Susie and Sarah have a disagreement about whether dinner should just be dinner or if it's better with a murder mystery, a concert, or blindfolds. We discuss the Birthday Song and point out what a terrible tune it is, and we agree that the United States probably has the worst birthday song in the world. Susie watched the Sins of Our Mother documentary, and they discuss the way religious zealotry can lead to delusions, but also how mental illness can contribute to religious ideations. We talk about the debate about whether Law & Order is police propaganda or just harmless entertainment. Finally, we learn why some people think the internet is ruining nude beaches, and we debate whether it's because of unrealistic beauty standards, surreptitious filming, or the accessibility of porn.
