A question and an email from Steven’s younger sister prompt this episode, and get us wondering: What if we didn’t do everything (and anything) anyone (and everyone) wanted us to do? Could there be health benefits to saying no in middle age? And how do you tell the difference between what to take on and what to let go?
Plus weeks in review, family camping trips, eating well while on your own, and the benefits of weekly mileage instead of just long weekend runs.

In this episode we refer regularly to an article called “Fecal Incontinence Becomes More Common With Age.” So that gives you a bit of an idea of what you’re in for.
Join us as we talk pelvic floors, shifting microbiomes, can’t-eat lists, self-knowledge, anxiety-induced tummy troubles, rampant leaf-blowers, odes to bread, and Downton Abbey. Happy moving your bowels!

It’s our very first episode of the Two Gomers Podcast with a one-word title, but here’s the really interesting part: it’s about the health benefits of reading books, and books have LOTS of words in them! See? Really interesting!
Join us as we talk about our histories of reading, all the ways reading can be healthier than watching TV (even though we love TV and recorded an entire Bonus Disc ep about TV immediately after this one), cognitive reserve, theory of mind, empathy, bibliotherapy, stick-to-it-iveness, focus, and whether you can read while snacking. Also we say teat a lot – but that’s not our fault, it’s Stephen King’s. Happy reading!

We’re talking heart rates in this running-heavy episode, and taking a look at a way to exercise that’s getting a lot of attention these days: Zone 2 Training. What is it? How does it help make cardio more effective? Are there fun formulas to help figure it all out? The answer to that last one is a resounding yes, and the guys work it out together. Plus accidental NYC racing, romance running, Grand Canyon chat, and K-Pop Demon Hunters.

It the final episode of our Truman Quadrilogy (“Good Morning…and if I don’t see you later: Good Afternoon, Good Evening and Good Night!) and we’re in a midday kind of mood. We examined that little-talked-about (and little-loved) time of the day after lunch and before dinner where are all those weights we carry feel just a little heavier. Power naps! Protein snacks! Meditation! Walks! What helps us pursue health not only in middle age, but in the middle of the day? Splash some water on your face and join us as we seek to stay awake long enough to find out.
