I had such a great conversation with Michael in the last Adventure-cast, I decided to invite him back for another… who knows, this may turn into something we do regularly. Let us know in comments if you like it!

This episodes starts with a rant about Frontier Communications - and inept handling of the transition from Verizon to their company. We used to get all of our services from Verizon Fios… TV, Internet, Phones. Now it’s all Frontier - and the transition has been a disaster!

Next we get into a conversation about the human micro-biome and the company Mother Dirt. Interestingly enough, their founder and chief scientist hasn’t taken a shower (or bath) in 14 years! Yikes!

The rest of the podcast we talked about things like:

  • Dog training
  • Meditation
  • Acceptance of what is
  • The history of cancer (Michael is reading a book about the history of cancer called The Emperor of All Maladies
  • Products developed because of war
  • Game of Thrones (Michael is quite the expert - and takes pride in that fact)
  • Andy’s update on his 4:30am Wake-Up Experiment
  • Andy started a public blog for his personal journaling
  • Listening to podcasts - the incredible depth of sharing that happens in long-form podcasting through conversation.
  • The incredible underdog story behind Leicester City winning the English Premier League (soccer) this season
  • Andy’s update from the Paleo Fx convention - hanging out with people paleo-celebrities like Mark Sisson, Robb Wolf, Sarah Ballentyne, Abel James, Melissa Hartwig, John Durant, Craig Ballentyne
  • Hunter Gatherers - what it was like and how it relates to Paleo
  • Gardening
