Well, it’s been a while, huh? The Gomers are back with the first half of their two-episode May and June update. Join them as they talk injuries, year-goals, Disney World walking troubles, life-changes, bad reviews, and 80s Movie Twitter Feeds. And oh yeah, Steven’s bumbling encounter with THE Ryan Hall a couple weeks ago. Also, make sure you Save the Date for the 3rd Annual Gomer Group run, June 30 in Madison! Hope to see you there, Happy Running!...

Uh oh. Looks like the Gomers have done it again. While not a surprise, the guys are disappointed to have to announce that the Red White and Boom! Half Marathon is not going to work for them this year. Wanna know why, get some details, and hear what is most likely a little more processing about it that you needed? Then this, the first episode in the fourth-and-a-half season, is just what you’re looking for! Plus we talk about Modern Marvels: Beans, fat suits on skinny celebs, and the Kansas City ...

It’s here – Season 5 of Two Gomers Run For Their Lives! Get ready for some good old fashioned Gomer introductions, Gomer Seasons in Review, Gomer reflections and predictions, and of course, Gomer Tangents. It wouldn’t be a season opener (or a Gomer episode, for that matter) without them, right? If you can guess how THIS comes up, you get a prize. It’s gonna be a great season as the guys gear up for the Red White and Boom! Half Marathon in Minneapolis on July 4th. And, as they say several times, ...

OK, so Anthony’s 4-word review of the BOB stroller turned into a not-so-mini 36 minute Minisode. Sue us! We figured no one would complain…so enjoy this tangent-filled, gear-specific, up-to-the-minute episode on your weekend run. Happy Running!

The Gomers are back for their March Off-Season episode, and they have a lot of catching up to do. Join them to hear how their months of running have gone, whether or not their yearly mottos are sticking, how Anthony’s holding up as a new Dad, how Steven’s holding up in 2 feet of snow, and, most importantly, the Spring TV and movies they’re watching. OK, that’s not true – the most important thing is the new Half Marathon they’re running, which will also be the focus of the upcoming Season 5: The ...

As promised, the Gomers’ monthly off-season update podcast is here! And for the first time, the guys are recording in the same room – and that room is in one of the Gomers’ actual homes. Flagstaff is the place, Steven’s home turf, though only a month before they were together in Tampa. The guys relate their stories of runs in both places, and ask themselves if the grass is, in fact, greener. Join the guys as they talk about their months in review, Queen Amidala’s vocal prowess, alternate endings...

Update your Season 4 Challenge Status here! How many miles are you committing to run in 2012? New Years’ has come and gone, and so has Season 4. And it’s time to take stock on weight lost, distance run, and lessons learned. Join the Gomers in this, the season finale, as they discuss their (and the Nation’s!) one-word resolutions, the difficulty of looking in the mirror, incompetent Witness Protection Programs, and Gomer2’s extreme distaste for all things Dane Cook. Except for this. Thanks for a ...

Update your status in the Season 4 Challenges here! 2011 is over, and the guys spend this special, shorter episode discussing resolutions – theirs and the Nation’s – for 2012. Join them as they reveal their one-word commitments, and discuss their running and weight-loss goals as well. Plus delusional Star Trek captains, hipster journals, and Home Alone what-ifs. Oh my! Look what ya did, ya little jerk! Thanks for a great year, Gomernation! And here’s to a healthy and happy (running) 2012! Update...

The Gomers recorded their final Christmas episode before heading home to the midwest, and it’s a fun and festive one. Join them as they start talking about what happens after Season 4 comes to a close, give a couple more Christmas Songs to Run To, and spend a lot of time sharing their Gomers’ Favorite Things, Stuff Edition. Oh yum. A heartfelt Merry Christmas from the Gomers, Gomernation! Enjoy, and Happy Running!

It’s snowing in Flagstaff and sunny in Florida, but the Gomers are having no problem connecting on their one true passion – Christmas – in this, their second Holiday episode of 2011. Join them as the talk cold-weather running, soprano sax vs. oboe, Lego separator tools, Home Alone 2 plot-points, and a certain faux-opera singer’s ettiquette demands. Noooooooooooooo!!!!!! Enjoy the season, the guys sure are! Happy Christmas, and Happy Running!

Update your status in the Season 4 Challenges here! Deck the halls, ring the bells, and call your mom – the Two Gomers’ Christmas episodes have finally begun! And besides a little confusion concerning what kind of tree is evergreen, the guys seem to be in their element – join them for Christmas light-color pros and cons, Turkey Trot Reviews, the return of Gomers’ Favorite Things, and, of course, in depth discussion of their favorite movie ever. Or maybe the other one is their favorite movie ever...

Register for the Season 4 Challenges here! It’s one week from the first Challenge of season 4, and the guys are gearing up for the upcoming Thanksgiving 5k!

It’s Part 2 of the very long Episode 4, and the guys are talking running, food, and music. Join them as they discuss their weight loss so far, the strangeness of the Breakfast Salad concept, and who’s better – Coldplay or Switchfoot. They wonder too. Join us on MONDAY when Anthony interviews The Brad about his New York Marathon experience, and then next week for our final episode before the Thanksgiving 5k! Happy Running!

Ok, so it’s been a strange season, that’s true. But Anthony is back from his travels, and the guys are ready to talk about their weeks, update each other and the Nation on their weight loss and journeys toward the Thanksgiving 5k, and talk food, TV, music, and all the things you’re used to from the Two Gomers. Plus a REALLY CREEPY Halloween story about one of these: Oooooooooooooo. Hope you enjoy! And please share your Songs To Run to for this week’s Monday Survey! Happy Running!...

Register for the Season 4 Challenges here! Gomernation, some sad news. Anthony’s grandmother passed away last week and he’s been in WI for the past couple days, unable to record. But the guys decided that with Challenge 1 of Season 4 fast approaching, it was worth it for Steven to take one (hopefully final) crack at a solo podcast. But don’t fret, there will be plenty of special guests and fun surprises. HInt. Hope you enjoy! Happy Running! Oh, and this week’s Monday Survey: What’s your go-to HE...

Good news, Gomernation! BOTH Gomers are back for this, the second episode of the fourth season. While much of the episode is welcoming Anthony back and catching up on the not-so-insignificant new developments in his life, the guys find enough time (admittedly, not so hard in an hour thirty minute podcast) to update each other on their progess in the Season 4 Challenges, eating habits, Fall TV impressions, and running celebrity sightings. 95% sure. This week’s Monday Survey: Any suggestions for n...

Make it official! Register for the two Season 4 Challenges here! Ok…so things have gotten a little crazy! But Episode 1 of Season 4 still appears, albeit a little differently than normal. Obviously, this is going to be a season like no other – and here’s the reason: Meet Lilianna Georgeson, Gomer 1.1! So it’s just Steven this time, but he does his best to start the season off with a (relative) bang, catching the Nation up on the two Season 4 Challenges (which you can register for here ) and what...

The Gomers are back with a new name, a new logo, new theme music…and two new challenges as they preview Season 4. Join them as they lay out the details of what they’ll be doing – and what they’re inviting the Gomernation to do – over the next several months or so. Plus there’s Emmy’s chat, discussion on how and how quickly previously-pregnant people lose weight, and a touching reading of our worst iTunes review ever. Which has become sort of a tradition for the Gomers as they launch a new season...

Welcome to Part II of The Gomers’ longest episode to date – almost 2 full hours of looking forward, pontificating, tangenting, and baby-talking. Sheesh, hope you have a long run coming up so you have time to listen! If not, do it in small, manageable chunks. When they start talking ABSOLUTE BEST MOVIE OF THE SUMMER, you’re almost there. Recognize this famous movie location?! Thanks for listening, Happy Running!...

Summer is coming to a close, and the Gomers have decided to look ahead. Join them as they make a valiant attempt at an impromptu and candid conversation about what’s next for the Gomers, and come surprisingly close to a conclusion. Also, it wouldn’t be an episode of the Two Gomers Podcast if there wasn’t a healthy amount of TV chat, especially with the new fall season on the horizon. You might be surprised about what they’re looking forward to…then again, you might not. Not likely. Expect Part I...

Yes, there’s a Gomer Group Run update. And a summer running update, too. But mostly this episode consists of the two guys catching up, as they’ve been state-hopping for the past two months. So get ready for conversation on topics ranging from Harry Potter to how Tony’s baby’s doing, from Bon Iver to which Star Trek captain is best, and from Abraham Lincoln to the star-studded cast of Camp Cucamonga. Do the rap, Urkel! Please enjoy each and every minute of the 84! Happy summer, and Happy Running!...

The guys try their hardest to make this a simple reminder about the Gomer Group Run coming up on July 16th… …but it’s been so long since they recorded that they end up talking about McDonald’s Sweet Chili Sauce, Steven’s high school french class, and an alternate universe Marty McFly. Of course. Enjoy, and please responde si vous plait on the Event Page ASAP! Merci! Click here to go to the Event Page!...

Stop! If you haven’t listened to the latest Special, Two Gomers’ Life Lessons, do it before listening to this episode! Download here ! It’s the Season 3 finale, and it’s a doozy. While there are plenty of chances to tangentize (which they do, and we learn the true definition of “amateur” because of it), the guys focus their attention on one topic: What to do with the fact that their goal, publicized in the title of this months-long season, went unmet. Other questions inevitably follow: Will they...

Join the guys as they begin to process the day of the race, what happened when, why and with whom. It was a roller coaster of a day, and the Gomers attempt to recreate it in a way that’s honest yet hopeful – a week out, that almost seems possible! Listen also as they remember their meetings with the Gomernation fondly, and sheepishly try to recall the name of the Gomer Fli...

Get the Special, EP, or Shirts by clicking here! The Gomers are in a rare position: Both in the same room at the same time. That’s because in less than a day the season culminates in the Sub-Five, 26.2 effort – and the guys have a lot to say about it. Thankfully they have the Gomernation’s feedback and thoughts to keep this, their final episode before the race, semi-organized. It does have a certain feeling of…well…ramdomness, let’s say. Maybe it has to do with the fact that Gomer2 almost killed...

There’s two weeks until the marathon, and the Gomers are preparing – mentally, emotionally, and physically. Join them as they discuss the impending sub-5 goal, and their “dress rehearsals”: The 20 miler. The good news: they went surprisingly well. The bad news: Well, let’s just say it has the potential to be pretty bad indeed. And, for the last time this season, some of your favorite sections: Week in Review, True Gomer Confessions, Week in Preview, and 2 new Songs To Run To. Enjoy, and Happy Ru...

The guys are recovering from their 18 milers (just in time to run their 20 milers next week) by recording a Listener-centric Minisode. Hear as they discuss bagels and nipple guards, running sockless, trusting your training, hot Borgs, and their next fundraising goal: $2.4 million. It’s within our grasp… Hope you enjoy, and Happy Running!

For the first time ever, the Gomers are recording an episode MINUTES after running their LSRs – the dreaded 18 miler, to be exact. Great idea, huh? The Gomers thought so, you’ll have to judge the results for yourself. Just a heads up – there’s bonking and second (and third) winds all over the course of this one episode, one Gomer ends up on the floor in pain for a while, and neither guy can remember exactly which episode number this is supposed to be, as if that’s difficult to find out. Plus, Go...
