1018: Famous Houses, Glamorous Priest, & Gifting Suite

Sarah is back from Vegas where she attended the Enhanced Games, which allow competitors to use any FDA substance they want. We celebrate that, but we mourn the loss of buffets. Bring back the buffet! Susie watched a documentary about houses featured in movies and TV shows and the people who live in them. We hear why some owners hate it and others embrace their famous residences. We learned about the man who founded the E.L.F. makeup brand, who has received a higher calling and joined the priesthood! Susie watched the Hollywood Demons episode about Saved By the Bell, and we discuss the perils of childhood stardom and the tragedy of Screech's real life. Plus, we reminisce about the hilarious "star" experience we got when we were invited to the worst gifting suite of all time, but it keeps us humble. 00:00 - Sarah's Vegas Trip to the Enhanced Games and Athletic Performance 12:53 - Mourning the Loss of All-You-Can-Eat Buffets in Las Vegas 21:50 - Revisiting Ted Danson's Controversial Blackface Roast of Whoopi Goldberg 28:28 - The Real-Life Owners of Iconic Movie and TV Show Homes 39:30 - From E.L.F.
