News from the Crabby Coffee Shop

There’s a particular kind of clarity that comes with a good grumble, especially when it’s served with a laugh. That’s the atmosphere you’ll find each week on News from the Crabby Coffee Shop, a podcast from PodMN and Hubbard Radio. Hosts Kenny Olson of Garage Logic and former KSTP TV reporter Jay Kolls lean into their roles as seasoned curmudgeons, brewing up steaming hot takes on the issues and concerns of the day that are truly worth griping about. Their conversations feel like pulling up a chair at a familiar diner, where the news of the world-from Minnesota politics to global headlines-gets filtered through a lens of sharp wit and genuine exasperation. They’re often joined by a rotating cast of their so-called "famous" "friends," adding more voices to the mix. The charm of this podcast lies in its commitment to finding humor in the daily absurdities, arguing that no topic is too small for a proper grouse. It’s a refreshingly honest and consistently funny take on current events, perfect for anyone who prefers their news analysis with a strong dose of personality and a side of sarcasm.
