    Hamp Snaps, Scientists Vanish & Joe Drops NASA Receipts!

    Send us Fan Mail Creole Soul Chaos, Family Scams & “Is Space Even Real?” — Stick Lounge Gets Spicy   This week on The Stick Lounge Podcast, Joe, Hamp, and Cassie dive into one of the wildest mixes of real‑life drama and cosmic confusion yet.   The crew kicks things off with an update from Creole Soul, where business is still booming and the pressure is still on. Hampton and Cassie break down how they’re keeping up with the nonstop demand, the long hours, and the Louisiana‑level chaos that never seems to slow down.   Then Hot as Fish Grease gets personal. Hamp reveals he’s dealing with a brand‑new scam attempt — but this time it’s coming from his own family. He doesn’t hold back. He tells them exactly how he feels, exactly where they can “go,” and exactly why he’s done with the nonsense. It’s raw, heated, and classic Hamp.   From there, Joe slams the door open to Paranormal Corner, and things get weird fast. The team digs into the ongoing mystery of the disappearing scientists, a story that keeps getting stranger by the week. Then the debate erupts: Is space real? Did we actually go?   Cassie says absolutely. Hamp says absolutely not. Joe brings receipts — NASA history, moon landing details, and the latest on the Artemis II mission — and suddenly everyone’s rethinking everything.   If you love paranormal theories, family drama, restaurant chaos, and heated debates about reality itself, this episode is for you.   Don’t miss it.

    Catfish Goes Viral, Idaho Goes Wrong & Politicians Talk Aliens

    Send us Fan Mail Louisiana Catfish Fame, Idaho Furniture Fails & Alien Breeding Programs?! This week on The Stick Lounge Podcast, Joe and Hamp are flying solo — and somehow that makes the chaos even better. First up, Creole Soul is officially going viral. Hamp’s Louisiana catfish has blown up on social media, and people are driving in from everywhere just to get a plate. Business is booming, the bar is packed, and Hamp is finally getting the culinary respect he deserves. Then it’s time for Hot as Fish Grease, and of course… we’re back in Idaho. If it’s not the mattress guy or the moving guy messing with Hamp, it’s the furniture guy. They lied about delivery, the furniture never showed, and Hamp is heated. This Idaho move is turning into a full‑time comedy series. After that, Joe drags us into Paranormal Corner, where politicians are suddenly talking UFOs, UAPs, aliens — and now a supposed breeding program. Things are getting weird out there, and the guys break down the madness. Finally, the episode takes a chilling turn as they dive into the mystery of Dyatlov Pass — nine hikers found dead under bizarre, unexplained circumstances in Siberia. Was it aliens, Sasquatch, the government, or something even stranger? Catfish fame, Idaho rage, alien conspiracies, and one of the wildest mysteries in history — this episode has everything.

    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 #

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.

    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!
