746: Book Blurbs, Plastic Plants, & Rigged Ratings
Susie tried to send Sarah a gift and it went terribly wrong. We find out why Susie and Sarah have very different relationships with their trainers and Sarah almost had a comically bad run-in with a cactus. We learn why online ratings are no longer helpful due to "data panhandling." Sarah shares why book blurbs are useless and definitely "inspiring and illuminating." Sarah wants to ban all reviews of any kind. She wants a free for all situation instead. We couldn't help but talk about the recent incident on an airplane where they had to turn the whole thing around because somebody had explosive you know what. But not to be outdone, Sarah tells a story about someone at her doctor's office that left a big mess on the floor, and it wasn't who you might think. You know how we've been trying to "save the bees" for years, well turns out, we've been saving the wrong ones all this time.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 5 free AG1 Travel Packs and a FREE 1 year supply of Vitamin D with your first purchase at https://drinkag1.com/braincandyControl Body Odor ANYWHERE with @lumedeodorant and get $5 off off your Starter Pack (that’s over 40% off) with promo code: BRAINCANDY5 at https://lumedeodorant.com/offer/braincandy5! #lumepodGo to https://go.mycopilot.com/braincandy to get a 14-day FREE trial with your own personal trainer!Find your forever pieces @jennikayne and get 15% off with promo code BRAINCANDY at https://www.jennikayne.com/braincandy! #jennikaynepartnerSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
