Summary
Sarah and Susie are fresh off their New York adventure, and they spent one night in their hotel room getting spooked by the Manhattan Alien Abduction documentary. Hear why we are kind of convinced that a woman was abducted, and feel bad that people question it. Susie met a man who gave himself a vasectomy (don't worry, he's a urology surgeon), and got the scoop on whether it really is as bad as men claim it is. We learn about a Strongman champion who recently died, and how he was a successful bird breeder who said the color and beauty of the fowls brought out his "gentle side." We also discuss the founder of the JanSport company and inventor of the backpack, mummy sleeping bag, and modern hiking bag, and how his innovative designs are so ubiquitous we can't imagine a world without them! We talk about new advances in the science of itching and the reasons why pain gets all the attention, while itching is understudied. Plus, we have a theory (well, Lincoln does) about why one basketball player refused to admit his actual height.
