Disneyland is a wonderful place where children's dreams come true. For a price. We all know going to Disney or any theme park ain't cheap, but if everything is so expensive, why do they pay their employees so little? Is the happiest place on Earth, making people poor? Do people care? Why do we feed into the commercialism? Because it just makes you so damn happy, thats why. Joining Amber and Ed this week is Roast Battle comedian and former Disneyland employee Nicole Becannon.

Who are Trolls, who are they, are they someone in their mother's basement, or are they someone with a beautiful family and a double life?  Who knows.  What we can assume is that Trolls are people who feel awful all the time, and try and make everyone else feel like they do.  But there has to be some good in there right?????

Out of every race on Earth no one has had it as hard as The Native Americans. They received maybe the worst genocide this world has ever seen, yet they still have resolve, honor, and respect. Let's examine what has happened to these people. They have been through so much we could not unpack it all in one episode, in PT 1 we talk their plight when the Spanish Inquisition came to America, how to talk to someone who descends from that culture, and what it's like now for Native Americans. Joining Amber and Ed is Lakota Sioux comedian Jana Schmieding. Also taking us out this week is a song from Mel Brooks' History of the World Part 1.

It's an end of the Earth society.  It's a way of life that most people would not choose.  Who would want to live amongst the wet, slimey, scaley, carnivorous creatures down there (And that's just the humans).  Ed and Amber talk about what it was like growing up in that beautiful muck.  And joining them again is The Queen of LPN, Ole Puddle Pants herself, Miss Jackie Zebrowski.   Takin' us out today is a lil "Swamp Music" brought to you by no one else other than Lynyrd Skynyrd!  Get a 4 week trial at http://stamps.com with promo code: BRIGHTERSIDE.
