342: Midlife Crisis, Boys Will Be Boys, & Sushi Fires

Today we find out whether Susie is excited to turn 40. She discusses the concept of "boys will be boys," & why it's toxic. Hear what Sarah thinks is in Area 51. We learn why history books are perpetuating patriarchy, kids are better at learning languages (and it's not what you think), & tempura flakes are a fire hazard. Plus, we salute a girl who did research on a common bathroom appliance, & learned how it is harming kids. And we learn how automation is making work miserable for hourly employees.
