772: Teen Slang, Women on Everest, & Chipotle Justice

from The Brain Candy Podcast

We know Susie thinks wisdom teeth removal is a scam, but are nightguards too? Not according to Sarah--they just need a trim. We discuss the news that using cannabis for pain management is no better than a placebo. We talk about a new method for scientific testing that is saving a lot of rabbit lives, but is still angering animal rights activists. We consider whether animals know their "names" when they are our pets or whether the abstract idea of a personal name is a human-only concept. Sarah may have done the impossible and found a group of people climbing Mt. Everest that we're ok with! A group of women is making the trek and, believe it or not, we're on board. Apparently Interstellar did more than tell the greatest cinematic story ever told, it actually is turning a profit through corn production too, but Susie can't confirm this information. And we hear about a woman who threw her food at a fast food worker, and why the judge sentencing her took a clever route in her punishment.Listen to more podcasts like this: https://wavepodcastnetwork.comRead this week's Newsletter: https://mailchi.mp/thebraincandypodcast/interstellars-corn-slang-in-2023-breaking-stereotypesJoin 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:Go to https://www.reliefband.com and use promo code CANDY you’ll receive 20% off plus free shipping!Get 20% OFF @honeylove by going to https://honeylove.com/braincandy! #honeylovepodRitual is offering my listeners 30% off during your first month at https://ritual.com/braincandyHead to https://cadenlane.com/braincandy and use code BRAINCANDY for 20% off your order!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
