Still Spinning on 04.23.25

Hello and welcome to episode 95 of the Still Spinning Podcast, this week with a visual screen share for those who watch the video. More on that in a bit. This episode was recorded on 4/20 which means it was Easter AND 4/20. A double holiday for sure. There was a space flight this past week that got a lot of attention and the podcast would be remiss not to give it attention as well. 5 famous ladies went up into space and got a lot of flak. Dan agrees with most of the flak being unwarranted BUT there was one big issue he brought to the table and that is the fact that the flight was called “Making Space for Women.” Listen in to hear his biggest issue with this. There is something out there called “Flight Theory” and it is creating some havoc in the travel community. The idea is you can arrive 15 minutes before boarding and just breeze onto your flight. Well, you can imagine Dan and Nicole have some thoughts on that. They also share their travel timing and tips on TSA precheck.(the tip is you should have it) A woman took to the internet to get feedback on her letting her kid eat snacks they had not yet paid for while grocery shopping and the internet had a LOT to say about it. And so do the podcasters! We chat about the idea of even doing this as well as some hidden “grossness” within the idea of it. Speaking of gross, there is a new research team working on lab-grown chicken and it is GROSS. We share the story, and some images, of the meat and the process. It is not necessarily a new idea BUT this piece of chicken is the biggest one they have grown so far. Did I mention it looks (and sounds) gross?? All of this and more on this week’s episode!
