Dan kicks things off by saying that he would like to be in charge of making the rules. This is not a new statement but what set him off this time? Qdoba! That is right, after an enraging experience at Qdoba, Dan has some new rules he would like to put in place. Think you know what they are? Only one way to find out!
Nicole’s battle with her TV/internet/phone carrier took an unexpected turn when it appeared her phone was blocked by the carrier. How did she find out? What happened? It is a story for the ages! We also find out that both her husband AND Dan think it is hilarious when she gets really mad.
Dan was in Duluth over the weekend and has some interesting things to say about the population there and had quite an experience involving Venmo.
What do you do when nature calls but your plane is descending? In one case that recently made the news, you take off your pants and poop with there on your seat. This actually happened on an inbound flight into Chicago’s Midway airport, on a Southwest flight. Choose your own seat, indeed.
And finally, a kid scratches a painting in a museum, and while Nicole wants to talk about who should pay and kids running wild, all Dan can talk about is how he could make art equal to this particular piece. Will he? Should he? Let us know what YOU think!
All of this and oh so much more on episode 97.

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame announced their inductees and there is always at least one where Nicole says to herself, “wait, aren’t they already IN the hall of fame??” and this year is no different. So Nicole and Dan go through the list of the new folks and share some thoughts on who they thought was already in, what made someone get in this time and just general thoughts on their music. Neither has actually been to the museum so it might be time for a SSP road trip!
Speaking of award shows, the Oscars were in the news this week with a new rule for academy voters. The new rule is that folks have to watch all the moves before voting. HOW WAS THIS NOT ALREADY A RULE?! The team chats about the “new” rule and the Oscars in general.
And finally, the great Chicago liquor that is Malort announced a new item on Monday, hard candy! We talk about the brand, their marketing team and the experience that is Malort. We also reminisce about some times we had on the radio, eating things that we will never forget.
All of this and more in this week’s episode. Thanks again for joining us, we will see you next week! Unless you are a spinner. If you are, you have some BONUS content coming your way.

Hello and welcome to episode 95 of the Still Spinning Podcast, this week with a visual screen share for those who watch the video. More on that in a bit. This episode was recorded on 4/20 which means it was Easter AND 4/20. A double holiday for sure.
There was a space flight this past week that got a lot of attention and the podcast would be remiss not to give it attention as well. 5 famous ladies went up into space and got a lot of flak. Dan agrees with most of the flak being unwarranted BUT there was one big issue he brought to the table and that is the fact that the flight was called “Making Space for Women.” Listen in to hear his biggest issue with this.
There is something out there called “Flight Theory” and it is creating some havoc in the travel community. The idea is you can arrive 15 minutes before boarding and just breeze onto your flight. Well, you can imagine Dan and Nicole have some thoughts on that. They also share their travel timing and tips on TSA precheck.(the tip is you should have it)
A woman took to the internet to get feedback on her letting her kid eat snacks they had not yet paid for while grocery shopping and the internet had a LOT to say about it. And so do the podcasters! We chat about the idea of even doing this as well as some hidden “grossness” within the idea of it.
Speaking of gross, there is a new research team working on lab-grown chicken and it is GROSS. We share the story, and some images, of the meat and the process. It is not necessarily a new idea BUT this piece of chicken is the biggest one they have grown so far. Did I mention it looks (and sounds) gross??
All of this and more on this week’s episode! Check out our website at stillspinningpodcast.com for even more fun ways to support the podcast, get some merch and even listen to “old” episodes.

Ever have a day when you realize you have your underwear on inside out?? Nicole has and it was the day this was recorded so THAT is how we kick things off on this episode. Where can we possibly go from there??
We can go into talking about a new “fad” that is sweeping the nation (but is it?). Hatchelorette Parties. You read that right. Think baby shower meets bachelorette party and then remove all the things you know about both. We discuss this new trend and dip our toes into baby showers of yesteryear. Dan also shares his “secret” to a long and happy marriage and the story involves a dishwasher.
Daylight Saving time always seems to be in the news and today is no different. The US is looking to do away with it. What would that mean? Have they really thought it through? You know Nicole and Dan have not but they will discuss anyway! It leads in a discussion on military time and Celsius versus Fahrenheit.
Ever left something in a car? Well Uber collects the lost and found stuff (which as I type that, seems odd. It is not like there is an office to drop all this stuff off at… is there??) Either way, they released a new list of weird stuff left in cars and I gotta say, some if it is really weird. Dan learns what the term LARPer means and literally cannot stop laughing.
It was a good day here at the Still Spinning Podcast! Thanks so much for joining us.

Dan has been living with a false memory of Nicole and the air finally gets cleared up during the episode. How does this tie into the Crocodile Hunter’s adult son and his new underwear campaign? Tune in to find out. Dan thinks it is weird and creepy that “older” ladies are all about this new campaign but Nicole thinks hey, old is not dead!
Bathroom Divorce is a new trend and honestly, this one I totally understand. The idea of each person having their own bathroom. Nicole and Dan both share their current bathroom situations and Dan tells us why he always brings his own toiletries to a hotel. Nicole will never look at the hotel ones the same way. Dan also shares the two things he NEEDS from a hotel, think you know what they are? I bet you cannot guess one of them!
NOT A JOKE, KFC has partnered with a toothpaste company to make TOOTHPASTE THAT TASTES LIKE CHICKEN. I could barf just typing that. April Fool’s inspired this but it is a real thing, You can also get a KFC toothbrush. So gross.
And lastly, casual dining places are folding faster than you can say Hooters. Why? Dan and Nicole discuss the changes that have happened, their own experiences with some of the bankruptcy chains and Dan admits his Hooters past was mostly to make Nicole mad.
All of this and so much more on episode 93 of the Still Spinning Podcast.
