Show notes
Sarah's a horse whisperer, so when she goes riding she gets the naughty boys. We learn why a Utah lake is drying up. Sarah believes school notebook colors correspond with certain subjects, and even though it makes no sense, she's right. A new show, Not a Sound, about a hearing-impaired woman, cast an actress who is hearing, and some people aren't happy about it. Hear our thoughts. Sarah explains why walking amongst trees physically changes your body. We talk about invasive species and how we hate their guts. Susie states the obvious, and explains why she can't hack it in the out of doors. But she sure knows a lot about owls, and if you listen, you will too.
