836: Rattlesnakes, Miracle on Ice, & Pizza Box Mystery

Apparently there is a den of thousands of rattlesnakes in Colorado, so Sarah is freaking out, and we think rattlesnakes are publishing propaganda to help their reputation. Steve Jobs was a weirdo with a very strange method for relieving stress. Susie talks about an aggressive football program that was accused of being "thugs," and we debate whether it's bad sportsmanlike conduct or a great strategy to win. And we hear why Notre Dame made it seem like playing against them was good vs evil. Susie describes the Miracle on Ice from the Russian point of view, and why they were not impressed with the U.S.A.'s victory in the 1980 Olympics. We find out about an infamous pizza box, and try to find out who made it and why its origins are so mysterious. We discuss a woman who survived a skydiving accident, how she managed to avoid death, and why she doesn't want it to define her.
