    Doll Hotel, Perimenopausal Wife Guy & Swatting Nightmare

    Susie got to hang out with some other Rices, and it was glorious. Sarah started horse school, and she is loving it, but she doesn't think she can ever ride a horse again (!). Susie watched a documentary about a hotel that gives their guests dolls to do, um, very not safe for work things to, and we are debating whether this is harm reduction for men who would otherwise treat women poorly or just enabling men to live in isolation. We debate the virtues of a comedian who went viral for doing impressions of his perimenopausal wife. Plus, we hear about a man who wrote online about his distaste for Norm Macdonald and a bunch of weird men online tortured him and his wife for three years by sending SWAT teams to his house 55 times! 00:00 - Sarah's Early Morning Airport Run and Susie's Cold 04:44 - Susie's Dinner with Sarah's Family and Horse School Beginnings 17:40 - Why Sarah Might Never Ride a Horse Again 24:51 - Debating the Harm Reduction of the Sex Doll Hotel 41:36 - A Comedian's Nightmare: 55 Swatting Incidents 48:44 - Viral Comedian's Wife Impressions and a Doobie Brothers Reunion 01:02:12 - Final Thoughts and How to Support the Podcast 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: Get 40% off your first order PLUS get a free item in every box for life when you go to https://www.hungryroot.com/braincandy and use code braincandy Go to https://cozyearth.com and use code BRAINCANDY for up to 20% off home and sleepwear.  TDM-RESERVATION: 1.

    Lady Parts, Free Money, & Serious Silliness

    Scientists have discovered a new part of the female anatomy and they have no idea what it even does. So that's just great. A disabled woman was paid her full salary, but told not to come to work, and she sued for being excluded from working (WHILE STILL GETTING PAID), and Susie has never been more furious. We don't know how we feel about Taylor Swift's Madison Square Garden wedding, and now the Swifties are going to come after Susie.

    Ultramarathons, Siren, & the Wheel of Well-being

    Sarah just started a therapy business, but she thinks she missed her calling as a redecorator for therapy offices. Someone who could use Sarah's therapy skills is the guy Susie saw at Oktoberfest who had a full-on 15-minute slur-filled rant, and the sheriff had to cart him away. Susie watched a documentary about ultramarathoners, and describes the teams of people who support these extreme athletes, why she thinks the women are different from the men, and why it's similar to drug addiction. Sarah describes the "wheel of well-being" that can help people find balance in their lives. Susie talks about the American Gladiator, Siren, who was hearing-impaired, and her difference caused a lot of pain throughout her life. We find out who is having the most hot and heavy boom-boom, and the answer shocked us. Plus, Susie is raging about a bar that closed down in Boston because they were dummies. 00:00 - Sarah's Struggle with Uninspiring Therapy Office Decor 07:07 - Susie Witnesses a Slur-Filled Rant at Oktoberfest 14:08 - Are Ultramarathons a Form of Selfish Drug Addiction? 27:40 - Finding Balance with Sarah's Wheel of Well-being 37:25 - The Troubled Life of American Gladiator Siren 42:13 - Why Caraway Cookware Never Lets You Down 44:33 - Why Religious Couples Have More Satisfying Sex 57:59 - The Boston Lesbian Bar That Closed Due to Extreme Policies 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 This episode is sponsored by Betterhelp.

    Halloween Ideas, Fart Spray, & Last Meals

    We're brainstorming Halloween costume ideas because, once again, we will be enjoying Spooky Season together. We've got so many good options. We discuss problems at a big festival causing people to evacuate, and we are starting to think there are too many festivals, and they're getting crazy with litter, consumerism, crowd control, etc... One thing is certain, pyrotechnics are almost always a mistake. And Sarah wants to ban fireworks (don't tell Adam Butler). We find out about a student who brought fart spray (whatever that is???) to school as a prank, but it ended up being so toxic that several kids had to go to the hospital. Susie hates pranks even more now. We discuss a man who claimed he unearthed the world's oldest amphitheater, but suspicions were raised when people noticed that the venue was made entirely of modern materials. We discuss the "last meal" that death row inmates get, and share what we would choose if we were them. 00:00 - Enjoying Fall Weather and Upcoming Concert Plans 03:32 - Brainstorming Batman and Villain Halloween Costume Ideas 06:47 - Are Music Festivals Getting Too Big and Out of Control? 28:14 - The Man Who Built and Charged for a Fake Ancient Amphitheater 39:24 - Examining the Last Meal Choices of Infamous Serial Killers 50:14 - From High School Reports to Modern Serial Killer Obsolescence 59:57 - How to Support The Brain Candy Podcast and Connect 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: Get 15% off OneSkin with the code BRAINCANDY at https://www.oneskin.co/BRAINCANDY #oneskinpod Head to https://cozyearth.com and use my code BRAINCANDY for an exclusive 30% off home and sleepwear.

    Beach Brawl, Dumb Phones, & Longevity Fail

    Sarah has a new enemy, and its electronic behemoth, Best Buy. Apparently they want to charge you to recycle your goods, and she ain't having it. Susie's having better luck with her appliances, and shares a hack for getting a free toaster (or something?). We hear about a brawl that broke out over a beach chair that left a man dead. Susie explains why Pittsburghers encourage "saving" your parking spot, but Sarah's not so sure she likes this idea. We learn about tech-bro-turned-longevity-bro, Bryan Johnson's surprising new diagnosis that might undermine his life's mission to live forever. Susie's cats have tapeworms. She is none-too-pleased. And a woman was given permission to keep a pet alligator, and we have to admit, it's adorable even though it's super weird and probably bad for the reptile. 00:00 - The Curious Case of Sarah J.
