What the hell is going on with our tongues?

In Episode 7 of Shit Talk Corner, Kelly and Zane bring another round of completely different topics to the Corner, and somehow it all comes together under one perfectly weird title: Tongue Problems.

From strange facts and questionable conversations to the random side roads we definitely didn’t plan on taking, this episode has plenty of laughs, real talk, and those classic STC moments where we wonder how the conversation got here in the first place.

Grab a drink, get comfortable, and come hang out in the Corner.

Sex, relationships, intimacy, and getting older… because apparently everything changes with age.

In Episode 6, Pile of Love, Kelly and Zane get real about how relationships and intimacy evolve over the years. From changing bodies and shifting priorities to keeping the spark alive, communicating what you want, and figuring out what closeness looks like in different stages of life, we’re putting it all in the Corner.

It’s honest, funny, a little awkward, and probably way more relatable than any of us want to admit.

Because love might change as we get older, sex might change, and relationships definitely change, but there’s still plenty of shit to talk about.

This week on Shit Talk Corner, Kelly and Zane are taking a trip without ever leaving the Corner.

In Episode 5, “Fly to San Francisco to Give It a Try,” we dive into another completely random topic, packed with questionable facts, unexpected twists, plenty of laughs, and the kind of conversations that somehow make perfect sense to us.

So buckle up, grab your headphones, and fly to San Francisco with us to give it a try.

Episode 4: Shit, Alien or Time Traveler? 👽⏳

Things are getting weird in the Corner.

In Episode 4, Kelly and Zane dive into a story that raises one very important question: Shit... alien or time traveler?

We’re digging into the strange details, questionable theories, bizarre possibilities, and just enough research to make us wonder what the hell is actually going on.

Was it something extraterrestrial? Someone who slipped through time? A perfectly reasonable explanation that we’ll completely overthink? Who knows.

Expect theories, laughs, random facts, side trips we definitely didn’t plan, and plenty of shit talking along the way.

Everyone has an opinion on the "right" way to use toilet paper... and somehow it turns into a full-blown debate. This week, Kelly and Zane tackle one of life's most ridiculous questions: Do you hang it over or under? Are you a folder or a scruncher?

What starts as a simple bathroom habit quickly spirals into laughs, questionable logic, random tangents, and the kind of unfiltered conversation you've come to expect from Shit Talk Corner. Along the way, we share stories, challenge each other's opinions, and probably judge you just a little based on your answers.

So grab your headphones (and maybe check your toilet paper roll), because this episode is proof that no topic is too weird to end up in the corner.

Seth Wheeler's 1891 Patent
The original patent illustrations for Seth Wheeler's perforated toilet paper roll depict the paper hanging over the front of the roll. While the patent itself was for the invention of perforated toilet paper, not the preferred hanging orientation, the illustration is the primary reason many people argue that "over" is the original and intended method.

Cottonelle – Over or Under?
Cottonelle reports that approximately 70% of people prefer the "over" orientation. Their research outlines the advantages and disadvantages of both "over" and "under," noting that around 20% of people become annoyed when the toilet paper is hung the "wrong" way. They also found that many people admit to quietly changing the orientation of the roll when visiting someone else's home.

We're back, and this time we've got a little more structure... but don't worry, we're still as real and unfiltered as ever.

In this episode, we bring actual topics to the table, share some laughs, tell a few stories, and somehow end up asking the important question: Are bison actually fluffy cows? (Yeah... it makes sense once you hear it.)

Shit Talk Corner is all about honest conversations, random tangents, and plenty of laughs. No scripts, no pretending, just two Montanans talking about whatever ends up in the corner.

The NPS also provides a valuable research summary showing that 25 people were injured by bison between 2000 and 2015, with 22 requiring medical treatment and 12 being hospitalized.

- PubMed / CDC Study: Injuries Associated with Bison Encounters in Yellowstone National Park. This study was a key statistical source. It reports that 33 people were injured during 1983 to 1985 and confirms that, since 1980, bison have injured more pedestrian visitors in Yellowstone than any other animal.

- Smithsonian Magazine: Used for historical context and reporting on Yellowstone bison attacks, including the 2022 incident in which a woman was tossed approximately 10 feet into the air. The article also discusses historical injury statistics.

🎙️ Something new is starting, and we'd love and appreciate your support!

Zane and Kelly have started a podcast! It's about nothing and everything all at the same time.

Each week, we'll dive into different topics, share funny stories, and talk about real-life moments. We'll steer clear of the classic first-date "no-no" topics, but just know... we're who we are, and we're always going to keep it real.

This podcast is raw, real, and a little messy... just like life. We definitely don't have it all figured out, and we're learning as we go. Every episode will get a little better, but we wanted to bring you along from the very beginning.

So laugh with us, shake your head at us, and enjoy the ride! If you like what you hear, please give us a listen, then like, subscribe, and follow. Your support means the world to us, and we can't wait to see where this crazy journey takes us. The best is yet to come! ❤️🎙️
