Everyone makes mistakes. We're human. But the biggest mistake to make is not learning from things you got wrong. After over 600 episodes of The Brain Candy Podcast, Sarah Rice and Susie Meister realized their freewheeling, casual conversations didn't always get everything exactly right. And as they evolved and grew over the years and science developed, they changed their minds about a lot of things. So it's Things We Got Wrong to the rescue! This podcast is a celebration of humility, evolution, and growth, and says it's ok to make mistakes and change your mind. It's time to move forward by looking back!

Today we cover episode 11 of Brain Candy, which was about online dating. We realize how different Sarah was when she was married to her ex and how wrong we were about his "bromance" with Susie's husband Adam. We cover the science behind online dating, and why the apps offer an imperfect solution to a complex problem. Despite their flaws, Sarah keeps having good luck finding partners on apps, and apparently a lot of other people are too. Susie confesses to her judgment of niche communities and how she knows it's wrong, but can't help it sometimes.
