Stuck in Beta Podcast

Is Thanksgiving dinner better on a pizza? Greg and Josh put DiGiorno’s limited-edition Thanksgiving Pizza to the test—complete with roasted turkey, cranberry sauce, green beans, crispy onions, and a gravy drizzle on Detroit-style crust. The flavor combo impresses them more than expected, but the turkey texture? Not so much. Still, this holiday experiment earns a shockingly solid B+ and inspires ideas for making your own leftover-Thanksgiving pizza at home.

The feast continues with a review of Bell’s Red Hearted IPA, courtesy of Greg’s neighbor Bobby. With pine, citrus, and caramel notes, it scores an easy A from both hosts. From there, the debate begins: When is it socially acceptable to start playing Christmas music? And is canned cranberry jelly the superior form?

Post-Halloween decorating dilemmas lead into talk of Gremlins 3 rumors, vintage turntable restoration problems, and the mysterious reason their workshop videos blow up months after posting.

A childhood urban legend comes back to life when Greg hears a branch snap during a solo hike — and instantly remembers the terrifying tale of a crossbow-wielding boy said to roam the woods. Some fears, it seems, never fade.

This week, Greg and Josh dive into October nostalgia, swapping spooky childhood stories and reliving the thrills that once kept them awake at night. From the lost art of real trick-or-treating to today’s “Trunk or Treat” events, the hosts explore how Halloween has evolved — all while sampling Michigan’s Ore Dock Porter, New Belgium’s fiery Atomic Pumpkin ale, and the Takis Zombie chips, a strange mix of habanero heat and sour cucumber that neither host plans to revisit anytime soon.

Between laughs and goosebumps, they reflect on the simple joys of evening dog walks, a heartbreaking roadside moment, and the satisfaction of restoring a vintage Magnavox turntable cabinet.

Greg and Josh are feeling the pinch in this week’s Stuck in Beta Podcast. From $100 surprises at Lowe’s to cable companies that treat “new customers” better than loyal ones, the guys unleash some well-earned rants about the everyday expenses that drive us all crazy.

They swap customer service horror stories — including a cashier too busy texting to notice a $75 overcharge — and share a clever hack for beating Spectrum’s price games: cancel, re-sign, and save.

Halloween season brings a lighter mood (and maybe a sugar rush) with a brutally honest taste test of Angry Orchard’s Thriller Pack, featuring Sinful Apple, Berry Bewitched, and Headless Pumpkin.

Between tales of Big Sky Country adventures and unexpected turbulence, the duo samples Four Hands Brewing’s Schnucktoberfest lager — lighter, hoppier, and more divisive than they expected. Add in a debate over Everclear vs. Tropidelic concerts, some highly questionable Pringles Mingles, and a look ahead to Halloween prep and horror-movie marathons, and you’ve got an episode overflowing with fall flavor.

From gassy dogs to DIY animatronic skeletons, the guys prove once again that everyday misadventures make for the best stories.

Josh recaps his road trip through Michigan’s Upper Peninsula — including Marquette’s bike trails and a debate over whether East Coast rest areas really are better than Midwest pit stops.

On the tasting table: Short’s Brewing Bel Air Brown, a surprisingly smooth 7% brown ale with maple and whiskey notes. Add in cinnamon-glazed macadamia nuts, Halloween skeleton decor, and a sitcom showdown over 80s/90s classics, and you’ve got an episode full of flavor and fun.
