Summary
Today we discuss Biosphere 2, which was way more involved & fascinating than we realized. Hear why the experiment didn't get respect from their academic community & bananas don't make great wine. We discuss the psychology of the Roast Me subreddit, & the reasons people w/ terminal illnesses & disabilities do the best w/ the insults. We learn about a man who had a stroke that made him rhyme constantly, so he became a 63-year-old rapper. Plus, we find out about anti-fap & porn addiction groups.
