Today we discuss why male chefs are venerated, worshipped, and adored, while female chefs are hidden, required to be effortless, and see as instinctual rather than skilled. We discuss the three finalists who auditioned to be Anakin Skywalker, and then Sarah reveals a shocking story about her babysitting days. (Yet another example of Sarah's insane life!). Susie describes a community in Costa Rica where many boys don't develop penises until puberty. We debate whether a tattoo that fades after a year is a great innovation or a cop out. We learn about a wave of girls developing tics as a result of watching TikTok videos of a girl with Tourette Syndrome. Plus, a hotline in Colombia battling "machismo" among men in order to prevent domestic violence. Plus, we talk to Julie Rodgers about Pray Away and her book OutLove about her experience with gay conversion therapy.
