Shift Happened

Houston and Stitch open Monday with a $105 cup of coffee out of San Francisco, complete with Brazilian beans, Tokyo roasting, and a blind taste test that went sideways for the owner. Houston has some very specific ideas about what would make that price worth it. Then they meet Chantz, who pushed a shopping cart across the country with $250, a machete, and a jar of peanut butter. A mathematician also crunched your odds of finding the one on any given day, which leads Houston to explain how he met his wife of thirty years at a bar while hardly...

Stitch, Russ and Zacy Moon have started a band called the Pizza Slayer Band, and Houston has thoughts. Zack drops a defense of pineapple on pizza that turns into a full speech on tolerance, which lands right as an Australian chef gets fired for refusing to make one. Then there’s an AI baby bunny that says some very un-bunny things, and a Big Ten game where your bathroom break helps grow next year’s crops. Hosted on Acast.

Houston and Stitch are back in their old second shift studio with brand new mics. Stitch decides it’s a good time to hold a memorial for two co-workers who are very much alive. He also admits to something involving DoorDash and the Jersey Mike’s across the street, and Houston is not letting it go. Plus a look at the brand new cities being built from scratch, a shower survey on what people wash first, and a National Redhead Day fact that ends the show right there. Hosted on Acast.

Election hangover hits the Second Shift. Houston swaps in blue songs, Stitch celebrates the school bond, and the 401(k) gets checked more than once. Stitch pitches Coca-Cola a retro ad that turns Diet Coke into a “fridge cigarette,” complete with a perm and an ashtray. Then an online poll asks if you’d eat from a bowl someone threw up in after it’s been washed, and the follow-up question gets much worse. Also in this episode: a million-dollar doorstop.
