Between The States

This week on Between the States, the guys dive into the world of retail, what’s really going on behind the shelves, the counter, and the “sales” you think you’re getting.From working in hardware stores, fast food, electronics, and grocery delis, they break down the real tactics retailers use to influence how you shop… and how much you spend.They get into: Retail “secrets” like product placement, store layouts, and engineered shopping behavior  Why stores destroy unsold products instead of giving them away  The truth about “manager specials,” pre-cut foods, and expiration dates  How upselling, warranties, and fake discounts actually work  What employees really think about customers (early birds, late shoppers, and know-it-alls) Plus, they share firsthand stories from panic cleaning before guests show up, to giving away food at closing, to watching perfectly good inventory get thrown straight in the trash.If you’ve ever wondered why milk is always in the back of the store, why clearance items feel suspicious, or why everything somehow costs more than it should… this episode connects the dots.It’s retail from the inside, unfiltered, a little chaotic, and probably going to change how you shop.Send us Fan MailSupport the showEpisodes available on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@BetweenTheStates Follow us on Social Media:Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/people/Between-The-States/61574045351917/Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/betweenthestatespod/TikTok:https://www.tiktok.com/@betweenthestatesBlueSky:https://bsky.app/profile/betweenthestates.bsky.socialReddit:https://www.reddit.com/r/BetweenTheStates/Comments, questions, or suggestions can be sent to: [email protected] way to support the show: https://www.patreon.com/BetweentheStates

What do phrases like “spill the beans,” “three sheets to the wind,” and “don’t look a gift horse in the mouth” actually mean, and where did they come from?This week on Between the States, Dan, Noel, and Jared dive deep into the strange, hilarious, and sometimes confusing world of idioms. From their surprising origins in nautical terms, horse culture, and everyday life, to the rapid evolution of modern slang like “touch grass,” “no cap,” and “main character energy,” the guys break down how language evolves across generations.Along the way, expect: The real meanings behind common idioms you probably use wrong  Wild origin stories (including sailing, military, and food-related phrases)  A breakdown of how Gen Z slang compares to classic idioms  Personal stories, workplace chaos, and travel mishaps  A chaotic attempt to invent brand-new idioms live on the show Is modern slang just the next evolution of idioms? Or are we losing something as language moves online?If you’ve ever wondered why we say the things we say, or just want a funny, unfiltered conversation about language, culture, and everyday nonsense, this episode delivers.Send us Fan MailSupport the showEpisodes available on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@BetweenTheStates Follow us on Social Media:Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/people/Between-The-States/61574045351917/Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/betweenthestatespod/TikTok:https://www.tiktok.com/@betweenthestatesBlueSky:https://bsky.app/profile/betweenthestates.bsky.socialReddit:https://www.reddit.com/r/BetweenTheStates/Comments, questions, or suggestions can be sent to: [email protected] way to support the show: https://www.patreon.com/BetweentheStates

This week on Between the States, the guys take on one of the biggest questions out there:Where are all the aliens?From the Fermi Paradox to the Dark Forest Theory, the conversation dives into why, if the universe is so massive, we haven’t seen any clear evidence of extraterrestrial life.Is intelligent life just incredibly rare? Are advanced civilizations hiding on purpose? Or are we early… or completely alone?The episode spirals (in the best way) through: The most popular explanations for the Fermi Paradox Why aliens might be avoiding us entirely  The idea that civilizations destroy themselves before making contact  Whether alien technology could be completely unrecognizable to us  The possibility that we’re living in a simulation designed to look empty Along the way, the guys mix real science with wild theories, questionable logic, and the kind of debates that somehow go from astrophysics to complete nonsense in about 30 seconds.If you’ve ever wondered why we haven’t found aliens, or if they’ve already found us, this one’s for you.Send us Fan MailSupport the showEpisodes available on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@BetweenTheStates Follow us on Social Media:Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/people/Between-The-States/61574045351917/Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/betweenthestatespod/TikTok:https://www.tiktok.com/@betweenthestatesBlueSky:https://bsky.app/profile/betweenthestates.bsky.socialReddit:https://www.reddit.com/r/BetweenTheStates/Comments, questions, or suggestions can be sent to: [email protected] way to support the show: https://www.patreon.com/BetweentheStates

This week on Between the States, the guys dive headfirst into the wild world of scams, fraud, and everyday deception, from obvious cons to the blurry line between business, marketing, and straight-up scamming.What actually is a scam? Is it outright theft, misleading advertising, or just “good business”? The conversation spirals (as it should) through real-life scam stories, shady automotive practices, fake IRS calls, crypto cons, Facebook Marketplace traps, and those mall kiosks that somehow still exist.Along the way, the crew breaks down: The psychology behind scams (fear, greed, and FOMO)  How people actually fall for scams—even smart ones  The difference between scams, fraud, and “technically legal” nonsense  Hilarious personal stories of getting close to being scammed (and sometimes not realizing it) Plus, they tackle questions like: Are influencers and advertising just socially accepted scams?  Is upselling unethical… or just part of the game?  What scams would you actually run if you had to? Expect chaotic tangents, brutal honesty, and the kind of conversations that make you question whether everything is a scam… or if you’ve just been in one the whole time.Send us Fan MailSupport the showEpisodes available on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@BetweenTheStates Follow us on Social Media:Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/people/Between-The-States/61574045351917/Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/betweenthestatespod/TikTok:https://www.tiktok.com/@betweenthestatesBlueSky:https://bsky.app/profile/betweenthestates.bsky.socialReddit:https://www.reddit.com/r/BetweenTheStates/Comments, questions, or suggestions can be sent to: [email protected] way to support the show: https://www.patreon.com/BetweentheStates

Nancy joins the show as the group attempts to wrap their heads around two of the most confusing and talked-about topics today: artificial intelligence and cryptocurrency. Coming at it from the perspective of people who don’t claim to be experts, the conversation is full of honest questions, skepticism, and plenty of moments where things make less sense the more they’re explained. From wondering what AI actually can and can’t do, to trying to figure out why cryptocurrency exists at all, it’s a relatable, funny, and sometimes frustrating attempt to understand technologies that everyone talks about but few people truly understand. Just a heads up, the audio in the first 10 or so mins is a little less than perfect, someone forgot to turn on the recorder (Dan) and we had to use the back up. Send us Fan MailSupport the showEpisodes available on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@BetweenTheStates Follow us on Social Media:Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/people/Between-The-States/61574045351917/Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/betweenthestatespod/TikTok:https://www.tiktok.com/@betweenthestatesBlueSky:https://bsky.app/profile/betweenthestates.bsky.socialReddit:https://www.reddit.com/r/BetweenTheStates/Comments, questions, or suggestions can be sent to: [email protected] way to support the show: https://www.patreon.com/BetweentheStates

The guys talk about reacting first, brushing things off, and only realizing later that something actually stuck.The conversation turns toward how men often cope by minimizing, using humor, or avoiding naming what’s wrong in the moment. It’s a mix of laughing, oversharing, and reflecting after the fact, exactly how these conversations tend to happen in real life.Laugh first. Think later.
