    Disappearing Scientists, Alien.gov & Hamp’s Pod‑From‑Hell Story

    Send us Fan Mail   Hamp’s Back (Again), Furniture Fiascos & UFO Files Vanish?!  This week on The Stick Lounge Podcast, Hampton is officially back in the studio — fresh out of yet another surgery. This time the doctors sliced him open from elbow to hand trying to fix the nerve damage caused by the last surgery. Poor Hamp. We’re rooting for you, brother.  But he’s here, he’s healing, and he’s catching us up on life in Idaho… which is already giving him enough material for a whole season.  We’re also joined by Cassie, the legendary bartender from Creole Soul, who jumps right into the madness with us.  🔥 Hot as Fish Grease  Hamp unloads a double‑header of frustration:  •          The moving company finally drops off his pod… except the furniture is jammed against the door so he can’t even open it.  •          Then the new bed gets delivered — but the company shows up with the wrong paperwork and tries to haul away an old mattress instead of assembling the new one.  Hamp swears he’ll build the bed himself… unless they want to deal with his Rottweiler, Star.  Why does the universe keep picking fights with this man?  👽 Paranormal Corner  Joe takes us down a rabbit hole of very strange happenings:  •          The Black Vault gets hacked and wiped, taking countless UFO files with it.  •          The U.S. government quietly acquires alien.gov and aliens.gov.  •          And the weirdest part — a disturbing pattern of scientists, military personnel, and space‑tech insiders going missing or turning up dead.  Coincidence? Pattern? Something bigger? The guys dig in.  A recovering co‑host, furniture disasters, government weirdness, and UFO intrigue — this episode has everything that makes Stick Lounge… Stick Lounge.  Don’t miss it.    Also make sure to check out Stick Lounge on all our platforms!  https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61571618356907  https://www.instagram.com/stick_lounge/  https://www.tiktok.com/@stick.lounge.podc?lang=en  https://www.youtube.com/@Stick_Lounge_Podcast  https://open.spotify.com/show/5zUUm9kVmFZ4dZo9WcMoMb  https://www.iheart.com/podcast/1333-stick-lounge-podcast-259384024/  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/stick-lounge-podcast/id1816078073  https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/457f627a-c8c8-4f4b-85b0-0b3af62d9c1f/stick-lounge-podcast  #SmallBusiness #Local #DesMoinesWA #Podcast #StickLounge #Restaruant #Bar #EventSpace #Interview #Comedy #NonProfit #CreoleSoul #DatSoulTruck #videogames #waterlandarcade #arcade #waterlandcity #localpolitics #ufo #uap #mauryisland #sneakerball #crooner #franksinatra #barista #coffee #coffeeroaster #pride #waterlandpride #desmoinespride #therapy #mental health #beutypageant #dance #endometriosis #localmusic #realestate #winetasting #destinationdesmoines #johnlscott #jimmyhendrix #rockandroll #randyhansen #ghost #alien #gray #stonehousewednesday #eternalmotionpictures #indifilm #shortfilms #scifi #parasense #ghosts #haunted #knifesharpening #AFHSalon #AnnieFisher #Beauty #

    Addiction, Disorder, and the System

    Send us Fan Mail Positive Awakenings Series — Featuring Nurse Practitioner Wendell Sylvester This week, Joe and Counselor Dekel Zuhri return with another powerful installment of the Positive Awakenings Series — and their guest, Wendell Sylvester, brings a lifetime of experience, insight, and honesty to the table. A seasoned Nurse Practitioner with years in the medical field, Wendell opens up about the moments that shaped him, the challenges he’s faced, and the realities he’s witnessed firsthand. What begins as a conversation about Wendell’s upbringing quickly expands into a wide‑ranging, eye‑opening discussion. Wendell shares the story of discovering he had narcolepsy, the obstacles that came with it, and the resilience required to navigate a condition that’s often misunderstood. From there, the conversation moves into the state of the unhoused community — and Wendell offers a candid look at how the system struggles to support people with complex medical or mental health needs. The episode also dives into the war on drugs, how addiction has shifted into recognized disorders, and the long‑term impact of those changes. Wendell reflects on the AIDS epidemic, the evolution of treatment, and how far medical science has come in saving lives and reducing stigma. Packed with lived experience, professional insight, and meaningful perspective, this interview moves in many directions — each one offering something valuable. Don’t miss this powerful Positive Awakenings Series episode with Wendell Sylvester. It’s informative, heartfelt, and one of the most dynamic conversations yet.

    From Tailgates to Alternate Realities

    Send us Fan Mail   Joe and Hamp dive into Hamp’s big move to Nampa, Idaho—from adjusting to small‑town living to realizing just how expensive it is to furnish an entire house after buying one. New appliances, new furniture, new everything… Hamp’s wallet is already begging for mercy.  Then we slide into Hot as Fish Grease, where Hamp vents about Idaho drivers tailgating him like he stole something. His solution? Stick his Black arm out the window—something that instantly made everyone back off, considering there aren’t many Black folks in his new town. Problem solved, Idaho‑style.  After that, Joe takes us into a mind‑bending Paranormal Corner, exploring Simulation Theory. Are we actually living in base reality, or is this whole thing a high‑resolution illusion? The guys break down why several experts believe we might be living inside a simulation—and what that means for everything we think we know.  Another hilarious, chaotic, and thought‑provoking episode you won’t want to miss. Welcome to life in Nampa, welcome to the simulation, and welcome back to The Stick Lounge.  Don’t miss it!    Also make sure to check out Stick Lounge on all our platforms!  https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61571618356907  https://www.instagram.com/stick_lounge/  https://www.tiktok.com/@stick.lounge.podc?lang=en  https://www.youtube.com/@Stick_Lounge_Podcast  https://open.spotify.com/show/5zUUm9kVmFZ4dZo9WcMoMb  https://www.iheart.com/podcast/1333-stick-lounge-podcast-259384024/  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/stick-lounge-podcast/id1816078073  https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/457f627a-c8c8-4f4b-85b0-0b3af62d9c1f/stick-lounge-podcast  #SmallBusiness #Local #DesMoinesWA #Podcast #StickLounge #Restaruant #Bar #EventSpace #Interview #Comedy #NonProfit #CreoleSoul #DatSoulTruck #videogames #waterlandarcade #arcade #waterlandcity #localpolitics #ufo #uap #mauryisland #sneakerball #crooner #franksinatra #barista #coffee #coffeeroaster #pride #waterlandpride #desmoinespride #therapy #mental health #beutypageant #dance #endometriosis #localmusic #realestate #winetasting #destinationdesmoines #johnlscott #jimmyhendrix #rockandroll #randyhansen #ghost #alien #gray #stonehousewednesday #eternalmotionpictures #indifilm #shortfilms #scifi #parasense #ghosts #haunted #knifesharpening #AFHSalon #AnnieFisher #Beauty #CityManager #bigfoot #sasquatch #sierrasounds #Nazcalines #Tridactylmummies #CERN #MandelaEfeect #ProjectAnchor #StringTheory

    Alien Disclosure: The Truth Is Out!

    Send us Fan Mail This week on the Stick Lounge Podcast, Joe and Hamp kick things off with a wild recap of a party at Hamp’s bar, Creole Soul — and let’s just say the age‑old phrase “the customer is always right” does not survive this episode. In fact, sometimes… they’re straight‑up assholes. The guys have stories. Then it’s time for Hot as Fish Grease, where Hamp is furious — but this time, the smoke is aimed at himself. Why? Because he managed to soak his entire fully‑clothed body with freezing water while trying to figure out how to work a shower. Yes, he beefed it. Yes, Joe laughs at him. Yes, it’s glorious. From there, Joe drags everyone into a deep, mind‑bending Paranormal Corner. Two U.S. presidents have now openly acknowledged that aliens are real… so what does that mean? Are we inching toward full disclosure? Are extraterrestrials already walking among us? And one video the crew reviews might just make you believe they are. Bar chaos, self‑inflicted disasters, and presidential-level alien revelations — this episode is loaded. Don’t miss it!

    Positive Awakenings — Episode 2, Mwiche Lupambo

    Send us Fan Mail   Joe and Counselor Dekel Zuhri return with another powerful installment of the Positive Awakening Series, and this week they’re joined by Marriage and Family Therapist Mwiche Lupambo for a conversation that’s as honest as it is inspiring.  Mwiche shares her remarkable journey from Zambia to the United States — a path filled with challenges, cultural adjustments, and the determination to pursue her calling in mental health. She opens up about the moment she realized she was experiencing depression herself, and how, in her community, mental health wasn’t something people talked about, let alone sought help for. Her story sheds light on the cultural barriers many still face when it comes to acknowledging emotional struggles.  Together, the trio digs into the realities immigrants encounter today, the pressure to adapt while holding onto identity, and the ways people are coping with these layered experiences. From stigma to resilience, cultural silence to personal awakening, this episode explores the many dimensions of mental health through Mwiche’s lived experience and professional insight.  Make sure you check out Mwiche’s links below!  https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/therapists/mwiche-lupambo-seatac-wa/480296  Also make sure you check out Dekel’s Link below.  https://www.positiveawakeningspllc.com/  https://www.instagram.com/growth.positiveawakenings/  Also make sure to check out Stick Lounge on all our platforms!  https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61571618356907  https://www.instagram.com/stick_lounge/  https://www.tiktok.com/@stick.lounge.podc?lang=en  https://www.youtube.com/@Stick_Lounge_Podcast  https://open.spotify.com/show/5zUUm9kVmFZ4dZo9WcMoMb  https://www.iheart.com/podcast/1333-stick-lounge-podcast-259384024/  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/stick-lounge-podcast/id1816078073  https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/457f627a-c8c8-4f4b-85b0-0b3af62d9c1f/stick-lounge-podcast  #SmallBusiness #Local #DesMoinesWA #Podcast #StickLounge #Restaruant #Bar #EventSpace #Interview #Comedy #NonProfit #CreoleSoul #DatSoulTruck #videogames #waterlandarcade #arcade #waterlandcity #localpolitics #ufo #uap #mauryisland #sneakerball #crooner #franksinatra #barista #coffee #coffeeroaster #pride #waterlandpride #desmoinespride #therapy #mental health #beutypageant #dance #endometriosis #localmusic #realestate #winetasting #destinationdesmoines #johnlscott #jimmyhendrix #rockandroll #randyhansen #ghost #alien #gray #stonehousewednesday #eternalmotionpictures #indifilm #shortfilms #scifi #parasense #ghosts #haunted #knifesharpening #AFHSalon #AnnieFisher #Beauty #CityManager #bigfoot #sasquatch #sierrasounds #Nazcalines #Tridactylmummies #CERN #MandelaEfeect #ProjectAnchor #StringTheory

    Cut Off by Grandma, Chased by Aliens

    Send us Fan Mail   This week on the Stick Lounge Podcast, Joe and Hamp are broadcasting from… Hamp’s temporary residence. Yes, the Stick Lounge is Hamp’s in‑between‑homes crash pad, and Joe wastes no time joking about “breaking in” to record. Don’t worry — it’s only until Hamp closes on that mysterious new house in Idaho.  Then the guys dive into the Seattle Seahawks’ massive Super Bowl win, and the big news: they’re working on getting a team member on the show. Manifesting that Stick Lounge x Seahawks crossover.  In Hot as Fish Grease, Hamp recounts how an elderly lady cut off his giant F350, then whipped out her phone to take pictures of him like he was Bigfoot behind the wheel. Meanwhile, he’s still trying to figure out who keeps calling the cops about his parking situation.  Finally, Joe opens the portal to Paranormal Corner, taking Hamp into the wild story of the Varginha, Brazil incident — an alleged alien crash, strange beings roaming the streets, and one of the most bizarre cases in UFO history.  A temporary studio, football triumphs, road‑rage mysteries, and extraterrestrial mayhem — this episode has it all.  Don’t miss it!    Also make sure to check out Stick Lounge on all of our platforms!  https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61571618356907  https://www.instagram.com/stick_lounge/  https://www.tiktok.com/@stick.lounge.podc?lang=en  https://www.youtube.com/@Stick_Lounge_Podcast  https://open.spotify.com/show/5zUUm9kVmFZ4dZo9WcMoMb  https://www.iheart.com/podcast/1333-stick-lounge-podcast-259384024/  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/stick-lounge-podcast/id1816078073  https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/457f627a-c8c8-4f4b-85b0-0b3af62d9c1f/stick-lounge-podcast  #SmallBusiness #Local #DesMoinesWA #Podcast #StickLounge #Restaruant #Bar #EventSpace #Interview #Comedy #NonProfit #CreoleSoul #DatSoulTruck #videogames #waterlandarcade #arcade #waterlandcity #localpolitics #ufo #uap #mauryisland #sneakerball #crooner #franksinatra #barista #coffee #coffeeroaster #pride #waterlandpride #desmoinespride #therapy #mental health #beutypageant #dance #endometriosis #localmusic #realestate #winetasting #destinationdesmoines #johnlscott #jimmyhendrix #rockandroll #randyhansen #ghost #alien #gray #stonehousewednesday #eternalmotionpictures #indifilm #shortfilms #scifi #parasense #ghosts #haunted #knifesharpening #AFHSalon #AnnieFisher #Beauty #CityManager #bigfoot #sasquatch #sierrasounds #Nazcalines #Tridactylmummies #CERN #MandelaEfeect #ProjectAnchor #StringTheory

    When the System Fails Women: The Endo Crisis

    Send us Fan Mail This week, the Stick Lounge crew sits down with two incredible Endo Warriors, Angela and Michelle — women who have been battling endometriosis for most of their lives. After years of being dismissed by doctors, enduring multiple surgeries, and fighting through a world full of disbelief, they’re stepping up to share their stories with honesty, strength, and purpose. Their message to young girls and women everywhere is simple but powerful: “You’re not alone. This is real.” We also break down Washington State Senate Bill 5985 and why awareness, education, and real solutions are urgently needed. With 1 in 10 women affected by endometriosis, this conversation isn’t just important — it’s overdue. A raw, eye‑opening, and empowering episode you won’t want to miss.
