. And Susie tells the story of her friend who had to have her appendix removed because she tried to beat Cher in a feat of strength. This is a true and hilarious story. And we find out about a device that measures your child's vitals, and can alert parents of an impending temper tantrum, and we hear whether it's effective in preventing or reducing their severity. 00:00 - Intellectualizing "Members Only: Real Housewives of Mar-a-Lago" 08:09 - Taco Bell 50K Rules and Daily Look Styling Service 13:06 - The Annoyance of Last Names on Diplomas 23:32 - Human-Grade Nutrition for Your Feline Friends 25:55 - Pet Ownership, Happiness, and the Kid Question 36:45 - BetterHelp for Life's Non-Stop Onslaught 39:40 - The Appendix's True Function and Cher's Plank 47:59 - Mayo Clinic's Tantrum Prevention Watch 59:00 - Shushing People, Loud Neighbors, and Podcast Wrap-up 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 50% off your order, head to https://www.dailylook.com and use code BRAINCANDY Get 60% off your first order, plus free shipping, when you head to https://www.smalls.com/braincandy This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.

    Steve Martin Short, Taco Bell 5k, & Cognitive Dissonance

    We're already getting all emotional about coming up on our 1000th episode, and enjoying the fact that all the naysayers were wrong about us being a "showmance." Susie watched the Chevy Chase documentary, and was hoping to find out if he is in fact the a-hole he is often accused of being. Spoiler: he kind of is. We discuss some big news in psychology research, and it turns out maybe everything we thought we knew is wrong? (So what, who cares.) We found out about an ultramarathon that is simultaneously the opposite of our forthcoming (imaginary) flip-flop 5K and also in competition with it. It involves 31 miles and 9 Taco Bell locations. 00:00 - Celebrating 1000 Episodes and Proving Naysayers Wrong 03:36 - Our Steve Martin and Martin Short Dynamic 08:31 - Susie's Winter Woes: No Snow for Skiing 10:15 - Modern, Non-Toxic Cooking with Caraway Cookware 13:20 - Debating the McRib Lawsuit and Food System Issues 18:37 - The Chevy Chase Documentary and White Male Privilege 29:30 - Empowering Your Finances with Rocket Money App 32:37 - Debunking Cognitive Dissonance and Psychology Studies 45:27 - Sarah's Confidence in the Taco Bell 50K Ultramarathon 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: Visit https://www.carawayhome.com/braincandypod and you can take an additional 10% off your next purchase!

    Analog Bags, Leaf Littering, & Denmark's Lost Mail

    We are pretty psyched about our New Year's resolution, and we highly recommend not giving a f*ck to everyone. We learn why Denmark has suspended mail delivery, and we consider whether this is news of progress or a dystopian future. Sarah is extolling the virtues of an "analog bag," and we discuss what we would keep in our bags. Sarah got tricked by AI and we're mad about it. We learn about a man who was fined in England for littering, except the "litter" was a leaf that blew into his mouth and he spit out. WHAT. We learn about a senior living facility that is bringing in cosmetology students (aka a glam squad) to give the residents makeovers. 00:00 - Embracing the 'So What, Who Cares?'

    Octomom, Diddy Doc, & Celebrity Birds

    Sarah has a PSA for ladies thanks to Trivia Pursuit and her aging feet. Hear why you're probably wearing the wrong shoe size. We learn why we were wrong about Octomom, how she is a victim of an unethical system and why she should get more credit. Susie is worked up about the P Diddy documentary, how messed up he seems, and how the documentary made us love Fifty Cent even more. A woman whose hobby it is to throw messages in a bottle out to sea got a response from someone who is none-to-pleased with her leisure activity. Hear why Sarah agrees with the woman's new enemy. Sarah teaches Susie about "string foot," which she claims is a common problem for birds, and Susie is dubious. 00:00 - Why Most Women Wear the Wrong Shoe Size 08:36 - Unspoken Truths About Women's Aging Bodies 11:58 - Delicious & Nutritious Brodo Bone Broth 14:45 - Uncovering the Real Story of Octomom's Struggles 28:19 - Navigating Celebrity Kids and No-Phone Zones 34:31 - Unpacking the Diddy Doc and 50 Cent's Role 38:22 - The Outrage Over Messages in Plastic Bottles 44:52 - Does Fame Kill?

    Murder in Monaco, Monogamous Animals, & the Mother of Aviation

    We landed on our theme for 2026, and it feels so right. It encapsulates our attitude for the year. Sarah got a good news/bad news situation about her lady parts, and she wants the world to know about it. We learn about a man who has been walking the globe for over 25 years and he is on our main nerve. Sarah watched the Murder in Monaco documentary, and it made her wonder whether you can lie to yourself if you do it long enough. We hear why men are becoming more involved in their health and well-being, but Susie wonders if this isn't just machismo dressed up as self-care. Sarah reveals which animals are the most "monogamous," and we wonder whether humans are messing up the data. Plus, we learn about Orville and Wilbur Wright's sister Katherine, who was erased from history despite her genius work. 00:00 - Embracing 'So What, Who Cares?' for 2026 03:21 - Sarah's Journey with a Tight Pelvic Floor 09:42 - Importance of Parental Therapy 13:08 - Karl Bushby: 27 Years of Walking the World 18:57 - Delicious Wildgrain Bread and Secretly Baked Cookies 22:56 - Unraveling the Mystery of Murder in Monaco 28:21 - The New Male Fascination with Sperm Count and Health 37:19 - Ranking Monogamy in Mammals, Humans Included 47:25 - Non-Tragic Sibling Bands and Dealing with Teasing 55:58 - The Erased Genius Sister of the Wright Brothers 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: Begin your personalized roadmap to sexual happiness with Beducated by taking the quiz at https://beducate.me/pd2602-braincandy Get $30 off your first box - PLUS free Croissants for life - when you go to https://wildgrain.com/braincandy to start your subscription.

    Jellyfish Sting, Obituary Language, & Fabergé Egg Heist

    Sarah is back from Mexico, and she has tales to tell! It was a White Lotus scenario with a little jellyfish run-in on the side. Susie watched The Stringer documentary about the Napalm Girl Pulitzer Prize winning photograph, and the recent controversy about who took the picture. We learn about a 30 year study on the language used in obituaries, and what it can teach us about societal values, what matters to us, and what influences changes over time. We discuss a theft of a Fabergé egg and the unusual means the thief used to take it. 00:00 - Sarah's Wild Mexico Trip: A Hotel Guest Dies 11:37 - Sarah's Painful Encounter with a Box Jellyfish 22:13 - Take Control of Your Money: Rocket Money App 24:15 - Sarah's Permanent Scars and Susie's Podcast Picks 25:48 - The Stringer: Unraveling the Napalm Girl Photo Mystery 38:02 - What Obituaries Reveal About Societal Values and Change 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://airdoctorpro.com and use promo code CANDY to get UP TO $300 off today!
