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 this weekend for 6.2 Gomertrons and above!) and hear some BIG NEWS about what the future holds!

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 deep-digging that you’ve come to expect from the Gomers…plus, believe it or not, a ton of fun stuff along the way.

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 like how this story ends. Happy Running, so good to be back!

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 new endeavor (new episodes of Cerealsly are now dropping every Friday) and because Steven’s throat is still healing, we thought unlock the episode from behind the paywall for all t...

It’s the Gardetto’s of Two Gomers eps! Before Steven went under the knife last week and took a month-long vow of silence (he’s doing great!), the guys talked about everything they needed to talk about – and most of it had to do with their health journeys. Steven ran his annual birthday 13.1 race and give a race in review. Anthony made a big commitment for his physical, mental, and spiritual health. And Steven answered some pressing questions about his upcoming surgery. Oh, and a ton of fun stuff...

We continue our 2023 kick-off with our annual tradition: picking ONE WORD that we want to define our upcoming year. It’s Anthony’s turn, and he reviews his Simple years gone by and looks ahead to something completely different. As usual, we go deep and have a lot of fun…expect a lot more of that in 2023!

We kick 2023 off with our annual tradition: picking ONE WORD that we want to define our upcoming year. It’s Steven’s turn, and after he has Anthony flip a proverbial coin, he settles (ha) on his word, and it turns out to be just the right one. Plus, runny nose chat and Anthony asks Steven what might be the most controversial question in all of Gomer history. It’s about dog poop. Happy New Year!

Unless you’re sipping from the Holy Grail while keeping Indiana Jones at bay with increasingly nonsensical booby traps, we all have to face it: aging.

Gomertron and Podcast Archiver Mackenzie Wiebe wrote us an email earlier this year. Subject: “Dudes, stop dieting.” So we invited her on the show to tell us how dieting was messing with her life and blocking her health, how she got out from under toxic diet culture and learned to trust and love her body, and how her life has changed because of it.
