Noodlin' about Ergonomics
from Noodlin' with Josh · host Trip Hazard Presents
In this episode of Noodlin’ with Josh, we dive deep into the weirdly intimate relationship between a person and their workspace. Josh opens up about the joys and hazards of life spent behind multiple monitors, light stands, microphones, and an apartment floor that’s slowly surrendering to his sitting habits. It’s part ergonomics rant, part love letter to his highly customized home studio—and part existential spiral into career relocation anxiety. From tales of testing toys with mommy bloggers during his time at Zappos and Exploding Kittens, to ruminations on marketing burnout and the fantasy of starting over in a new city, Josh explores what it means to stay grounded (or not) when your career—and your chair—are both showing signs of wear. Whether you're obsessed with your desk setup, considering a big move for work, or just vibing with the chaos of creative life, this episode blends tech talk, memory lane, and mid-career reflection in the most Josh way possible. 🎧 Topics include: Why his desk setup could be a sci-fi prop Ergonomic guilt and worn-down floors Microphone obsessions and audio neuroses Marketing nostalgia (Zappos, Exploding Kittens, etc.) The very real fear of relocation An open invite for you to be a guest and reflect on your own moves—career or otherwise 👉 Leave a comment on Spotify (he can’t delete them) 📞 Call in to share your relocation story—Josh wants to hear it 🎙️ Theme music incoming
