707: The Man Show, Boston Bombing, & Waco Cult

from The Brain Candy Podcast

We get a follow-up on Sarah's habit of eating muffin cups and it somehow got even more insane than it already was, but the good news is that there are apparently many people who indulged in baking cup cuisine, so Sarah isn't alone. Susie makes an observation about the show's men watch, and points out how women are willing to watch male hosts, but men are reluctant to watch women. We discuss the Boston bombing documentary and the way photographic evidence and video footage actually made the case more difficult in the beginning of the investigation. We learn why the story was even more shocking than we remember and how moving the documentary was. We hear how the Waco Branch Davidian cult and siege is related to the Boston and Oklahoma City bombings, and why the human brain can get fooled into religious extremism. We hear about a French man who pretended to be an American boy and even fooled the boy's family. And Sarah is hilariously furious about a woman who lived underground for 500 days. Listen to more podcasts like this: https://wavepodcastnetwork.comRead this week's Newsletter: https://mailchi.mp/thebraincandypodcast/2t972z7tmqJoin 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 Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/braincandypodSusie's Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/susie_meisterSarah's Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/ImSarahRiceSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
