Weekend Fix: The Poop Floor Feb 21, 2026

Show notes

Gary & Shannon finally say the quiet part out loud. On this Weekend Fix, they spill the behind-the-scenes drama that no longer fits on the weekday show—office politics, deserted floors, and how the once-electric KFI 4th floor became the building’s forgotten dungeon. They react to Tim Conway Jr.’s eerie video shot near the old offices, debate why everyone now sneaks downstairs for bathroom anonymity, and declare their floor the unofficial “poop floor” of the building.
Shannon suggests exposing the secret first-floor bathroom. Gary floats making a public bathroom protest upstairs. Someone says he’s starting to look like John & Ken. Signs are proposed. Lines are crossed. And the episode ends with Gary asking Shannon if she feels anything funny in her breasts—because apparently that’s where this conversation was always headed.
