Episode notes
Alcohol Spurs Riskier Choices
- Alcohol increases risky behaviors leading to unwanted pregnancies, while cannabis may have a more cautious effect.
- This insight challenges common assumptions about substance effects on decision-making.

- Divorce rates decreased possibly due to economic pressures, with many couples staying together for financial stability.
