Summary
Susie wants to know why we still have "viewings" when people die, and how she finds the ritual of open caskets to be macabre and strange. Plus, how is there technology that provides AI, but no one has updated the embalming process enough to make dead people look like...alive people. Sarah explains why birdhouses might be a bad idea, and birds are experiencing the same laziness that comes from comfort that people have. A bear went to Disney World, and we are very impressed with his tour of the park. We discuss brunch culture, and the standard of providing a "bottomless" booze option, and now restaurants are trying to solve the problem of inebriated guests. Susie is blaming "wine moms" and says the idea that these are gals who are letting loose because they never get time to themselves is false. We learn about driverless taxis, and debate whether we'd want one. Susie would prefer if we automated the dental industry, hair professionals, and any place where people make small talk.
