Ricochet is the best place on the internet to discuss the issues of the day, either through commenting on posts or writing your own for our active and dynamic community in a fully moderated environment. In addition, the Ricochet Audio Network offers over 50 original podcasts with new episodes released every day.
Sarah Rose Siskind is a science comedy writer, psychedelic educator, comedian, and co-founder of Hello SciCom, a company that combines science communication and comedy to help scientists and tech companies revamp their content. She and Bridget discuss homelessness, how little we knew in our 20s, sobriety & pharmaceuticals, why D.A.R.E. is a terrible program, pandemic-induced anxiety, why mental health issues are like spousal abuse, and why people shouldn’t treat weed as a cure-all. They swap crazy Burning Man stories, discuss classism, agree that art is one of the things humans do right, commiserate over comedian-brain, and highlight the importance of knowing your audience in any given situation.

Good conversation. The two hours went by quickly. Sarah is a fascinating person, and it makes for great conversation on a breadth of topics. Her intellectual honesty and objectivity are compelling. Interesting to hear how she thinks, and her general curiosity with life surely seeds some of the great fruits of thought which arose.
And, yes, Bridget and Maggie, I did make it to the very end. :-) Keep up the good work, Team Phetasy!
