About our drink:

Cooperstown Distillery – Beanball Bourbon

A hand-crafted blend that adds a degree of softness on the palette while creating layers of depth and complexity.  Our distiller decided to bump this up slightly in proof in order to accentuate the finish notes on this thoroughly enjoyable spirit.

About our gear:

Pat Flynn’s, “Introduction to Kettlebells: A Minimalist’s Guide to Blasting Fat and Boosting Muscle”

You never outgrow the fundamentals. You simply move more deeply into them. For anyone – the kettlebell novice to the 15-year veteran – this short (read: just 30 page) ebook provides the perfect foundation or refresher of the fundamental kettlebell techniques, including the kettlebell swing, goblet squat, snatch, Turkish get up, clean, and military press. Each movement has detailed instructions plus step-by-step photos to help the reader understand the movements as well as safely and effectively execute them.

After we discuss the hows of each of the basic movements, we move into applying what we’ve learned with a simple, straightforward kettlebell program for strength, muscle, mobility, conditioning, and (for those who want it) weight loss. This 7-day program can be run through just once as a refresher or for up to six weeks as a standalone program.

About the Topic:

This week we talk about the importance of staying fit and the virtues and vices that are associated with the fitness world.

Pat Flynn is a try-hard at a lot of things: Writer. Philosopher. Business and Fitness Coach. Guitarist. Tae Kwon Do Black Belt. Catholic.

    Oh wow great episode men. Mr Pasoda thank you so much for your question concerning some of we converts gathering up all the Catholic-ly things. Just started RCIA this August.,Thanks to Jesus and Fr Boettger at UC of Boulder. I think I own nearly a dozen books on the subject. I wonder if you could kind of answer your own question to help us unpack this situation.
    Great podcast keep up the stellar work!
