Aging looks very different in 2020 than it did when I was growing up.  The average 60-year-old man or woman looks and acts very differently than they did even a generation ago.  Fitness is the culprit.  That and eating healthier and living healthier lifestyles.  Until now, however, finding applicable information about aging and staying fit has been challenging.  Most of the available fitness information created is for a younger audience, and the information available doesn't address some of the biological changes those over 50 experience like changing hormones, changing digestion, and reduced recovery, for instance.  

And the information available for those over 50 is not always applicable to non-sedentary types and indeed not committed athletes that function at a high level of fitness and capability.

Kevin Myles, Author of The Diet That Works, is our guest today, and we talk about his new project that just launched, The Fifty Plus Fit Club.  Kevin is a well known trainer and qualitifed expert on nutriton and training and a 61 year old male elite athlete.  In other words, the perfect man for the job.

We are foster parents and our little boy Kwamane has been with us since he was 4 months old.  He is four now and has spend every day of his life since January 2017 with us.  Six weeks ago he went to live with his biological mother.  We knew it was coming and it's a day she has been dreaming about since they were separated and we are very happy and supportive of her.  But that doesn't make it easy, it just makes it right.  

Ana and I finally break the silence and talk about Kwamane and the story behind him leaving in this episode.

Ana has been my favorite model to work with for over a decade now.  We have done hundreds of photoshoots together, but since we became foster parents four years ago, and adoptive parents this year, working together has been rare. Recently, Aunt Elaine Goodlad gave us a day off, so Ana traveled with me to LA to do a photoshoot.

Ana and I talk about shooting together, modeling, and our shoot in LA.  I hope you enjoy and if you want to see the video of the photoshoot, click the link here.  And thank you for subscribing to my youtube channel.

As a father and a taxpayer, I can't help but look at the state of our world and ask myself who the heck raised these fools.  My grandmother was the most significant influence in my life, and she was born in 1917 in the prairie province of Saskatchewan in Canada.  She and my grandfather were farmers. They survived the "hungry thirties" as she called them and washed clothes with a washboard, fetched water from the dugout to cook and clean with, chopped wood to heat the house and stove, and a doctor was a day's ride away in a horse-drawn wagon. 

They came face to face with survival each day, and the community around them pulled together, so no one starved, and all had the bare necessities.  Manners were important, so civic pride and duty, hard work, integrity, and taking responsibility were the hallmarks of a good person. 

Times have changed.  But why have they changed?

Elaine Goodlad and I , or "Aunty Elaine" as she is called in our family, were raised by the same kind of people and come from the same neck of the woods.  We sit down to talk about what we think went wrong and how Ana, and I are raising our kids and why.

Before 2020 I always thought of people who stored large caches of food and water, medical supplies, and other supplies and survival equipment as oddballs. After lining up to buy toilet paper and rationing squares when none could be found, I have changed my opinion. Being prepared by having some basic survival provisions and equipment stored away is just prudent. In the event of something catastrophic happening to a community, it's the socially responsible thing to do.

Security and personal protection expert Micheal Healea joins me on this show to talk about scenarios that quite possibly could happen and how to prepare so you and your family can survive a catastrophic event or disaster.

This year has kicked everyone's butt and some people much harder than others. Suicide is such a problem that the US National Library Of Medicine website posted an article titled Covid19-Suicides: A Global Psychological Pandemic.  Ana and I talk about our circumstances and what we have learned about ourselves and each other that has helped us beat the hopelessness, frustration, and circumstantial depression so common in our country, and around the world.

As always, we hope to add something to your day that helps.

Alexi and Joli Irvine are sisters, professional dancers and models, and both are Vegas Showgirls.  They have played many of the biggest shows on the strip, yet they remain grounded and are sweet and down to earth girls despite their ample time in the spotlight.  When we visit, I often sit and marvel at their hyperspeed back-and-forth sibling banter, so I invited them to do a podcast with me to talk about dancing, performing, and being sisters.

Our eighth wedding anniversary came and went with little fanfare on the 8th of this month.  Ana and I had dated four years before we married, we wanted to be sure.  So with a strong love and twelve years of wedded bliss under our belts, it should have been a day we even wanted to celebrate.  But we didn't.  Not in the traditional way, at least.

This podcast is revealing.  We talk about how our marriage was brought to the brink this year, and why.  And we share the simple truth about how we turned things around.  And with all the love that fills our home, we talk about the most painful reason why our anniversary was a quiet one this year.

The Blackbean Coffee Company 

Kimi Couture, the business executive, and entrepreneur, turned professional fighter,  got into women's Mixed Martial Arts back when no one thought it would be successful.  She was one of the pioneers, one of the original few professional female MMA fighters in the world, and while she didn't win every fight she had, she was tough as nails and one of the most entertaining and exciting professional MMA fighters, male or female, of that time.

We sat down to talk about those days, growing up tough on a ranch in Colorado, her very public celebrity life, and very public divorce from MMA legend Randy Couture, and finally where she is today.

This year has taught us a great deal about ourselves, our family and life and we will never live it the way we once did.  It's infinitely better now.  In the absence of all we knew due to covid and quarantine, we discovered what really makes us happy and what is most important.  All of our dreams have changed, as have our goals, and our new life is much simpler than the one we were living before 2020.

Ana joins me for this show, the kids were napping, and we talk about those changes and how we are coming out on the other side of this a little battered but much better for the experience.
