Summary

Have you ever wondered if your Airbnb host REALLY left for the weekend? Are there any hidden rooms in that cabin you didn’t know about? Bethany fell down a rabbit hole of creepy Airbnb stories and she’s passing the savings on to you! Then, Kathleen is questioning all of the health “rules” we’ve been told our whole lives: you need 8 glasses of water, 10,000 steps, 7 servings of fruit and vegetables, etc etc. Are they true? Who came up with them? WHAT DO THEY WANT FROM US?
