497: Teacher's Pet, Scream Mystery, & Pole-Dancing Doctor

Mar 4, 2021
53:53

Today we hear why Sarah has always been teacher's pet, and Susie has, of course, not ever been a teacher's pet. We find out why there is a mystery inscription on Edvard Munch's Scream, and we learn who put it there. Plus, Susie convinces Sarah to like the "Mona Lisa of modern art." We discuss the story of the Lady and the Dale, and how a trans woman changed the face of the automobile industry in the 70s. We learn about a PhD who pole dances who studies the ways social media algorithms discriminate against women. Find out what it takes to be a monster truck driver, why Sarah likes to watch golf, and Susie hates stripper shoes.
