For those of us in midlife, we know: our bodies ain’t what they used to be. So why are so many of us so resistant to learning more? Why, when we are hurt or suffering, do we ignore it rather than get help or advice? Is ignorance really bliss? Join…
No, this ep isn’t about whether our body-image is healthy enough to run around naked on the field during a football game. We are talking about consistency streaks – like when you run for a week in a row, or eat a healthy meal every day for a month, or…
Having trouble settling down before bed? That could be bad for your health. And your sleep. And your morning. And your day. Repeat ad infinitum. The guys talk about what it takes to separate from the business of the day and get ready for night in this, the second ep…
In Part II of our 400th episode, we continue digging into our first Core Question, going deeper and getting more personal. Plus, What’s Giving Us Life, the return of Songs To Run To, and of course, a ton plus ton fun stuff along the way. Subscribe to the Bonus Disc,…
We mark our 400th episode by asking our first Core Question. It’s about where we seek validation, why we seek approval, and how doing so in unhealthy ways can be an unwelcome giant in our lives. And it is such a beefy topic (with so much amazing input from the…
We continue our annual tradition of picking ONE WORD that we want to define our upcoming year, and it’s Steven’s turn. But first, a fun way he has been keeping track of when he’s read what books this year, and reading recommendations while he’s at it. Then he reviews last…
We kick off 2024 with our annual tradition: picking ONE WORD that we want to define our upcoming year. It’s Anthony’s turn, but first, one more (musical) Favorite Thing from 2023. Then he remembers (ha) last year’s word and talks about how it went before a deep discussion of hope…
On this blessed day-before-day-before-day-before-Christmas, it’s Gomers’ Favorite Things! Food! Shoes! Apps! Beds! TV! Movies! And Steven’s annual What’s New in Milk? segment. Enjoy, and Happy Holidays from the Gomers! Subscribe to the Bonus Disc, our second podcast, for up to four bonus episodes per month: www.patreon.com/twogomers All things Two Gomers…
What are we chasing, really? The guys go deep about how they want to live the second half of their lives, what they want to be known for, and how do to that in a success-driven world. Fame and glory? We’ll leave that to Indiana Jones. Plus, Turkey Trots in…
**The Turkey Trot starts at the 6 minute, 35 second mark!** It’s our first Turkey Trot Audio Guide, and the guys talk you through a 45 minute race, alternating between running for 3 minutes and walking for 1. And they use the time to its fullest, “clearing their queue” of…
As Thanksgiving approaches, we have home cooking on the mind (and in the stomach), so we’re devoting this episode to the health benefits of eating in. Financial! Nutritional! Familial! Recreational! And so much more-ial. Plus Steven says a swear word. Don’t worry, he’s just quoting one of his new heroes.…
They say size doesn’t matter, but we think it does, especially when you are looking at accomplishing a goal in your life. For us, the smaller the better when it comes to getting started. Each week we talk about a Baby Step we’ve taken toward health, and this week we…
We took a big swing and asked the Gomernation how the podcast has impacted lives…and you responded! We spend this ep feeling honored, inspired, and (in Anthony’s words) fascinated by how our little show has had a big effect on lives. Here’s to 15 more! Happy Listening, and Happy Running…
From khaki shorts to missed births to Code Browns to Star Wars reviews to healthy middle-aging, this is the first part of our 15th Anniversary celebration episodes! We – that means Steven and Anthony, but also you the listener – share favorite moments from the past 15 years. And surprise…
We released a live-to-tape episode about our Oregon visit on the Patreon, but we wanted to debrief a little on the main feed as well, so here is our episode about how actually hanging out with a friend IRL is good – for your relationship, for your mind and heart,…
Listen up, this’ll only take a second! Well ok, more like an hour. That’s how long we devote to talking about then importance of learning to listen well on this ep (minus Baby Steps of the Week and What’s Giving Us Life, of course). We get into it – what…
Everyone wakes up. But HOW you wake up could make a big difference in your life. In this ep, we dig deep into the early morning and how starting your day right can get you on track physically, mentally, and productively, and maybe even get you one step further in…
Anthony has a powerful experience being powerless for a prolonged amount of time, and shares how it brought him and his family closer together…but can impromptu moments of health and joy be replicated? Plus Baby Steps of the Week and a musical What’s Bringing Us Life This Week. Subscribe to…
It’s one thing to say you want to do something. It’s another to write it down on a list. But actually getting those things done? That’s another skill altogether. The guys talk about procrastination, feeling overwhelmed, guilt, shame, and laziness all play a part in this block to our health.…
Steven’s back from Ireland with a lot on his mind. One particular directive from the trip – “Travel Light” – has stuck with him, he needs to process it with Anthony, and it could change everything. Also, Baby Steps into the summer, and food books and Spider-Verses are bringing the…
The guys talk about one of their keystone habits: the short, easy, daily walk. Sound mundane? Sure. But you know us: we believe the small quiet things can have a huge impact. Plus: saying no, playing Zelda, and aligning Circadian Rhythms. Subscribe to the Bonus Disc, our second podcast, for…
We get pretty meta as we talk being present. Why is it so hard to be where, when, and with whom you are? We talk the health benefits of being in the now, and the dangers of being elsewhere. Plus, Baby Steps of the Week and What’s Giving Us Joy…
Note: You can listen to this episode any time, but it is specifically made to listen to while running a 5k! To celebrate our Fourth Annual Two Gomers Memorial Day Weekend “Hey How’s It Going” Virtual 5k and 10k we’re releasing our second Race Audio Guide! So suit up, get…
A special minisode for you: we give some details about The 4th Annual Memorial Day Weekend Two Germs “Hey How’s It Going?” Virtual 5k and 10k – coming up next weekend – then we do a quick round of What’s Giving Us Life This Week. See you at the (Virtual)…
The new Two Gomers Podcast is in full swing, and we start with something practical: bringing some order from chaos by way of cleaning up an unruly email inbox, and keeping it that way. Think that’s not deep enough? You don’t know the Gomers! Plus, Baby Steps of the Week,…
The new era of the Two Gomers has begun! Is it a premiere? Is it a reboot? Is it a sequel? Or is it what we’ve been doing all along? Whatever you call it, it’s the first episode under the new Two Gomers Podcast moniker, and we have a lot…
Mr. Speaker…the Two Gomers! For the first time on the main feed, the guys do their annual review of the podcast’s year gone by. What’s been working? What hasn’t? How are we feeling? And what’s next? Hear all the juicy details (but not as juicy as the director’s cut, coming…
Sometimes one block leads to another leads to another…and before you know it, a year has gone by. Anthony opens up about how his last year has been impacted by nagging and persistent injuries, what that has meant for his running, and what that means now. It’s all the typical…
The boys are back and they have a lot to talk about, including miles tracked at Disney World vs. Disneyland, a 100-Day-Dry update, feeling old, being quiet, showing empathy, and how best to use your voice. Steven’s block this past month was a rough surgery recovery, but we think you’ll…
Two years ago this month, Alex Grahmann guested on the Bonus Disc (www.patreon.com/twogomers) and helped us pick THE perfect cereal (ok, ok – the top three). On that now-classic ep, he mentioned that he would be starting his cereal-based YouTube channel, Cerealsly, soon. “Soon” has finally arrived! To celebrate Alex’s…
