Hello everyone and welcome to the Psych Legal Pop podcast. This is a podcast where we talk about

popular culture through the lens of an attorney and a therapist. I'm Brooke Brigham. I'm the

attorney. And I'm Tess Brigham. I'm the therapist. And today we are going to be talking about

a new documentary that literally just came out.

Yes.

It's called Stop the Insanity Finding Susan Powder.

Mm-hmm.

Now, anyone of a certain age remembers Susan Powder, Stop the Insanity.

She was a fitness, health, nutrition. I don't want to say diet because she was anti-diet. She was against the diet industry. And her motto, Stop the Insanity, was like, aimed at saying, you don't need to be doing all these crazy diets and different things.

What you need to do is you need to eat real food, whole foods, not processed foods.

And you need to move your body and you need to breathe.

And if you do all those things, you will be healthier.

So she was in the 90s, very, very, very popular.

She had, she was introduced to America through an infomercial.

Yeah, the number one infomercial in the world,

apparently. It was huge. And she was selling, I don't know, she was selling some kind of a kit

that had recipes in it and, I don't know, you know, it was like just a little kit, but people

went crazy for it. And she's just highly, highly energetic and positive.

And, you know, she's got all this energy.

And she's just all over the place.

And she had this buzz cut that in her hair was dyed like platinum blonde.

And she had this very unique look, very unique energy.
