Spooky season has officially arrived, and we’re kicking it off with a classic. Shawn introduces Leah to They Live, the 1988 sci-fi cult classic starring Roddy Piper. Shawn recently picked up two NECA alien action figures from the movie, so naturally, that meant Leah had to watch it. Did she
We Went Viral… And Now We Have a Robin’s Donuts Dilemma! It’s birthday week around here! Leah celebrated her 47th birthday on August 29. Shawn is getting ready to hit the big 5-0 on September 3. We’re celebrating both birthdays with a big BBQ potluck at Shawn’s dad’s place on
It’s another jam-packed episode of Have Coffee Will Travel, and this time we’ve got a little bit of everything! We start with yard sales, including one we hosted ourselves a few weeks ago. It was definitely not the typical hot summer yard sale day. Instead, it was cold, nasty and
What started as a simple garage cleanup turned into one of the most unexpected wildlife rescues we’ve ever experienced! While getting organized for an upcoming yard sale, Leah discovered a mother mouse and five tiny babies hiding in a box. We share the surprisingly heartwarming story of how Mom made

Episode 50… and it feels about right that everything is a little chaotic. Leah’s got a decision to make. She just started a part-time job—but now a friend has offered her a short-term opportunity with better pay. The catch? She’d have to delay the job she just committed to. We
☕ Episode 49: Bees, Bills and YouTube Thrills This episode starts where a lot of conversations seem to live these days—YouTube. We dig into the world of influencers and content creators. Some are making amazing stuff. Others? Not so much. When you have to post to stay relevant, even the
☕ Episode 48: Great Lakes Geek Fest Subtitle: Selling at the Con This week, we take Have Coffee Will Travel on the road—well… to a convention hall here in Sault Ste. Marie for the very first Great Lakes Geek Fest, put on by Kanto Kreations. And yes—we had a booth.
Episode 47 — From Star Trek to Van Life This episode of Have Coffee Will Travel looks a little different…because it is. For the first time, Shawn set up a camera and filmed the podcast while recording the audio. Why? Because he’s gearing up to launch a new YouTube project
Episode 46: Showgirls VS Alien This week, we dove headfirst into the neon chaos of Showgirls. Leah had seen it years ago. Shawn had not. We pressed play with cautious optimism.
