- Syd would rather confess to all her teachers about plagiarizing than face a shark, and doubles down that she never got caught—"life, we learn, we grow, and we plagiarize." ([67:28])
- Would you rather have toes for fingers or fingers for toes? Crew dissect the functional pros and cons, with help from eczema jokes.
12. Women’s Sports Advocacy
