Hello and welcome to episode 131 of the Still Spinning Podcast. We did not record live this week because Dan got trapped in Ohio. We hear all about his adventure in the snow! Did you know, in Ohio, you can actually get arrested for driving during a “level 3” snow emergency? It is true! Apparently it is also true that both Ohio and Indiana have trouble clearing their snow.

Trees can EXPLODE?! The social media channels were all aglow with stories of exploding trees during this arctic cold snap the country just had. Dan explains the phenomenon and clears up some misconceptions.

And finally, The Sun did a study on people who cheat on their romantic partners and what kind of music those people listen to. Do you think you know who is most likely to cheat? Tune in to find out some of the top genres that really get people in the mood.

We will NOT be live next week either as Nicole will be off the grid BUT there will be a Bonus episode for the Spinners and maybe even a recorded episode for you, our gen pop listener. Check out our website, stillspinningpodcast.com for more info. Have a great week!

Dan and his wife have an ongoing argument that Dan brings to the podcast this week to get some outside perspective. Nicole is on team Jennie on this one, where do you think you will side. It has to do with a running car in a garage. This leads to a belief instilled in Nicole from her grandfather about gas freezing in your car in the wintertime. Funny what we “learn” from outside sources and what sticks with us.

Some parents in Staten Island started a BRAWL at a 6th grade basketball game and now there are new rules for the parents. Dan was an umpire for kid’s baseball and can attest to the issue of parents at games. We talk about kids' sports getting absolutely out of control which leads into a whole discussion about Nicole growing up riding horses and Dan’s utter shock learning she used to be a barrel racer.

Dan shares some good news in the research world for curing alzheimer’s disease. We can guarantee you will not see this coming. But you might smell it!

And finally, McDonald’s is facing a class action lawsuit that is all about the McRib and people feeling “misled” by the name of the sandwich. Nicole and Dan discuss the standards and expectations of eating at McDonald’s and whether anyone is surprised that the McRib is NOT actually rib.

There really is a lot more to today’s podcast but we will let you discover it all for yourself. Thanks for tuning in!

Hello and welcome to episode 129 of the Still Spinning Podcast. We hope your new year is going well so far and we thank you for joining us.

Dan starts things off by fueling Nicole’s fear of self driving cars. A Waymo in Arizona got off track (or on track, might be a better description) causing the passenger to have to make a split second decision. Would YOU get in a self-driving car?? The team discusses this along with a few other things that have happened with these cars.

There are times in life where Nicole needs Dan’s knowledge and she found herself in a situation this week where she needed to know the correct thing to do involving a clear traffic distraction. Was this a 911 situation? Tune in to hear what happened and what Dan’s thoughts were on on the best course of action.

There are MONKEYS loose in St. Louis and no one seems to know why or where they came from. Imagine going to your car and seeing a monkey! What would you do?? And AI has made the situation even harder to manage, can you guess why?

And finally, an answer to urinal messiness coming our of Amsterdam. Flies in the urinals to give the boys something to aim for! This tactic has reduced cleaning costs by 8%, which is pretty substantial. Also, Dan has an amazing idea for some gas station to pick up, this might be his best idea to date.
