Satisfying Static

If you’re thinking “damn, this episode sounds crisp” or “damn, this sounds good in my car” it’s because we got an upgrade! That’s right, no more listening in on a FT call, we put our big podcast pants on.   Listen in new high def about how entitled cats are, wedding planning annoyances, and student loans.   The sound is so clear, you’ll feel like you’re right in Maggie’s living room. Literally.  ...

Listen to find out how “try” turned into a conversation about charisma, Hitler, moving to Europe, and winning a million dollars at the casino. In todays slightly longer episode, Kristine and Maggie debate manipulation (jury is still out, tell us your thoughts!), which country is best suited to survive a world-wide conflict, and lottery winnings. If you love ease dropping in on strangers conversati...

In this tantalizing edition, dive into the ADHD brain and how we process (or don’t) social cues!

Find out how Liv handles living with Kristine and help Maggie find a girlfriend in this ep...

In this super special episode, we have a guest star!

Babe. Babe! BABE!! Oh, good. You’re listening. As usual, this episode is a rollercoaster of conversation and education. Does Kristine like to be called baby? Why should you never wear clothes right after buying them at the thrift store? Does Maggie know what termites look like? These are questions you’ll NEVER have answers to! I mean. Unless you listen. They talk about all that in there. Anyway, t...

It's time for another episode of Satisfying Static! The show where a random word generator runs the conversation... kinda. Usually. Okay it mostly does but Kristine and Maggie have veto powers and they've been used quite a bit.  Anyway this episode has TWO words. And one of them was not bird. Listen to find out how Kristine's brain works and how excited Maggie gets about this movie genre. You migh...

This episode takes a turn as our hosts, Kristine and Maggie, use a random word generator as a jumping off point for what ends up being quite the informational episode. Find out if Idaho is in the Midwest, what metalsmithing has to do with this, and what our hosts think about jewelry. Or don't and enjoy some easy-listening background noise as you work. Either way, we're glad you're here! Be sure to...

Who are Kristine and Maggie, really? Two random humans from the Midwest moved to the opposite ends of the country and decided to start a podcast, but why?! It definitely can't be because of the never-ending chase for dopamine. Nope. Learn more about our hosts and maybe a fun fact or two in this introductory episode of Satisfying Static. It was meant to be about the hosts and quickly derailed but w...
