Welcome to episode 135 of the Still Spinning Podcast, the last one of February!

Dan has a lot of travel coming up for his job and so the topic of hotel stays is high on his list. There are a few things that both he and experts have noticed. First off, the days of the cheap hotel room are gone. No longer are you likely to find a $125 room in a nice hotel. Second, say goodbye to the free breakfast! There are some reasons behind that, and the team discusses them during the podcast.

There have been a few recent studies on workplace burnout and apparently the act of hiding your true feelings and/or “reacting” in a work moment the way you feel are expected to react is causing folks to lose steam by the end of the week. Is that amount of “acting” sustainable? We discuss.

I know Dan went on a late tangent but even I cannot remember what it is about so you will have to tune in to find out!

Welcome to episode 134 of the Still Spinning Podcast. This week is all about the Olympics! The winter olympics are in full swing and with it, lots of news. Close to home, Dan has some outdoor lighting that he has set to red, white and blue to honor the athletes competing in Italy. Well, his neighbors have started to copy him so he fills us in on the neighborhood lighting.

Dan gives a wonderful recommendation for women’s hockey happening at the Olympics. The USA team is doing well and he is very impressed. The Canadians appear to be cheating at curling and we hear more on the official rules and what is being done illegally at the games. Some men were allegedly injecting their neither regions with acid to inflate them in order to add more fabric to their suits for the ski jumping. Olympic village ran out of condoms early on and we discussed the perfect mix of things happening there to explain why this happened. So much happening!!

We will NOT have a live recording next week as Dan is traveling but we will drop the regular episode on Wednesday. Spinners, bonus content will be coming your way on Friday!

Hello and welcome to episode 133 of the Still Spinning Podcast. We kick off today with a story from Dan about a discussion he had with folks of varying ages and his shock that none of them knew we were planning another trip to the moon. Did you know? Be honest…

The SuperBowl happened on Sunday so we talk about some highlights! Specifically commercial highlights because honestly, who watches for the football? There seemed to be a real potty-mouth trend this year and at least one of the hosts was loving that.

How much should the media share about the Olympics before people have had a chance to watch? This is always a challenge when they happen 7 hours ahead of us in the Midwest but this year Nicole was particularly mad about a massive spoiler that was pushed out to her email before she even woke up.

Southwest has gotten rid of their “free for all” seating but of course people have something else to be mad about in their new process. Dan shares some of the changes that have happened and the new rules that the flight attendants are really sticking to and of course, people are mad.

You can watch the live taping next Monday at 7 PM on Facebook, YouTube or Instagram OR wait until the official podcast release on Wednesday morning.
