Summary

We have a new Brain Candy seal of approval, inspired by Sarah, created by Adam, and loved by all. Pay attention to our approvals with our new device. We wonder why the Twinkie never left despite threats that they were discontinuing their production of the food (???). We learn the origin of Pac-Man, why the game was revolutionary, and what makes us love it still. We talk about the strange success of the sporting goods story, Dicks, and how Sarah thought Dick divorced someone and she had a spinoff store called Chicks. We debate AI for therapy, wellness, and friendship, and share what we think people should do instead (and it involves, you know, talking to actual people). We learn about the new Shiny Happy People season, but it turns out, Susie's up to speed, since she was a participant in evangelical churches in the 90s.

0:00.0	Hello.
0:03.0	Hello, Brighamia.
0:06.0	This is 936.
0:09.0	936.
0:10.0	936. I like that.
0:13.0	All divisible by three.
0:15.0	Just before we started when we were doing the countdown, Sarah, you were saying, like, you had to run up your steps
0:20.9	and you're out of breath. And I'm, like, thinking about how that elevation. Like, it's a running
0:24.8	joke in Denver and all that. Mile high. But it's legit. And, like, my face is so dry. I don't
0:31.4	know how you moisturize enough. You really don't. You're just constantly bad. And you will age faster here. That is terrible news.
0:40.3	There's something about the higher elevation that means you're going to age at a faster rate in Colorado than you would anywhere else. And how about this? I just recently was listening to an interview with this rock climber.
0:55.8	And she was talking about how the, she was like,
