931: Making Memories, Fake Jobs, & TikTok Brain

LIVE trivia is this Wednesday July 30th at 8PM! - Today, Sarah tells a story about a man who watched a few YouTube videos and pretended to be a dentist, performing actual dental work on people. This leads us to think of the professions one could fake the easiest and get away with it. And Susie thinks of the best possible answer. We learn some tips on retaining memories and why we need to be intentional about it these days. We discuss the sleep deficit a lot of people have, the reasons for it, and why we might've been misled by some "experts." Plus, we hear why TikTok is affecting our attention spans and our brains and thinking more generally. It ain't good, people.Read this week's Newsletter: https://mailchi.mp/thebraincandypodcast/fast-content-house-of-secrets-smelling-antsJOIN SUSIE AND SARAH FOR LIVE INTERACTIVE TRIVIA! -https://thebraincandypodcast.com/trivia/ - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT, MTV, REAL WORLD INTERVIEWS, THE CHALLENGE INTERVIEWS, SURVIVOR, AND MORE POPULAR CAST MEMBERS AND SHOWS)Brain Candy Podcast sponsors, partnerships, codes and discounts:Our favorite Brain Candy cat food partner!
