Leslie survives an emergency root canal while the whole city keeps flickering on and off, so the crew turns her tooth horror story into comedy, complete with the infamous two thirty joke. They relive the Great Power Outage of 2025 and imagine what life would look like if the grid stayed dark for years, from scavenging candles to forming weird little post power communities. Along the way they argue about an AI country hit topping the charts, talk about an app that lets you FaceTime your dead relatives, roast dangerous TikTok challenges, and gear up for Mountain West Beer Fest....

Leslie disappears for an emergency root canal, so Houston walks Stitch through the wild history of dentistry, from ancient skull drilling to the days when cocaine showed up in the exam chair. Then the crew dreams up what life looks like when someone hits a trillion dollars, from buying Switzerland to wiping out hunger at home, and why that tidal wave of cash feels so weird. Along the way they hit the death of the penny, a Little Caesars run at 107 miles an hour, World Kindness Day, she sheds and a big invite to Mountain West Beer Fest. Hosted...

Shift Happened recaps every weekday afternoon on The Kat 98.7 and 93.9 The Mix, and this one cranks the chaos in all the right ways. The crew rides out a so called cannibal solar storm, plans for a five year blackout, and debates how to survive with a gas stove and a bottle of aurora water. From golden blood and gene edited super donors to the words everyone secretly googles how to say, the conversation jumps from gyro and Worcestershire to a wind storm called a derecho. Then it moves into candy cane struggles, status symbol coffee cups, and a...

On this episode of Shift Happened, Houston and Leslie fall headfirst into the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald on its 50th anniversary, from TikTok tributes to why Gordon Lightfoot wrote a six minute sea shanty with no chorus. They dig into eerie details from Lake Superior, human remains on the lake floor, and why the ship is now a protected gravesite. Then the vibe swerves into the uncanny as they check out an ultra lifelike Chinese robot with very deliberate curves and talk about what our tech choices say about us. There is a new seventh sense in the mix...

A fresh recap of The Second Shift between 3 and 7 pm with the crew spiraling delightfully into our trivia obsession before Tapped Out Trivia at Pour 54. We chase the roots of trivia from campus quizzers to bar bragging rights, then riff on the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame lineup and what rock even means anymore. A Maine hospital’s oops letter that read Sorry you died adds a morbid laugh, and we cap it with the eternal debate over when holiday music should hit the speakers. Hosted on Acast.

Leslie returns from Colorado with Buc-ee’s stories, a keychain, and a brisket chant still echoing in her soul. She road-tests a mountain yurt in Ward and shares tea talk from Celestial Seasonings. We fire up Mountain West Beer Fest hype, toss out Rush ticket giveaways, and go all in on moon water during the Full Beaver Moon as the crew dares someone to slap a Buc-ee’s logo on the sky. Plus a marathon Guinness name, checks vs cash chaos, and the preview of a game show called Nation’s Dumbest. All the weekday 3 to 7 pm breaks from The Kat...

A cozy fight breaks out over downtown decking the halls early, then we blast off into the wildest headline of the week with a black hole flare brighter than ten trillion suns. We also hammer the company card for Oreo’s Thanksgiving tin and plot a studio taste test of turkey and stuffing crème. Top it off with a Beer Fest tease that may include a mechanical bull and human-sized party games. Fun, chaotic, and extremely snacky. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Shift Happened is the daily recap of The Second Shift on The Kat 98.7 and 93.9 The Mix, covering every break from 3 to 7 pm. Today’s ride features Vikings victory strut energy, a World Series heart-stopper with a Will Smith meme twist, and a Beerfest tease that adds a mechanical bull to the human foosball madness. You’ll also learn why sour candy is a dentist’s nightmare and what a six-pound phone case does to doomscrolling. Leslie is off on a Buc-ees and yurt adventure, the supermoon vibes are strong, and daylight saving takes a well-aimed rant. Skol and buckle...

Devil’s Night in the Halloween studio gets rowdy as Leslie, Stitch, and Houston dig into the poisoned candy panic, including the wild true cases that kept the myth alive. Then it’s a tour of iconic haunts from the Brown Lady of Raynham Hall to the Enfield Poltergeist and the Bell Witch. Dictionary.com’s pick of the year sparks a chorus of six seven. We wrap with a life-satisfaction ladder that proves more happy really does mean more healthy. All the 3 to 7 fun from The Kat 98.7 and 93.9 The Mix. Hosted on Acast.

Aliens at perihelion, zombies by rhesus monkey, and a taste test with the sweetest song on YouTube. The crew kicks things off with the interstellar buzz around 3I ATLAS and wonders if a mothership is circling the block. Then a truck crash in Mississippi unleashes a monkey panic worthy of an outbreak flick. Finally, everyone eats chocolate to a “sweetest melody” and learns why Hershey’s can taste a little… tangy to Europeans thanks to butyric acid. It’s the best of the 3 to 7 run from The Kat 98.7 and 93.9 The Mix, minus the songs and plus the chaos....
