850: Doritos Dust, Brain Freeze, & Tablescaping

We got an update on the serial pooper, and we were way off OR WERE WE??? We learn how an ingredient in Doritos can change the skin of mice and we debate the order of Doritos flavors over time. Sarah reveals some fun facts about the brain, the reasons some people are shy (and Susie ought to be more compassionate about shyness!), and what causes brain freeze/frozen throat. Sarah watched a documentary about tablescaping competitions and explains the types of people who might get into such an odd hobby (sport??). We find out that all the hype about the magical longevity of the Blue Zones is more likely due to corruption, poor record-keeping, and deception. We learn why you should be eating at more restaurants with 2-star reviews. And Susie shares why she had to go "Karen" on a Chipotle cashier.
