Slip It In

Questions or Comments: Slip It In Here!

Michigan and Michigan State are taking their legendary rivalry somewhere unexpected: the bathroom. Matty, Megan and JJ break down the Great Michigan Piss-Off, a real competition collecting football fans' urine to create fertilizer. From tailgate yurts and standing urinals to the unofficial Golden Shower trophy, the hosts debate who gets to participate, what could possibly go wrong and whether there can be two winners.

Then there's the British police helicopter that traced a remarkably penis-shaped flight path across the sky. Police insist it was accidental, but Matty isn't buying it. The conversation takes another bizarre turn when the hosts recount their night at The Moth storytelling competition in Detroit, where their friend Molly takes first place and a mysterious story about digging up a best friend's skull briefly has everyone fearing there's a murderer in the room.

The episode also gets into the phrase "asshole casserole," the increasingly unavoidable "Let's go!" celebration, portable restroom upgrades and the frustrations of subscription-only cookie recipes. Plus, the holidays arrive early with Starbucks' new seasonal cups, the Bearista craze, Mariah Carey's annual Christmas takeover and a newfound appreciation for Trader Joe's Advent calendars.

In this episode:

• Michigan vs. Michigan State's Great Michigan Piss-Off
• Turning human urine into fertilizer with university research
• Tailgate yurts, standing urinals and the Golden Shower trophy

Slip It In is the unhinged brunch conversation you can’t help overhear. Longtime friends Matty, Megan and JJ take on the kinds of hot topics that always find their way to the table, including pop culture, internet trends, products, dating and relationships, and the everyday chaos we probably should keep to ourselves, but don’t.

75 episodes deep, and apparently we're still getting ourselves into some pretty messy situations.

Matty's $700 plumbing emergency kicks things off with a lesson in dirty pipes, DUDE Wipes, double flushing, and why his plumber thinks everyone should be using more water. Naturally, a conversation about household maintenance takes a few unexpected turns.

Then we're confronting our irrational fears. JJ has childhood trauma involving clowns, Matty worries that spending too long in someone's bathroom will make people think he's pooping (and he's genuinely terrified of bugs crawling into his ears), and Megan fears getting trapped in a car sinking underwater. Which fear is the most reasonable? You decide.

Dating gets complicated when Matty asks Megan and JJ for advice about a potential Hinge date. The guy seems promising, lives in Detroit's Palmer Woods neighborhood, and suggests coffee. There's just one detail missing from his dating profile that has Matty second-guessing everything.

We also reveal the winner of Oreo's 2026 Twist, Lick & Vote flavor contest, revisit some wonderfully mangled expressions, and celebrate the art of a good double entend.

Slip It Ins & Pull It Outs bring even more to the table: aggressive braking, election-season advertising overload, Werther's Original Pumpkin Spice Soft Caramels, and a bizarre incident involving a box of cockroaches at a Toledo public library. Plus, an unexpected conversation about what really happens in library bathrooms.

Seventy-five episodes, countless questionable conversations, and we're still finding new ways to slip it in.

Should bringing an iced latte to a job interview really matter? One recruiter's advice sparked an international debate, and now she's joining us to tell her side of the story.

Caitlin Wehniainen, better known online as Caitlin Recruiter and president of On Cue Hire, joins Matty, Megan and JJ to talk about the viral Gen Z iced coffee controversy. She shares what she actually meant, what it felt like watching the conversation take on a life of its own, and why first impressions aren't always as straightforward as people think.

We also get into the realities of job hunting and hiring: what to wear to an interview, whether tattoos matter, how recruiters really find candidates, the role of AI, referrals that go wrong, and applicants who send someone else to their interviews. Yes, that apparently happens.

Then we put Caitlin in the hot seat for Hired or Fired, where job interviews take a back seat to life's other questionable decisions. Arriving 45 minutes early to a party? Bringing a coupon on a first date? Calling someone immediately after they text you? Caitlin weighs in.

Plus, Caitlin reveals her top three favorite nuts and joins our Slip It Ins and Pull It Outs. She shares why she loves helping people land jobs that genuinely improve their lives, and why hiring processes that drag on for too many rounds drive her crazy. We're also talking Michigan fall colors, panel interviews, good work finally getting recognized, and people carrying around ridiculously oversized water jugs.

We've been trying to get Peter on the podcast for months, and now that he's finally here, there's plenty to discuss. Peter, one half of Murray & Peter Present, joins Matty, Megan and JJ for a conversation about drag, theater, decades of friendship and some memorable nights out.

First, Peter takes on our This or That speed round before sharing the story behind two touring productions: Golden Girls: The Laughs Continue and A Drag Queen Christmas. From the Golden Girls navigating modern life, including Blanche and Rose launching a sex app for seniors, to the logistics of touring with RuPaul's Drag Race royalty, Peter gives us a look behind the curtain. We talk Nina West, Crystal Methyd, the 39-city Christmas tour and how a production that started with early performances in Detroit grew into a touring success.

Then come the stories only longtime friends can tell. JJ sleeping on a church lawn, the summer of Lime-A-Ritas, a memorable Fritos incident, someone being left in a sweltering car and a sake-fueled happy hour that ended with Peter climbing through his kitchen window and landing in a crockpot. We also learn the meaning of Shadoobs, a word that has become part of this group's vocabulary.

The conversation continues with Finland's reputation for happiness, Waymo's arrival in Detroit and an espresso martini experiment involving soy sauce.

Slip It Ins and Pull It Outs bring Lorne Michaels, the loss of a favorite Ferndale happy hour, cowboy hats, chicken feet as dog treats, God of War Ragnarök, face masks, a little girls-and-gays gossip and a frustrating encounter with a highway merging lane.

Questions or Comments: Slip It In Here!

The Slippers have spoken, and Megan is setting the record straight. After a Céline Dion fan challenges her comments about René Angélil, she revisits what she said and gives credit where it's due. Then Matty and JJ revisit their Detroit Free Press Half Marathon experience, where one wanted selfies along the way and the other just wanted to cross the finish line. That leads to Denver's outrageous Taco Bell 50K, a 31-mile ultramarathon requiring runners to stop at 10 Taco Bells, eat along the way and somehow survive the consequences.

Are advent calendars a vibe or boomer? With brands offering everything from chocolates and beauty products to dog treats and $350 jewelry calendars, the countdown to Christmas has become serious business. The conversation also turns to Trader Joe's latest beauty find, Michelin-starred chefs who love Taco Bell and a Real Housewives star whose wedding menu couldn't quite deliver her favorite fast food.

Brandi Glanville's ongoing facial health concerns and Kyle Richards' public $500 GoFundMe donation spark a bigger question: Should someone's generosity be judged by how much they can afford to give? Then Slip It Ins and Pull It Outs bring Alanis Morissette's Q&Q philosophy, Matty's experience with Raynaud's phenomenon, an unexpected gym compliment, the debate over wearing makeup to work out and Megan's missed opportunity to cash in on Denny's limited-edition Sticky Kicks.

In this episode:

• Céline Dion, René Angélil and a listener correction
• Matty and JJ's Detroit Free Press Half Marathon memories
• Denver's 31-mile Taco Bell 50K ultramarathon

Would you bring Dunkin’ into a job interview? Matty, Megan and JJ get into the debate over whether walking into an interview with a coffee feels confident and casual or just a little too comfortable. As people who regularly interview candidates themselves, they compare where they’d draw the line and why the person sitting across the table may be the only opinion that really matters.
 
Then Matty tells the story of ordering a smash burger at The Dirty Shame, cutting it in half and getting called a “wuss” by the waitress in front of his family. Was she out of line, or is a big, messy burger meant to be picked up with both hands and eaten exactly as it comes? Megan and JJ weigh in, and the Slippers are officially being asked to settle the debate.
 
Megan is also back from Portugal with what she calls one of her best purchases of the year: Meta glasses. She breaks down how she used them for directions, photos, video, audio and identifying what she was looking at while traveling. Plus, Slip-Ups make their debut with corrections on garbage disposals and the OREO Twist, Lick, Vote lineup before Slip It Ins and Pull It Outs bring daily messages from family, crying on social media, concerts, The Moth, another Matty car accident, Howard Stern, Jeff Lewis and a marble-floor mystery.

Questions or Comments: Slip It In Here!

Are you the type of person who snoops in someone’s medicine cabinet, eats a few grapes before checking out at the grocery store or refuses to make two trips from the car with your bags? Matty, Megan and JJ start comparing the oddly specific habits that reveal exactly what type of person they are, from parking between the lines and checking restaurant menus ahead of time to sleeping with one foot outside the covers.  

Then things get more personal. Matty looks back at the era of greeting gay friends with a kiss on the lips, JJ owns his concert woo-hooing and Megan gets into her shower routine, including the surprisingly divisive question of whether you actually wash your legs. There’s also chronic lateness, Googling someone before a first date, brushing your teeth in the shower and plenty more “Are You That Type of Person?” behavior to compare.  

Kiehl’s Facial Fuel gets the product spotlight, along with a Nordstrom Rack pricing debate that turns into a bigger conversation about being that type of customer. Then Slip It Ins and Pull It Outs bring G.H. Bass customer service, the rising cost of dry cleaning, gloves for cleaning and food prep, all the hugging on Big Brother, freezing stinky food until trash day and the return of Matty’s heart-finger grievance.  

In this episode:

• Medicine cabinet snooping
• Grocery-store grape grazing
• Getting every grocery bag inside in one trip
• Checking restaurant menus before you arrive
• Sleeping with one foot outside the covers
• Keeping socks after your toe breaks through
• Googling someone before a first date
• Kissing friends on the lips
• Being chronically late
• Woo-hooing at concerts
• Showering every day or not
• The great leg-washing debate
• Kiehl’s Facial Fuel
• G.H. Bass customer service
• Dry-cleaning prices
• Gloves for cleaning and food prep
• Big Brother’s constant hugging
• Freezing stinky food until trash day
• Matty vs. heart fingers

Celine Dion is back in the spotlight, and Matty, Megan and JJ are fully invested. They get into her return to performing, the viral moments with fans outside her Paris hotel, her experience with stiff-person syndrome and why seeing more of Celine’s personality has changed the way they look at her. Plus, apparently dresses over jeans are trying to make a comeback too.

Then things move from emotional to completely unhinged. An American Airlines passenger ends up restrained with duct tape and zip ties after his flight is diverted to Baltimore, prompting an important question: who are you clocking as your potential backup the second you get on a plane? And in one of the stranger stories to resurface online, Beyhan Mutlu goes missing in Turkey, joins the search party looking for him and eventually realizes he is the person everyone has been trying to find.

The crew also finally gets their hands on Chicken & Waffles OREOs and compares them with Apple Pie à la Mode and Deep Fried. Then Slip It Ins and Pull It Outs bring intentional crying days, relentless spam texts, an unexpectedly great Target experience, Jeep duck lights, noisy trampolines and Anne Lamott’s reminder that life works because not everyone in your tribe is nuts on the same day.

•  Celine Dion’s return to performing 
•  Her viral fan moments in Paris

DollyGate gets its closing statement when Melissa responds directly to Matty, Megan, JJ and the Slippers, complete with an apology, a defense of her childhood memory and a very clear ranking of which host showed her the most support. With Tammy Wynette officially replacing Dolly Parton in the memory bank, the case is declared closed.

Then it’s Detroit’s turn. Matty, Megan and JJ recap spending nearly nine hours at Cosm Detroit watching the US Open, from the 87-foot immersive dome and celebrity-suite surveillance to seat hopping, new staff friends and Megan’s very real disappointment over the missing Honey Deuce. What started as one tennis match quickly became a glimpse at a completely different way to watch live sports.

Fall trend talk brings men’s workwear, pink, neon and tote bags to the brunch table, followed by Snickers Banana Nut Bread, monster OREOs and Matty’s OWYN protein shake recommendation, which works considerably better when the cap is still on before shaking vigorously. Slip It Ins and Pull It Outs cover sporty gays, JJ correcting his own “Bass Persuades” pronunciation, Megan’s wait for the foldable iPhone, the 9/11 Memorial’s white birthday roses and Matty correcting his tropical-storm correction.

In this episode:

•  Melissa’s official DollyGate statement 
•  Nine hours at Cosm Detroit for the US Open 
•  The Cosm dome, celebrity suites and the missing Honey Deuce 
•  Men’s workwear, pink, neon and tote-bag trends

•  Megan waits for the foldable iPhone 
•  Mikey Flowers and the 9/11 birthday roses 
•  One more tropical-storm-name correction

Questions or Comments: Slip It In Here!

DollyGate is officially open for business. After Melissa casually revealed last episode that she met Dolly Parton backstage at the Lowell Showboat as a child, Matty did what any reasonable friend would do: checked with his dad, his sister and the local newspaper archives. The receipts point somewhere very different, with Tammy Wynette emerging as the likely woman behind Melissa’s decades-long Dolly memory.

From there, the brunch table moves into the Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip 20th anniversary, the very subjective battle for Song of the Summer, Miley’s new one-name era and the Bravo-meets-MTV relationship nobody had on their bingo card: Phaedra Parks and her “Castle Daddy,” CT Tamburello. There’s also a surprisingly serious discussion about whether “my fella” is an acceptable grown-up alternative to boyfriend.

Megan brings a considerably cheaper alternative to the Lululemon habit with CRZ Yoga, then Slip It Ins and Pull It Outs deliver a tennis ball that grunts when you hit it, people who waste everyone’s green light while staring at their phones, FX’s Adults, inherited road rage and some concern for Lionel Richie after his recent hospitalization.

In this episode:

• DollyGate and the Lowell Showboat mystery
• A correction to the tropical-storm-name conversation
• The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip: Roaring 20th
• Spotify, TikTok and the very debatable Song of the Summer
• Miley and “Bass Persuades”
• Phaedra Parks and CT Tamburello’s “Castle Daddy” crossover
• Andy Cohen and the case for calling someone “my fella”
• CRZ Yoga and the hunt for affordable athletic wear
• The viral tennis ball that grunts when you hit it
• Green-light phone offenders, road rage and becoming your father
• FX’s Adults
• Lionel Richie
