745: Tennis Tomfoolery, Lifelong Learning, & Auto-Tuning Jesus
We're still talking about that dude who told Sarah to smile, and Susie came up with a new way to handle these men. We celebrate Lincoln's recent accomplishment and entrance into the family business (of winning!). We discuss the Oppenheimer movie and documentary, and discuss how people can be both a victim and victimizer and how humans justify their aggressive or bad behavior. Sarah explains why nukes are stored in Colorado and her recent experience at an "off-road class" that she thinks every driver should have to take. We hear why churches are using auto-tune during their worship services, and we think this flies in the face of the message of Jesus. Susie explains why Christians think they have to be perfect and why it's probably not the best message. We hear what you should include in your emergency kit and there are items you would never expect. We hear why self-checkout lanes might be making the loneliness epidemic worse, but Susie thinks cashiers are not the solution to people's isolation. And we debate whether the new tipping approach everywhere is helping or hurting workers.Listen to more podcasts like this: https://wavepodcastnetwork.comRead this week's Newsletter: https://mailchi.mp/thebraincandypodcast/lonely-shoppers-broken-reviews-bee-mythsJoin 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/ImSarahRiceSponsors:Get $30 off the first box - PLUS free Croissants in every box - when you go to https://wildgrain.com/braincandy to start your subscription!Grab your Liquid I.V. in bulk nationwide at Costco or you can get 20% off when you go to https://www.liquid-iv.com and use code: CANDY at checkout!Get started at https://www.chime.com/braincandyVisit https://www.carawayhome.com/braincandy to take advantage of this limited-time offer for 10% off your next purchase!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
