Grossed Out

Would you rather never wear deodorant or have really bad dandruff?Would you rather wear winter clothes all year long or summer clothes all year long?Would you rather cover yourself in peanut butter or ketchup?Would you rather only use dog shampoo or never cut your toenails?Would you rather eat moldy bread or eat moldy cheese?Would you rather have your dog kiss you or your grandma kiss you?Would you rather have terrible gas all the time or burp out loud constantly?Would you rather eat a rotten banana or a rotten egg?Would you rather always have the hiccups or always have big sweat stains under your arms?Would you rather sniff expired milk or sniff rotten eggs?

In this episode we put Trump again Biden in a statistical matchup of the ages. From the tail of the tape analysis all the way through 5 rounds of head to head competition we look at the two candidates in detail. Using survey data from two well respected surveys we'll compare each candidates stand on Key Issues versus how survey respondents polled.

Round 2 will look at reasons respondents gave for voting for either candidate. We'll look at personality traits of each candidate in Round 3. Round 4 is a measure of voter confidence in key issues as it relates to each candidate. And the fifth and final round looks at which candidate is more trustworthy.

All throughout the match up we'll provide color commentary and analysis of the candidates and the issues measured. In the end we'll tally up each candidates results in a 10 point must system and give you our thoughts.

We decided to change things up a bit for our Halloween episode and have some fun. We decorated the studio set, threw on our costumes and decided to play a game of "Would You Rather".

In this episode we ask Madison a serious of questions on topics such as Technology, Pop Culture, Family, School, Food and Fantasy. We give Madison two choices and she needs to pick which one she would rather go with. It's a fun and interesting little game of personality questions that we play at home from time to time. This time we're asking the questions on the podcast and getting the answers on the fly.

This week is another in depth Question and Answers session on topics like philosophy, politics and more. We ask a number of heavy hitting philosophical questions this week such as how would Madison explain love, is there such thing as free will and can we understand happiness without sadness.Following up to our "Running for President" podcast from last week we ask Madison a number of politically motivated questions such as why does politics matter to you, does she think too much money is spent on political campaigns and what does she think are the qualities of a good political leader.We wrap up with a shortened set of miscellaneous questions such as what do you wish you were more motivated to do, what's something kids understand but adults don't and if you could give every person a gift in the world what would it be?It's an insightful look at how teens think about today's issue and we get some very enlightening answers.
