And now it’s time for the perennial favorite top 10 list of the oldest people ever. I’m a little surprised to realize that I didn’t actually do one of these in 2024. So I’m sure anticipation for this episode is running high. Living to be 100 is still very rare, but according to a 2024…

First of all, I want to say to all you podcast listeners that an unboxing video is included in the video version of this episode. You can see it on the blog page at http://RunningAFEVER.com/385 if you want to watch it. Well, since there was an unboxing, I guess you can figure out that I got…

First of all, back problems are not new to me. I’ve had my share for sure. I know that going back to episode 53, that was when I started having pain in my arm and pain in my back. I went to a neurosurgeon, and that was when my Forestier’s was diagnosed. Recently, in the…

So, the big news is I’ve got braces. I’ve got braces for the first time in probably 45 years. I can’t remember exactly how old I was when I had my braces the first time, but I was very young. Why am I getting braces? Well, I’m concerned about my appearance. I have to look…

Going into this series I knew good oral care was important. That’s why I chose to do the series. But I honestly had no idea how important it really is. I’m concerned about my risk of stroke and heart disease. I’ve been overweight most of my life, I have high blood pressure, and my parents…
