This month, we start off with the AstraZeneca vaccine, specifically discussing the reported blood clot cases and symptoms to look out for if you are taking it. Next up, are humans vain, or just seeking happiness? We talk about a recent study that studied looking at your own face and the dopamine reward pathway. Finally, in lieu of the upcoming festivities, we share the pros and cons of the four-day workweek. To all our Muslim listeners, Selamat Hari Raya!

TLDR: If you want to look at yourself in the mirror, treat yo’ self.
