Episode 2 - Dr. Shannon O'Grady

You guys, I had a GREAT interview with Dr. Shannon O'Grady of Gnarly Nutrition [https://gognarly.com/] and asked her all about what I need to know to fuel myself for marathon training. She gave me the rundown on everything from macronutrients to electrolytes, and she even gave me some advice on what I need to do when I'm undertaking an all-day ultra. After my interview with Shannon, I was lucky enough to receive some samples of Gnarly's products, including the Hydration Drink Mix [https://gognarly.com/products/electrolyte-powder], the Vegan Plant Protein Powder [https://gognarly.com/products/vegan-protein], and the Fuel2O Sampler Pack [https://gognarly.com/products/fuel-sampler-pack]. I gotta say this is way better than any of the other stuff out there on the market! I love that they're made with ingredients I recognize and they blend well into liquids, so there's none of that chalky taste or artificial ultrasweetness that you see with similar products. The best part though? They really make me feel great! I was able to fill my handheld with the hydration mix for a long run in the heat, and the electrolytes kept me pumped. (Seriously, you don't realize how much dehydration hinders you until you take care of yourself the way you're supposed to.)  The protein powder works well in a smoothie and seriously reduced any soreness or fatigue I might typically feel after an extra-long run. I'm gonna be a customer of Gnarly for life!

Episode 1 with guest Chris Russell

I love a good serial drama, and one that I’m recently hooked on is After the Apocalypse. It’s this gritty, captivating story set in a world wiped out by a pandemic (too real, right?) and the existence that the survivors have to eke out for themselves. It’s, at times, both a slow burn and an edge-of-your-seat rollercoaster. Obviously, I can’t get enough of it. I recently had the chance to catch up with the show’s creator, Chris Russell, and talk to him about his vision and his creative process. Here's what we talked about! Be sure to subscribe and listen to After the Apocalypse [https://shows.acast.com/after-the-apocalypse] and see for yourself exactly why I can't stop thinking about this story.
