Remember The Dress? (with Albertina Rizzo)
This week on the podcast, we are joined by writer Albertina Rizzo who you might know from her work on "The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon" and a little show called "I Love That For You" starring one of our hosts! Together we take a deep dive into our apple picking experiences, the phenomenon of free fruit growing on trees and what it was like to scavenge 30 Rock for late night snacks. Then we get into our topic, the 2015 viral online phenomenon "The Dress." Was it blue or was it white? Why was it so captivating to people nearly a decade ago? Is there a Facebook group for those of us who lack the ability to decipher optical illusions? Finally we play a round of CHANGE.DORK where we discuss the frustrating nature of self-checkout lanes, the seemingly never ending trend of QR code menus and the pros and cons of a water-flavored Pop Tart. So grab a warm mug of apple cider and enjoy this fantastically fall episode of HOW DID WE GET WEIRD?!
