Summary
Sarah got her meds adjusted and she is riding the high of that sweet testosterone that is making her feel some kind of way. All of the sudden she isn't so judgy towards men. What's up with that??? We hear about the amazing investigative journalist that blew the lid of off of mistreatment for mentally ill patients and people unfairly placed into mental hospitals in the 1800s. Pittsburgh's own Nellie Bly is our badass bitch of the week with her moxie, courage, and fortitude, and we are hoping for more of that today. We learn why the US gave 11 bison to the Canadian first nations, and how it's meant to make up for past harms. We discuss the Oscars, why Sarah didn't know how to feel about Kieran Culkin's acceptance speech and why Demi Moore's movie Substance disturbed her. We hear why the eyeballs actually are windows to the soul, or at least the brain, and how they can reveal disease.
