  • Dirty Little Boys
    This episode bubbles over with nonsense—and possibly profit—as the crew dives into Sydney Sweeney’s viral soap stunt. Her limited-edition “Bathwater Bliss” body wash crashed the Doctor Squatch site, sold out in seconds, and is now popping up on eBay for hundreds of dollars a bar. We try to figure out who’s actually buying this stuff (and who should not be), and whether we can make our own version in a kiddie pool. Plus, the Hot Hunks event recap, a monopoly rule that shocked us, and one woman’s terrifyingly personalized Uber ride. Oh, and whales might be trying to talk to us now—so there’s that.

  • Your Aura is Showing
    It’s Hot Hunks weekend and the crew is fired up! With events happening at the Loud American and the Double Nickel, the team scrambles to get cards, steak tips, and stage names ready for a weekend of shirtless chaos and crowd-voted champions. Plus, we dive into the art of judging donut cream fillings on National Donut Day, and marvel at the sheer audacity of a DoorDash driver who tried to collect a tip... with a firearm. Priorities, people.

  • Bring Back the Baken
    If you've ever self-diagnosed a gut condition on TikTok while housing lasagna in the studio, this episode is your spiritual home. The gang is back with digestive dilemmas, irrational rage over a missing Baken Park sign, and deep conversations about whether AI has a soul. There’s also some proactive bladder science, broke-life habits we still cling to, and hot millionaire stats that have us wondering why we’re not one of them. Oh—and we’re giving away Jason Aldean tickets! Or we will… tomorrow. It’s chaos. It’s comfort. It’s Shift Happened.

  • Let’s Just Try Something Different

    Sometimes you just need a change. That’s how we ended up broadcasting from Studio Two — the one with questionable chairs, peeling soundproofing, and a single decorative lamp no one ever turns on. Houston insists it’s for “fresh perspective,” but the rest of the crew isn’t convinced. Tension brews, microphones wobble, and Stitch’s allergies rage against the machine (and the room).


    Somehow, we still find time to debate Bigfoot in a canoe, the sounds kids today will never hear, and whether Arizona is a real place or just a dry fever dream. It’s a new setting, same beautiful mess.

  • Big Leslie

    Stitch may be running on zero sleep and Benadryl fumes, but that doesn’t stop the gang from bringing the chaos on this episode of Shift Happened! We start off with a plea for sympathy and end somewhere between punk rock Yorkies in spike vests, egg-snobbery on National Egg Day, and the age-old philosophical showdown: chicken or egg? You’ll also hear why singing to babies might be the parenting hack of the year, which gas station trips are not worth it, and the story of a 15-year-old who tried to save a dog from a well but maybe needed saving himself. Plus, Hot Hunks is heating up Sturgis this weekend—and we’ve got all the steamy ticket info.


    It’s weird, it’s heartfelt, it’s full of green eggs—and not a single ham in sight.

  • Why Are Nosferatu’s Butt Cheeks So Small?
    This episode of Shift Happened brings you sunburned scalps, a DIY dog cone made from pool noodles, and a hilarious deep dive into vampire lore as the crew debates whether Nosferatu is just Dracula with uglier teeth. They swap stories about how many pull-ups they could manage if snakes were involved, share surprising research on whether close friends or romantic partners are better for your mental health, and wrap it all up with details on this weekend’s Hot Hunks contest where Post Malone and Jelly Roll tickets are up for grabs. Buckle up for laughs, weird facts, and the kind of chaotic fun only the Second Shift crew can deliver.

  • Sydney Sweeney’s Soap
    The full crew is finally in the studio, and you know that means chaos! On today’s episode of Shift Happened, Leslie shares her Minneapolis adventures, Stitch brags about surviving sleepless nights in the newborn trenches, and the team debates whether a real-life Jurassic Park would be worth the risk. They dive into the best gas station snacks, the Hot Hunks Friday showdown at the Valley Sports Bar, and the jaw-dropping new Sydney Sweeney soap collab. Plus, hear how a “dead” hiker wasn’t actually dead, just really, really high. Buckle up because it’s a wild ride.

  • The Prince of Rapid City
    It’s a fun-packed episode of Shift Happened! Stitch is in full new-dad mode, juggling baby life and FOMO while insisting Rapid City needs to hear his voice. Houston stirs up Marvel debates and drops trivia bombs, while MC Kayla laughs through it all — and somehow keeps them on track. Plus, the crew gears up for the Hot Hunks contest at Valley Sports Bar, complete with steak tips, TikToks, and a shot at winning concert tickets. It’s the perfect mix of laughs, chaos, and local buzz!
