735: Whistleblowers, Benihana Training, & Barbie Mania

Sarah went to a bridal shower and it was like a Crocodile Dundee experience where there were fancy finger sandwiches and tea and she was still trying to throw down in the shower game. Susie is still immersed in sports, and this time it's NBA legend (and alleged womanizer) Wilt Chamberlain. We discuss why his reputation in the bedroom is more well-known than his basketball talent. Susie talked about a financial whistleblower who turned over billions to the government and had to go to jail anyway (but we think his $104M payout probably softened the blow). We learn why old people actually are buttholes, and the reasons we become cranky in old age. We had a good laugh about our theories about Benihana hibachi chefs and whether we could do that job. We think it's a lot of smoke and mirrors (and shrimp tails) and not a lot of chef skills. Sarah also wants Susie to drop by Panda Express and pick up their latest menu item, and she said ok, so standby for that Sooz Reviews Food Edition. We discuss the Rat Pack and why Dean Martin was a real standup guy. Plus, we revel in Barbie mania and how awesome it is that a "female" movie is such a hit.
