Two Gomers Run For Their Lives

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…
