662: Boomers, Groomers, & Rumors

Published: Nov. 3, 2022, 4 a.m.

b'Susie is mad at one of her favorite authors, so she rants about his boomer views. We discuss a documentary about competitive dog groomers, and Susie explains why she thinks they\'re similar to professional athletes. We hear some "old gossip" about Jayne Mansfield, and learn why her death saved lives. We debate a New York Times Op-Ed that said therapy isn\'t for everyone, and going doesn\'t mean you\'re necessarily a good person. Susie wants to know if any of Sarah\'s therapy clients have ever been combative (and it\'s probably because Susie sounds like she wants to punch her therapist, which doesn\'t seem like a healthy attitude. lol). We discuss the fishermen who loaded their fish with weights to cheat in a contest, and we discuss people who *ahem* cheat and then want to "take the money and run." Plus, Susie discusses the rise in online "cults" and why the culture right now makes conspiracy theories more appealing. Listen out for this week\'s Old Gossip\\u2122 segment and let us know your favorite celebrity stories from the archives.\\xa0 Join our book club, shop our merch, sign-up for our free newsletter, & more by visiting The Brain Candy Podcast website: Connect with us on social media: BCP Instagram: Susie\'s Instagram: Sarah\'s Instagram: BCP Twitter: Susie\'s Twitter: Sarah\'s Twitter: Get your first month of ANY crate line FREE at Go to now to get 15% off an annual membership!
