Gone are the days of Jeff and Spencer’s asinine jokery, That Happens chronicles the slow deconstruction of the man Patton Oswalt once hailed as having “incredible comedic timing.” Ranting uninterrupted about daily political minutia or tiktok trends, Spencer occasionally breaks down and questions his life, podcast, and reality itself, as Kevin smiles, pained, trying to pull the show back onto the rails with a listener question or quick-fire rhetorical premise. What was is gone, and what’s left is bitter, battery acid-flavored reality. That Happens.","last_synced_at":"2026-06-04T14:20:37.743605+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/that-happens-1577061"},"episode":{"title":"Constantly Unfolding Chaos","slug":"constantly-unfolding-chaos","published_at":"2026-01-15T05:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/that-happens-1577061/constantly-unfolding-chaos","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/that-happens-1577061","url":"https://traffic.megaphone.fm/DISAST1627349546.mp3?updated=1769039259","audio_url":"https://traffic.megaphone.fm/DISAST1627349546.mp3?updated=1769039259","summary":"We look back at our predictions we made at the start of last year, along with current events... in horror.
