Shift Happened

Friday at the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally means two things, exhaustion and big moments. Houston chats with bartenders, steak-tip masters, and even the ice guy keeping the rally cool.

Plus, interviews with the Ives Brothers of Wall of Death fame, Buffalo Chip emcee Tumbleweed, and P...

Add in Brandon Jones’ chat with Pam Tillis, a few rowdy band interviews, and a Jack Daniel’s blackberry lemonade that might be too easy to drink, and you’ve got a rall...

On day five of the 85th Sturgis Rally, Houston vanishes and Stitch spirals into full-blown Rally Delirium. Leslie considers making peace with the street sweepers, but only if they don’t blow dust on her boots.

It’s Day 5 of the Sturgis Rally and the delirium is real.

It’s day four of the 85th Sturgis Motorcycle Rally, and the Loud Shift crew is deep in the “Rally in the Alley”, where the food is tasty, the taxidermy is questionable, and the conversations get philosophical about whether rocks have feelings. We also survive a brush with the infamous street sweepers, play a round of “Five for Five” with Arcana Kings, and hear Stitch’s literally crappy start to th...
