This week, Sarah and Maggie chat with special guests Megan McCaleb and Janette Cerami from I HARDLY KNOW HER! Podcast.

About Megan and Janette - They met doing improv and, though they live in different cities (and states!) they still have that long distance bestie connection only improv can bring together. In fact, they use improv to build team culture, and promote the “yes, and” philosophy on their podcast.

But first! Sarah sets an ambitious goal of walking 400 laps around her neighborhood park before she turns 40, and Maggie celebrates that because she is excited to turn 40 herself.

The human brain repeats 90% of it’s thoughts every day, and 80% of those thoughts are negative… which makes us think “dang… what are we thinking about all the time?”

This week Sarah shares some truly gross facts to see how Maggie will react.

But first! They celebrate engagements and share all the ways proposals can, and have, gone wrong.

Plus a game of Jack Off that pits Robin Williams’ character JACK against The Incredibles Jack Jack to see who would be a better son in real life.

Want the facts? 

Fact: Rat Kings are real. When a group of rats living in close quarters get their tails tangled together (this can happen for many reasons), they’re called a “rat king.”

Fact: The Vent Haven Museum houses vintage ventriloquist dummies. In fact, this museum in Kentucky,  houses over 900 ventriloquist dolls and other related pieces such as photographs and replicas.

Time stamps:

1:44 Hey Bestie: Proposals gone wrong

7:19 Fact 1: The Rat King reigns supreme

9:48 Game Jack Off: Robin Williams’ JACK vs Jack Jack from THE INCREDIBLES

14:49 The Vent Haven Museum and a spooky collection of ventriloquist dummies

Sarah impresses everyone with her cat impression.

Plus the definitive best way for children to eat watermelon, Maggie guesses the word Sarah is thinking (eventually) and these facts:

Fact: people often think of cats spending their days napping, but they also spend 15-20% of their time grooming themselves.

React: Cats spent up to 20% of their day grooming themselves - Are you a dog or a cat person?

Fact: Because kids experience less REM (rapid eye movement) during sleep than grown-ups, they are more likely to sleepwalk! In fact, almost all children will sleep walk at some point, most commonly between the ages of 3-7.

React: Kids are more likely to sleepwalk than grown ups... if you could control what your kids did when they sleepwalk, what would you want them to do?

What do you think? Would you be a cat or a dog? Do you like watermelon rinds? Do you think Sarah would be cast in CATS?
