Welcome to Dirt Nap City, the podcast where we roll out the welcome mat, or in this case, the shag carpet. Join your hosts, Alex and Kelly as we delve into the world of one of the most divisive home decor choices of all time: shag carpeting.

Is it a cozy, retro haven or a dust-collecting monster? We’re here to explore both sides of the shag carpet spectrum. From its heyday in the 70s to its questionable resurgence in modern homes, we'll cover it all. We'll discuss the pros and cons, share listener stories, and maybe even attempt to build a fort out of shag carpet in the studio (don’t worry, we’ll clean up after ourselves).

On Dirt Nap City, we'll tackle serious topics like vacuum cleaner technology, the psychology of texture, and the environmental impact of synthetic fibers. But don’t worry, we’ll also have plenty of laughs as we share our personal shag carpet horror stories and discuss the finer points of lint-roller etiquette.

Whether you’re a die-hard shag enthusiast or someone who would rather walk barefoot on a gravel driveway, there’s something for everyone on Dirt Nap City. So, grab your favorite pair of fuzzy slippers and join us for a deep dive into the world of shag carpeting.

Drop us a quick text and we’ll reply in the next episode!
