13 - WOMEN AND CHILDREN FIRST, AND TREAT DEPRESSION WITH EGG


Listen Later

Is 13 lucky or unlucky? We honestly don’t know. In this episode Sarah deep dives all the way to the ocean floor to talk about the Titanic and the origins of ‘women and children first.’ Chris talks about her time on a cruise ship and turns out Sarah is mortally afraid of the underside of ships.  Chris shares a story from the 20’s about the best way to treat depression in women, and it’s as productive and weird as you imagine.
