"It's a PRANK!"
 Apparently, these words are so powerful that grant anyone who says them is granted absolution, or even immunity, from any perceived wrongdoings. (Or at least that what we've learned from the Internet! LOL) 
WE BACK IN THE THANG!! and today is a huge episode for a couple of reasons!!
1) It's WHYI's Birthday 🥳  (we've officially made year of this production)
2) Clara is BACK!😃

Today, we're discussing prank culture and all its irreverent glory.   We're entering a stage where we, as a society, need to take a hard look at ourselves and consider is some of this stuff worth our laughs and attention.

In this episode, we cover:
- the unhealthy value we ascribe to attention
- the psychology if the prankers and the potential danger they put themselves in
- the various ways pranks can affect  the "prankees" 
- the effects that prank culture have on society as a whole

There's nothing wrong with a little chuckle at some of this content.  We just hope people consider the other aspects of this kind of content and, most importantly, keep in mind what should and should not be considered decency and common courtesy in real life!  Thanks for tuning in!
