Ep #17: Zodiac signs and horoscopes are nonsense

Welcome back to The Break Room, where absolutely nothing important happens — and today is no exception. In this episode, Nick, Corey, and Zach embark on a deeply “scientific” mission: discovering Conversion Factory’s collective zodiac sign using a BuzzFeed quiz, the most trusted source of universal truth.Along the way, the guys ruthlessly deconstruct the logic (or lack thereof) behind zodiac signs, horoscopes, and the painfully confident people who insist they can read your soul based on the month you were born. Spoiler: zodiac signs are dumb, astrology isn’t real, and the only thing the stars are influencing is how hard we're rolling our eyes.In this episode:-The team takes a “What Zodiac Sign Are You?” quiz as a business — because why not-Heated debates about cats, squares, Legos, Hogwarts houses, and other extremely scientific criteria-A BuzzFeed result so vague it narrowed 12 signs down to… 3-Live reading of a hilariously generic horoscope (“You may feel inspired to write today.” Wow, thanks.)-Zach recounts the iconic moment he ruined an astrology girl’s day by telling her the truth-Corey reveals his favorite tactic: agree with people about their zodiac guesses, then immediately tell them they’re wrong-Reflecting on why strangers feel entitled to assign you a personality based on what month your mom went into labor-If you've ever been asked “What’s your sign?” and immediately knew the conversation was doomed, this episode is for you....The Breakroom is a show hosted by the three cofounders of Conversion Factory, the marketing agency at the forefront of SaaS growth.
