Sarah is getting emotional about her water polo resurgence, and wants you all to do something to challenge yourself. We discuss how she didn’t take advantage of her rich ex-husband, and how next time she should have a little more fun. We talk about the surgeon general, who has been giving advice about self-care, wellness, and other more abstract mental health techniques, and receiving criticism by people who think he should focus on non-mental health. And we debate whether that’s the role of a governmental official and what he should do instead. We find out about a philosophical debate about whether blind people who develop sight can recognize objects they’ve only ever felt once they can see. And now, thanks to modern scientists, we have the surprising answer!
