Welcome to Who Are These Guys EP 245, where Kurt, Jesse, & JK tackle the important questions, like, “Am I gay for going backwards on the elliptical?” and “What even is gym etiquette?” 

In this episode, titled Confessions of a Planet Fitness User, we dive headfirst into the world of gym culture, workout routines, and, of course, the not-so-secret business model of Planet Fitness (spoiler: they’re banking on you not showing up).

Expect witty banter, tangents about life’s absurdities, and enough sarcasm to fill a protein shaker. Whether you're a regular gym rat or someone who pays for a membership just to feel better about binge-watching Netflix, this episode is for you.
