  • S7 Ep20: Atlantis: Ancient Aliens Strike Back (with a Special Appearance by Megan Fox)
    Just when you thought you had seen the last Mary-Kate and Ashley, we’re here to remind you of one of their most important films. They shot a two hour commercial for the resort Atlantis… and we couldn’t help but not know much else about Atlantis other then the fact that a resort was named for it and the Olsens shot a movie there. So, what the hell is this lost civilization all about? Who came up with and where did they get the idea? And why are we as people obsessed with lost civilizations to begin with? So hold your nose, and we’re hitting the waterslide to the tunes of Weezer.

  • S7 Ep19: WHAT THE FUPDATE: End of Year Feels
    On this week’s FUPDATE, we’re looking back and looking forward. The holidays and the turning of the calendar year give a lot of us pause around this time. We discuss our own feelings about reflecting (or not) about a year’s passing as New Years Eve is upon us. We also dig into looking forward and our feelings about the good old New Years Resolution. So settle in as we draw things to a close.

  • S7 Ep18: True Crime: The Good, The Bad, and The Bundy Memories
    This week on the pod, as you recover from Turkey and the what we hope has been a jubilant start to Hanukkah, we are digging into True Crime. A genre loved by many, hated by some, and guilty indulged in privately by others. When is consuming the worst moments of people’s lives okay? Is it ever? We’ll employ psychologists, fellow podcasters, and even Dateline’s very own as we try to get to the bottom of this complicated question. Serial started something in the podcast sphere, but people have been tuning into True Crime tales for literal centuries, so set that home security system as get down to it.

  • S7 Ep16: Gold Rush: California Dreamin’
    This week on the pod, we attempt (and do a bit!) host another episode about the *secret gay agenda.* Did you know there were some Buffalo Gals running wild during the 1840s? We’ll get into some of the queer culture surrounding the Gold Rush that you definitely didn’t learn in public school. But what started as a deep dive into queer culture turned into so, so much more.

  • S7 Ep14: Placebo: ‘Fake’ Treatments, Real Results
    This week on the podcast, we’re talking about IBS! Yes, actually… for part of the time… we’re also getting into the details on placebo trails, and this time it’s not a blind study. Folks are taking placebo pills knowingly and willingly… and are somehow seeing results? We’ll get into what patient care has to do with this and how the studies on placebo pills have Jaimi thinking that maybe she believes in crystals after all.
