Sarah just started a therapy business, but she thinks she missed her calling as a redecorator for therapy offices. Someone who could use Sarah's therapy skills is the guy Susie saw at Oktoberfest who had a full-on 15-minute slur-filled rant, and the sheriff had to cart him away. Susie watched a documentary about ultramarathoners, and describes the teams of people who support these extreme athletes, why she thinks the women are different from the men, and why it's similar to drug addiction. Sarah describes the "wheel of well-being" that can help people find balance in their lives. Susie talks about the American Gladiator, Siren, who was hearing-impaired, and her difference caused a lot of pain throughout her life. We find out who is having the most hot and heavy boom-boom, and the answer shocked us. Plus, Susie is raging about a bar that closed down in Boston because they were dummies.
