Unlikely that this topic speaks much to most on this board... but I did sit down to watch the Goop Netflix series that just dropped yesterday. 6 episodes, half-hour each.

Truly dreadful. Pseudoscience bull ****. Touches on energy healing, psychedelics, speaking to the dead, cold yoga, and health-span dieting.

THE ONLY redeeming episode was the 3rd, "The Pleasure is Ours" which broached topics on sex education, body awareness, reducing sex shame stigmas, and female anatomy education. It was the only one that felt like a true expert was guiding the way in Betty Dodson. At the very least, for those of you with wives, it might help in the bedroom.

Good review here:

If any of your girlfriends or wives try and trick you into watching it... just say no. I lost of a lot of respect for Netflix for putting this content out there. Goop is a dangerous brand and true 21st-century snake oil sales.

TY - big sacrifice there by you. I think I'll stick to watching Gwyneth in the Iron Man movies.

you knew it was very likely to suck before you even started, and then you verified that it sucked 5 minutes into it.

why waste the next 2 hours and 55 minutes of your life extending the suckage?

The 10ish year old company is valued at $250million + and rising. I'm in my early 30s. Curiosity and a desire to understand the absurd. Plus I had some house chore mundane tasks to do in tandem.

since it would appear that I value your time more than you do, I am compelled to offer you the following private service announcement:

star trek: picard sucked. it sucked comprehensively and relentlessly; even violently at points. avoid at all costs.

you are very, very welcome.
