Colby gets bitten by a woodchuck he picked up in a parking lot, fearing rabies.

The episode opens with Sean Jennings, Colby Rabideau, and Dan Miller introducing the show. Sean shares his experience with a Seattle-based sourdough pizza delivered frozen to his door, highlighting its unique business model using a Shopify website and local couriers. The conversation shifts to GPS mapping errors, with Dan describing how deliveries often go to a mirrored address a quarter-mile away due to street numbering quirks. Colby recounts a personal story of being bitten by a woodchuck while attempting to move it from a parking lot, discussing rabies risks and his mother's reaction. An email from listener Jim recommends the budgeting app YNAB, which connects to bank accounts via Plaid. Colby seeks advice on replacing his 15-year-old computer chair, leading to a discussion on adjustable armrests and office chair preferences. The tech news segment covers Heinz's new 'Heinz Remix' digital sauce dispenser, which allows users to mix base sauces with flavors like jalapeno and mango via a touchscreen. They compare it to Coke Freestyle machines and discuss secret menus. Another news item details Meta's record $1.3 billion EU fine for data privacy violations, with a grace period and ongoing negotiations for a new data transfer deal. The hosts also touch on Apple's compliance with Dutch dating app regulations. In the picks segment, Sean recommends Screamscape.com for theme park news, Dan praises the Tailwind smart garage door opener for its reliability and HomeKit integration, and Colby endorses Apple TV+ for its consistently good content. The episode wraps with plugs for their other podcast, Up for Debate.
