"Simpatico"
Podcast: Snap Judgement (Episode 605)
Very nice and entertaining set of stories. I especially enjoyed the second and third stories.
Second story - "When the two greatest auction houses in the world - Christies and Sothebys -- vied for the privilege of auctioning off $20 million worth of art in 2004, little did they know that they would be forced to engage in an ancient form of ritualized combat known as...rock paper scissors."
Third story - "Dawn always felt disconnected from the rest of the world. Her undiagnosed Autism prevented her from understanding her surroundings without a protective barrier...until she found another creature like her, behind a barrier."
I just love life stories of people like Dawn's.
