Happy Halloween!
On this very spooky Thursday, Caroline has a trick-or-treat special episode of the podcast with famous quotes that we have been tricked into thinking are by someone else or mean something entirely different than their original intent. After recounting a chilling investor lunch about the real scariest creature on Earth (spoiler: it might be us), she takes us wandering door-to-door through a haunted neighborhood of famous quotes that have been totally, wildly, hilariously misattributed.

Marie Antoinette?
Sherlock Holmes?
Einstein?
And fun twist… “blood is thicker than water” originally meant the opposite of what you think.

Together we peek behind the mask of cultural memory to see how stories morph, how language plays tricks, and how people make history whether they behave or not. It’s a light-hearted candy bag full of fact checking, nostalgia, and the occasional existential jump scare about humanity itself.

Caroline leaves you with a watchlist of her favorite Halloween films, a plastic pumpkin full of curiosity, and one final reminder: humans may be the scariest species out there… but she may be wrong.
