About this episode

The episode discusses personal experiences, documentaries on cults and hijacking, and the generational shift in the WNBA.

Sarah is back from living that pura vida in Costa Rica. She had an incredible horse girl experience and now she's back to regular life. Susie is encouraging everyone to come up with a list of non-negotiables like she has with her "five W's." We're still working on Sarah's list, but it probably includes pot. We discuss the #SkyKing documentary about the man who stole a plane for seemingly no good reason, and the ways Susie related to his wild life story. We discuss the Trust Me documentary, which tells the story of a fundamentalist Mormon cult where men were "marrying" young girls, and the amazing way the film itself allowed them to be rescued. And our resident sports story lover (who really doesn't like sports), Susie, breaks down the feud between Geno Aurimma and Dawn Staley in the WNBA finals and the ways that it reflects the changing of the guard between the generations. 00:00 - Sarah's Pura Vida Trip and Challenges 02:38 - Susie's 5 W's and Sarah's P's List 08:08 - Susie's Upcoming Google Modeling Job Experience 10:24 - Our Favorite Caraway Products and Lost Knife 13:58 - Analyzing the SkyKing Hijack and Motivations 26:23 - Flexible Meal Planning with Hungryroot Deliveries…
