211: Cheerleaders, Promposals, & Polygraphs

from The Brain Candy Podcast

Today we talk about our mutual anxiety about taking polygraph tests even though we aren't lying (or are we???). We talk about professional cheerleaders, and why the cheerleaders are claiming their contracts are sexist and discriminatory. We debate the new "promposal" trend in high schools. Plus, we talk about a book Susie read about mental health and the prison system and Sarah shares about why we're all embarrassed by our bodies.Listen to more podcasts like this: https://wavepodcastnetwork.comRead this week's Newsletter: https://mailchi.mp/thebraincandypodcast/210-212Join our Candy Club, shop our merch, sign-up for our free newsletter, & more by visiting The Brain Candy Podcast website: https://www.thebraincandypodcast.comConnect with us on social media:BCP Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastSusie's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterSarah's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBCP on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodSusie on X: https://www.x.com/susie_meisterSarah on X: https://www.x.com/ImSarahRiceSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
