All aboard the Fail Train – this week, with special guest Greta Johnsen of WBEZ’s  Nerdette! Our fails this week:    The cast of Barbie have perfect skin because of tea and fermented foods and lasers, and not because of makeup or being rich or anything like that   Famous Americans have reasons to be in the U.K., meaning they obviously like it more than their home country    Prince William goes to work all on his own like a big handsome boy!     Find us on Twitter @kristenmeinzer and @maurafcurrie, or Instagram @k10meinzer and @maura_frances, to share your feelings on these daily fails — we know you have them. And if you like the show, let us know by leaving a great rating and review wherever you listen.
