RAF366: It’s About the Fat

I’m pretty sure I was very critical of the keto diet from the beginning. And even in this interview, you can tell that Michael had lost a lot of weight, but his wife, as his medical professional, told him this was not a healthy way to eat. It seems pretty obvious to me that a…

RAF365: Smoothies and Tomato Sauce

Episode 108 was recorded at Devil’s Den State Park, which I have been to many times. And I was undoubtedly on the Yellow Rock trail. I’ve never been on an other trail there, which makes me think maybe I should try some of the other ones. But I love the view from the top, which…

RAf363: Can’t Get no Satisfaction

I remember this day very well; it was November 3rd, 2018. The episode was called “Achieving the Goal,” a two-parter, this being part 1. The goal was to walk two circuits of the Lake Fayetteville trail in one day, and this was recorded on the day that I did it. Read the full post at…

RAF362: Pickup the Pace

Well, this episode came out on December 17, 2018. It’s a little dated now, you may have noticed. Walmart still has grocery pickup. The thing is, everybody does now.

RAF361: Having Enough But Not Too Much

In addition to learning about Mauritius, a country I had never even heard of before, there were great life discoveries revealed in this episode. My comments about walking and running requiring no financial investment are even more impactful to my philosophy as of late. Off and on in my life, I have wavered between materialism…

RAF360: Adaptation and Aggressiveness

Welcome. The biggest thing I get from this episode is adaptation. When life throws something at me that knocks me off course, like COVID, for example, or a torn Achilles tendon, I need to adapt. If I have an injury I can look at alternate modes of exercise. I can switch hands if I’m having…

RAF359: Generations of Time

I kind of wanted to talk about time today. I also wanted to mention that I saw a news article about “Long COVID” and some new information about it, so hopefully, that will show up in a future episode. I’ve wanted to learn something new about that for a long time. I know there is…

RAF358: Undepressed

And we’re walking! A couple is trying to fly a kite in this crazy Arkansas wind. It’s beautiful, even if it’s not working very well for them. Many people are out here today, but I’m still close to the parking lot. It’s a beautiful day. I think the temperature is at about the high point…
