Ep 24 - The Talking Dads Are Back!
November 20, 2021 14:00 - 2 hours - 105 MBI am so excited to be back on a Bodcast with Ian and Steve of The Talking Dads. Every time we get together we have a blast talking about anything and everything and this episode was no exception. Of course, we talk fitness and fatherhood and even try a surprise bottle of scotch I brought for the boys. Ian, Steve, and I discuss Ian's fitness transformation and challenges. We also talk about how being a Dad of three has its own challenges for Steve. There is so much to unwrap in this episode y...
Ep. 23 - Who Wants to Live to 100?
November 13, 2021 01:00 - 55 minutes - 38.2 MBRead a pretty interesting article from Inside Hook the other day by Tanner Garrity called, "100 Ways to Live to 100: A Definitive Guide to Longevity Fitness." Now, I told my wife and kids that one item on my bucket list is to do 100 push-ups on my 100th birthday, so needless to say this article intrigued me. In this Bodcast, I discuss the article, along with some of the evidence behind the claims, and offer my observations, opinions, and some anecdotes of my own. I also discuss my exit from ...
Episode 22 - Ambush Bodcast: Ian Lewis
October 29, 2021 16:00 - 50 minutes - 34.9 MBMy second Ambush Bodcast and it just made sense to complete the set and go with the other member of the dynamic duo of the Talking Dads, Ian Lewis. After a couple of technical difficulties, we got rolling and talked about The Dads' latest episode #107, which dealt with the mental health side of parenting. We addressed the 3 pillars of Not My Dad Bod: Family, Fitness, and the Grind. I got Ian's take on how he is Being Something Better and Doing Cool Shit, as well. This Ambush went longer than...
Episode 21 - Sometimes The Come Back...
September 24, 2021 13:00 - 38 minutes - 26.2 MBThat's right, I am back, baby! I could not stay away from the Pod Life. Easing back into this stuff with a solo podcast that discusses a bunch of stuff.

Episode 20 - It’s December 2020 & COVID Still Sucks!
December 17, 2020 02:00 - 54 minutes - 37.6 MBBeen off for a bit but felt the itch to do a little podcasting, so here it is. Since the last few months have been a little slow on news and events, Ep. 20 is just me talking your ear off about The ‘VID, social media, falling off the training wagon in Pudgy Town, being a better human, 2021 goals, and the circus that is the 2020 election. Plus, I use more sounds effects! Enjoy!!
Episode 19 - Mark Smith (A Fitness Family Tradition)
September 29, 2020 11:00 - 1 hour - 63.1 MBVery happy to have Mark Smith on the Bodcast for this episode. Mark is a fitness professional but more importantly, a Dad who instills the values of fitness and training onto his two boys. This is a family tradition that started with his own father and we talk in great detail about how important that was for making Mark the man and father he is today, and how he wants to pass those lessons and traditions down to his boys. We talk bourbon (of course) and sprinkle in wrestling (the real kind) ...
Episode 18 - Ambush Bodcast: Steve Bacnik
September 03, 2020 11:00 - 32 minutes - 22.2 MBThe very first "Ambush Bodcast" where I call an unsuspecting Dad on the phone and record a bullshit session. This is unedited, unrehearsed and Steve was totally unaware I was going to do this. He was a great sport as we talked about the 3 F's (Fitness, Food, and Family) as well as if COVID were a Supervillian, who did Steve think it would be? Enjoy and please don't forget to subscribe!

Episode 17 - Carl Houde (The Podcast Engineer)
August 25, 2020 00:00 - 1 hour - 52.5 MBNot every Bodcast is about fitness, fighting to not look like a certain sea cow, or even talking with a Dad. Some opportunities are just too good to pass up and this was one of those times when I had the chance to talk with Carl House, aka The Podcast Engineer, and learn more about building a successful podcast.

The purpose of this bodcast was to talk about how to make training fun, but it turned into so much more. We discuss a boatload of topics including life in Japan, physical autonomy, the foundations of GMB Fitness, Ryan's Dad Life, nutrition, and much more.
