Satisfying Static
Not sure what to listen to? Looking for an entertaining buzz of background noise? Satisfying Static is it. Join Kristine and Maggie as they banter around a randomly generated word. Do they stick to a conversation about that word? Heck no! That’d be too easy. No, this stream-of-conciousness style podcast follows the hosts down the rabbit of their brains. No one ever really knows where they’ll end up. Will the conversation be deep? Funny? Informative? (Pssst, all 3)

In today’s extended episode, Kristine demonstrates her amazing ability to bring the conversation back around to the word of the day! How did she do it?
Yeah…we’re going to make you listen to find out. Mostly because both Maggie and Kristine have ADHD so they honestly forgot.
But! Today’s episode does feature some important info about student loan forgiveness! Head over to Kristine’s profile on TikTok or Instagram (Kristinekapow) and her link will have more info about what you need to take advantage!
As for the rest of it? Something about Hogwarts, apples, and Leo’s.
