Summary
Today we talk about our mutual anxiety about taking polygraph tests even though we aren't lying (or are we???). We talk about professional cheerleaders, and why the cheerleaders are claiming their contracts are sexist and discriminatory. We debate the new "promposal" trend in high schools. Plus, we talk about a book Susie read about mental health and the prison system and Sarah shares about why we're all embarrassed by our bodies.
