The Brain Candy Podcast

Today we realize we used to fat-shame ourselves in our early episodes, and we're relieved we have evolved a bit since then. Sarah describes a roller coaster in Japan that is leaving people w/ spinal fractures, and she reveals why she is surprisingly afraid of coasters. We discuss some of the more humiliating challenges we've participated in, and the phrase, "see-saw my hoo-haw," is uttered. We also speculate about the way men might experience roller coasters in a very...different way than women. We also discuss a theory about tastebuds on your b-hole and how Sarah believes she solved the mystery. We hear about a man who is creating a family with a bird.
