Summary
Today we discuss the passing of Dustin Diamond aka Screech from Saved By the Bell, and how his career had difficulties and trauma. Susie tells us amazing facts about the ways humans smell, how we're far better at it than we realized, and it's traumatic when we lose our sense of smell. We discuss a recent retraction by Food & Wine magazine, and debate whether their food styling is racist. We hear who is actually making those scam phone calls to steal money from people, and the ways they justify their crimes.
