Susie is very obsessed with the Kelly Clarkson/animatronic bird ordeal involving a Brooklyn toy store. Whose side are you on? We discuss the doomsday problem that all the rich will face where their veneers are going to need maintenance, but we’re in an apocalypse so… We learn about a new study that showed that the rich are more likely to be shitty on the road, lie at work, and literally steal candy from a baby. We discuss the recent airline incident where a pilot tried to hijack the plane, but a man saved the day through skills he learned watching a show about airplane crashes. We discuss the problem of an “intelligence gap” in a relationship, and why it’s more complicated than just brains or IQ. Learn the three traits that actually matter!
