    FIRST & FERAL x DR. TODD: What Your Face Reveals About You

    Can your face reveal your personality, health tendencies, and even parts of your past? In this episode of First & Feral, we sit down with Dr. Todd Frisch, founder of Why The Face (WTF) and a retired physician who has spent years studying facial analysis. Before recording, Dr. Todd completed facial analyses on both Jordyn and Jessica—and we intentionally didn't look at the results. For the first time, we're reviewing them live on air and reacting in real time. What starts as a fun conversation quickly turns into a fascinating deep dive into personality traits, leadership styles, family dynamics, emotional patterns, health indicators, and the stories our faces may be telling without us even realizing it. We talk about:• Why Dr. Todd immediately knew we were sisters• The 9 face shapes and what they reveal• Leadership, communication, and personality traits• Family relationships and childhood influences• Health markers that may show up in facial features• Trauma, stress, and emotional patterns• The connection between facial analysis and self-awareness• Whether our results were surprisingly accurate This episode had us laughing, questioning everything, and more than once looking at each other thinking, "How could he possibly know that?"
