  • 141:Where's My Straight Flag?

    What happens when you mix movies, fitness, and a dash of humor? You get an entertaining chat that covers everything from our training experiences to teaching, homophobia, Piers Morgan, and more. Join us as we share a laugh or two and discuss iconic movies like Shawshank Redemption and The Matrix, marvel at the dated 3D animation, and weigh in on whether Marvel movies have become too humor-centric.

    Have you ever found yourself bonding over questionable sushi in Bali or comparing isotonic beverages across Asia? Well, we have, and we're here to share our stories about the restaurant scene in Auckland, odd medical treatments, and even sweating sock water (yikes!). Join us for some laughs and a look at the quirky side of travel.

    We've all experienced the challenges of training and the joys of cycling, but have you ever considered the loneliness of spinning classes? We delve into our thoughts on cycle classes and our own bicycle adventures. Plus, we reflect on the mixed messages of inclusivity month, the idea of a straight pride flag, and that hilarious party where one of us was mistaken for being gay.
