No laws with Claws! Emma, Rob, and Siobhan join Matt on an audacious adventure of sipping and munching through combinations of White Claw flavors and budget snacks. We each bring our preferred White Claw flavor to the table but the real fun begins as we pair them with unexpected gas station treats. 

Our episode wraps up with a delightful homemade chicken dip and a debate about its qualifications in this competition. Whether you're a foodie, a drinks enthusiast, or someone who enjoys hearty conversations sprinkled with laughter, you're in for a ride. So come on, let's drink this unique part of the universe together!

Ever wondered what it would be like to have a Vampiro in your living room, sharing relationship advice? Well, you're in for a treat as we welcome back David "Vampiro" from the nether regions for a lively chat about the Vampiro Diaries. In a fitting tribute to the iconic Bob Barker, we reminisce about his enduring influence, and take a moment to bemoan the state of drive-through orders. Because, really, should it be this hard to get a quick meal without a side of special instructions?

Shifting gears, we discuss the trials and tribulations of snack availability. Broken Slurpee machines and vanishing Abuelitas hot chocolate are a serious blow to convenience store lovers like us, and we're not afraid to say it! As we grapple with our snack frustrations, we open up about considering a boycott, because snacks matter. Meanwhile, Vampiro shares insights from his journey towards becoming a high school teacher. Did you know a coaching gig at a high school could lead to a single subject credential and a stipend? We didn't either!

Finally, we wade knee-deep into tales of fishing and work boots, because why not? As Rick shares his love for fishing and the elusive search for gold, we dive (pun intended) into discussions about the hybrid design of his favorite work boots. Taking a detour through Lake Gregory, we share our hilarious fishing escapades, the importance of having a day pass, and Vampiro’s infamous toilet search. The foot surgery chatter might make you squirm, but hey, we promised an engaging conversation, didn't we? So sit back, relax, and join us on this wild ride - you've earned it!

This week on Experience Design I had the opportunity to pick the brain of Ben Judy, the Head of User Experience Design at 7-Eleven.

Are you a contributor or a leader? What compels you to do the work you do as a designer? You may very well be equipped with the tools and skills necessary to deliver on "good design" but are you able to articulate the value of design? In order to gain a seat at the table, we need to be able to speak the language the rest of the people at the table are speaking. And that language is: business.

On this week's episode of Let's Get Real, Erica celebrates the eve of the joyous holiday of Purim, aka "The Jewish Halloween." Among many other reasons, this holiday is exciting because it heralds the coming of spring! Also this week was National Slurpee Day, when 7-Eleven invited customers to bring in their container of choice for a free fill-up – whether it was a cup, an oil drum, or even an inflatable kiddie pool.
