    Welcome to episode #69 (yep, we said it)! Dan has a new game obsession and it involves solving crimes. He has turned his kitchen into an evidence/crime charting room and Nicole has to admit, it sounds like a lot of fun! Nicole witnessed a disturbing customer service interaction over the weekend and shares the story and her reaction. Dan chimes in about his wife's worry about him getting involved in altercations he sees happening in the world. Food sharing—is this just because we are getting old? Do we now want to share meals with our spouses? Also, it is a new trend to see the calories on the menu, and what a shock it is. Dan likes watching videos of people traveling around on different types of transit. He saw a video recently that really turned him off for a particular mode of transportation, can you guess what it is? An unruly passenger in Australia was recently ordered to reimburse the airline for gas money and Dan and Nicole are all for it. They talk about some other fines folks on airlines have incurred and Dan shares some inside information on kicking people off planes. All of this and oh so much more on episode 69 (hehehe) of the Still Spinning Podcast. Check out our website at stillspinningpodcast.com.

    Welcome to episode 68 of the Still Spinning Podcast. This was recorded much later than usual, at 9 PM, so get ready for some loosy-goosey late night fun. Schools are back in session and that means that the "banned" items are hitting some news stories. There is a Wisconsin school that just banned cell phones, something that is getting pretty common, but what other things are being banned? Some you will guess, some you will not. Tune in to hear the chatter. Should adults share a hotel room... ever? Dan was asked by a comedy booker to share a room with someone he barely knew. Nicole just got back from a weekend with family and did share a room. They chat about the pros and cons of this kind of set up. Finally, a woman in Maine went viral for the way she wrote her mother's obituary. Dan and Nicole have different views on it, so take a listen and see who you side with. There is a moral to this story: Be careful how you treat people when you are alive, especially if they have any say in what is said about you publicly when you are dead. All of this and so much more on today's episode. Check out our website, stillspinningpodcast.com, to find out how you can become a Spinner, catch up on old episodes and buy some merch. See you next week!

    Hello everyone and welcome to episode 67 of the Still Spinning Podcast. Can you believe it is SEPTEMBER?! We cannot. We also cannot believe how delicious the new Nicole and Dan's Head Spinning Hot Sauce is! And if you are a Spinner, you have your very own bottle coming in the mail this week. If you are NOT a Spinner but would like to get your hands on a bottle, we have a very limited quantity for sale. Just email dan@stillspinningpodcast.com and express your interest. We kick things off tonight by talking about a poor soul who died at their desk at a big, corporate office, and was not discovered for FOUR DAYS. Talk about a total nightmare. Nicole shares this fear as well as one that involves eating while home alone. Dan also has a place he would hate to die. Lots of chatter about a very serious topic but do not worry, we add the levity it needs. We then move on to talking about a VERY bad child who broke a VERY old artifact in a museum and how the museum is handling it. And how we would handle it. And who we blame. Which is a nice segue into a new warning from the U.S. Surgeon General about how bad parenting is for your health. Duh. And finally, Dan shares a video with us all about a minor league baseball team's new bat DOG and how their first outing on the field went. We also hear about Dan's past as a bat boy and how serious he took this role. Maybe he still does. Either way, this video is hilarious. All of this and so much more on the 67th episode. Check out our website stillspinningpodcast.com for more information on becoming a Spinner, back episodes of the podcast and how you can buy some sweet swag. Thanks for listening/watching!

    Hello everyone and welcome to episode 66 of the Still Spinning Podcast. Dan has a fun gift he is sending to our Spinners this week so if you are not one of them, now is the time to sign up! Go to our website, stillspinningpodcast.com, to get more details. It is hot all over the US right now, and Nicole's off-topic comment reveals a weird product Dan has in his possession. Tourism is taking a hit all over the world, for many reasons. There was an article published last week that talked about why this is happening and Nicole and Dan chat about tourism, tourists and a lot of the negativity that is happening in the world around it. This leads us into an article Dan found around the 10 "most fun" states and the 10 "least fun" states. Were there any surprises? Tune in to find out. Apple Air Tags are changing the world! One woman used an air tag to track down mail thieves and her plan worked! Two people were arrested. Dan has some insight into air tags and how folks are using them to stop crimes, it is pretty interesting. But also creates some issues. All of this and even more on this week's episode!

    Welcome to episode 65 of the Still Spinning Podcast. Summer is winding down, and the weather is getting nicer, but Dan and Nicole still seem up in arms about something. First on the list is Grammar Nerd Dan and the use of the 's. Or just the '. It depends on the situation. This story kicks off because of the press, their use of the possessive tense, and the last name, Harris. The chat chimes in and Dan will hear nothing of it. He also shares some other recent arguments he has gotten into online, and both he and Nicole really lean into being old and start blaming the younger generation for pretty much all the world's problems. There is a new term out there for parents: Venmo Mom. This is a person who does not want to volunteer to do any of the things at the kid's school but is happy to Venmo some cash to help. Nicole is all for this, but Dan thinks it is "bad parenting." Tune in to hear the arguments. Wedding season is almost over, but we get another story about new wedding "trends." The story has two. First, there is the idea of the non-invite, where family and friends are sent a card saying they are NOT invited to the wedding. Second, there is texting those who are with their "jobs" for the day, including setting up and tearing down the reception. You know Dan and Nicole have some thoughts on both. Finally, the kids do something right. Generation Z has been using some hilarious and appropriate out-of-office messages. This kicks off a discussion on whether to use an OOO or not. Also, I just realized that Dan probably does not even know Nicole does not put two spaces behind every period in these recaps. You can find out more about us, how to become a Spinner, and some merch by visiting stillspinningpodcast.com. Thanks for checking us out and we will see you next week!

    Welcome to week 64 of the Still Spinning Podcast. Dan starts this week's episode off with a bang, inserting some video from Nicole's show (that she does with her husband Paul) last week into the intro. Nicole was NOT expecting it and it is a pretty funny video and exchange. The Olympics just ended and Dan did not watch a single moment, something Nicole still finds shocking. But Nicole gives a recap, they discuss why Dan is not a fan and also what new sports we have to look forward to in LA for the next summer games. There is also quite a bit of talk about a certain pole valuter's.... pole. Another event that just ended was the Wisconsin State Fair, Nicole's favorite thing. She recaps the fair's highs and lows, talks about the new circus, and explains how she created a Fair Guide for some people visiting Milwaukee for the first time. In other news, Des Moines has a real backyard chicken problem on their hands. There is a law saying you can have backyard chickens in the city but apparently there are some issues and they want to change the law. Currently you can have THIRTY CHICKENS in your city backyard, can you even imagine?? All of this and so much more on this week's episode. Please remember to subscribe on YouTube, Facebook, Instagram or even X and visit our website (stillspinningpodcast.com) and learn about becoming a Spinner. We will see you next week!

    Hello everyone and welcome to episode 63 of the Still Spinning Podcast! A reminder, we will be OFF next week, no regular episode. BUT the Spinners will get some bonus content so now is a good time to sign up. Southwest Airlines has announced they are doing away with their seating policy, which allows you to pick your own. This kicks us off on a tangent about Southwest, what we love and hate about them, and a cautionary take from Dan about flying Southwest out of Vegas. The CEO of Chipotle is making news for insisting their "heaping portions" are still there, despite what some of the TikTok posters have been putting on their feeds. He has come out before with some weird ways to up your scoops and we talk about it. Dan also lays out the 2 worst things of going to a Chipotle or Qdoba and that leads Nicole and Dan down a path about parents and children and a large wooden spoon. And finally, George Lopez walked off stage during his set last week because of hecklers. Dan, as a professional comedian, has some strong opinions on why he did and hecklers in general. All of this and SO MUCH MORE on this week's episode. Check out our website at Still Spinning Podcast to find out how to become a Spinner and get that sweet bonus content. See you in 2 weeks!

    Hello everyone and welcome to episode 62 of the Still Spinning Podcast. This week we really focused on topics that take us all away from the heavy news that is dominating the other news sources. We kick things off talking about Dan's new life plan which is to live in an RV half the time and stay at people's houses pet sitting for the rest of the time. We talk about this plan fairly in-depth. Apparently, there is a website you can become a member of that allows you to stay, sometimes for extended periods of time, in someone's house to take care of their pets. In this segment Dan accidentally let it slip that he recently got some new item for his cat but would not share what it was. This comes back later. And it is WORTH IT. No one should be surprised to hear that an influencer had a tragic fall recently while making an Instagram video. This leads us down a path of people being absolutely unaware of their surroundings and living through their phones. Put that damn phone down and watch the actual concert!! Netflix just announced they are getting rid of their basic (most affordable) option. This kicks off a whole discussion on the downfall of cable, streaming services and what our lives have become. And finally, Nicole convinces Dan to tell the story of what he got for the cat and it made her laugh SO DAMN HARD. Worth checking out. Thanks for listening! Visit our website at stillspinningpodcast.com to find out more about us, back episodes, MERCH and most importantly, how YOU can become a Spinner.
