Hey, we’ve all been there – you’re doing fine and then urg: your stomach cramps up. Or your side splits. Is it something you ate? Is it your posture? Is it your dang attitude? We focus on that midsection and the seizing that so plagues it in this ep as we try to get to the bottom (or middle?) of this tricky block.

Steven’s beard is going grey. That happens when you hit middle age. So why is it so hard? And what, if anything, should he do about it? The guys talk a lot about self-image in this one…including the differences between men and women, and wild vs. distinguished. Plus, Songs To Run To and spring jacket chaaaaaaat! Happy Greying!

To Go Grey Or Not To Go Grey?


We step into the Delorean and try not to unravel the very fabric of the space time continuum and destroy the entire universe while giving our younger selves a little but of advice. No sports betting here, we promise! Just heartfelt, gentle words of encouragement toward health that we hope won’t cheat our younger selves out of the amazing gifts we received in our 20s…including failure, unmet expectations, and mistake after mistake after mistake. Plus an all-time Gomer’s Tip and Solar Eclipse Chaaaat!

What Would You Say To Your Younger Self?


For those of us in midlife, we know: our bodies ain’t what they used to be. So why are so many of us so resistant to learning more? Why, when we are hurt or suffering, do we ignore it rather than get help or advice? Is ignorance really bliss? 



Join the guys as they talk openly about their own barriers to going to the doctor, their desires to be healthy, and how they feel about people messing with their butts. Plus, a Gomer Update and What’s Bringing Us Life This Week! Happy Colonoscoping!

Go To The Doctor


No, this ep  isn’t about whether our body-image is healthy enough to run around naked on the field during a football game. We are talking about consistency streaks – like when you run for a week in a row, or eat a healthy meal every day for a month, or close your rings for 541 days without stopping, or when you do Wordle a lot. Do streaks – and one’s adherence to them (or lack thereof) – help or hurt in a journey toward health? The guys dig in to the pros and cons, and discuss an alternative that might help them, and you. Plus more grocery store clips, a healthy amount of Dune Part Two Chaaaaaat, and Bob Dylan too. Happy Streaking!

To Streak or Not To Streak?


Having trouble settling down before bed? That could be bad for your health. And your sleep. And your morning. And your day. Repeat ad infinitum.



The guys talk about what it takes to separate from the business of the day and get ready for night in this, the second ep in the Truman “Have a Good…” series. Circadian rhythms! Seinfeld routines! Sunglasses at night! Pillow talk boundaries! And a very mysterious event that they can neither confirm or deny, that happened already, so I guess we can confirm it now? Have a good evening!
