656: Richard Simmons, Jeffrey Dahmer, and Repressed Memories

Today we hear what went wrong with Susie's lip fillers and why she is a glutton for punishment because she'll do it again. We discuss "performing beauty" and how these alleged feminists willingly modify their body. Susie talks about a Richard Simmons documentary that, while it wasn't well-made, was interesting in its explanation for Richard's "disappearance." This led us to a discussion about how documentaries are changing, and why it's making Susie more cautious about what she watches. We discuss the Bling Ring and Sarah's surprising connection to the burglars. Susie discusses Jeffrey Dahmer and how he had the perfect "recipe" of personal ingredients to become a serial killer and she explains how it's similar to John Wayne Gacy and a Columbine shooter. Plus, we discuss "repressed memories" and how therapists in the 80s and 90s were persuading people to believe they'd experienced trauma that they hadn't actually experienced.
