1041: Wedding Wardrobe, Local Sleep, & Bear Attacks

Sarah wants people to stop with the obscure and niche wedding dress codes that make no sense. We learn about a study that showed how the brain scans of people can predict who they'll be friends with regardless of common interests and personality types. We hear about "local sleep," which allows you to "sleep" in tiny increments throughout the day when you are otherwise fully awake. Sarah explains how primates arrange playdates for their babies just like humans. And we relive the worst sushi experience of our lives.00:00 - Reliving Childhood Fashion Trends and Style Choices06:53 - The Absurdity of Niche Wedding Dress Code Demands17:20 - How Brain Scans Predict Future Friendships and Connections26:02 - A Delicious Dive into Olives and Dirty Martinis27:39 - Understanding Local Sleep and Brain's Need for Rest40:36 - Primates Arrange Playdates Just Like Human Parents45:00 - Why Bear Attacks Are on the Rise in Colorado51:20 - The Best Leftovers and Our Worst Sushi Experience01:04:48 - Episode Wrap-Up and How to Connect with Brain CandyBrain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:For 50% off your order, head to https://www.dailylook.com and use code BRAINCANDY Get 40% off your first order PLUS get a free item in every box for life when you go to https://www.hungryroot.com/braincandy and use code braincandyLet Rocket Money help you reach your financial goals faster.
