Is “no worries” secretly the most passive-aggressive phrase in the English language? Rob Raffety returns to Hot Yoga Problems with a high-heat monologue full of sweat-soaked wisdom, 50th birthday reflections, and rage-turned-rap on the roads of DC.

In this episode, Rob rants about studio etiquette, explores the chaos of turning 50, breaks down his podcast break, and shares how freestyle raps are his latest antidote to terrible drivers. Equal parts cathartic and comedic — it’s classic Raff’s Brain.
