Wait… Why Is This Normal?

Have you ever stopped to think about the things we all do without questioning them? We sing to someone while they sit there awkwardly, blow all over a birthday cake and then serve it to everyone, shake strangers’ hands, repeatedly check the same refrigerator, decorate bathrooms with towels nobody is allowed to use, and send kids door-to-door asking strangers for candy. Totally normal… right? 😂 In this episode we go down the rabbit hole of everyday habits, traditions, and social rules we’ve somehow all agreed are completely normal, even though they’re actually kind of weird. From airplanes and parking lots to eyelashes, Halloween, the tooth fairy, bathroom etiquette, and everything in between, this episode will probably have you asking: “Wait… why DO we do that?” Come laugh with us, question everything, and discover a few weird things you probably do too.
