535: Rent a Friend, Expiration Dates, & Religious Disgust

Jul 22, 2021
01:00:06

Today we follow-up on the baby fetish debate, and respond to feedback from a listener. We learn about Williams Syndrome which makes people filled with love for everyone they meet. We discuss a company where you can "rent" a friend, and we debate whether this is a nice idea or an AWH (accident waiting to happen). We learn the truth behind expiration dates, and the reason Big Grocery wants you to throwaway your food. Susie explains why crowds disgust humans unless the other people in the crowd are thought to share our values, worldview, or insider status.
