The Two Gomers Podcast

Spring has sprung, and so has a new, off-season episode of Two Gomers Run for Their Lives.  Join the Gomers as they catch up with what’s been happening the past two months.  They talk impromptu races, bassoon solos, new popes, Survivor meltdowns, Biggest Loser meltdowns, Peeps being yucky, running ruts, Magic Erasers, and April resolutions, and teeth-staining beverages.  You know, the regula...

The race is over and done, and the guys are on hand to do a full race in review and close up shop on the “Back to the Basics” Season 5.  Join them as they talk overhydration, deep conversations, hitting (or not hitting) the wall, misjudged start times, Parenthood (and 30 Rock and The Office), meeting new members of the Gomernation, hilariously tall half marathon walking teens, juicing,...

It’s THE WEEK BEFORE THE RACE, and the Gomers are excited and nervous and expectant and freaking out and all the feelings you’re supposed to be feeling before a big race.  Some things that are helping them: A detailed race in preview, words of encouragement from the GomerNation, memories of races gone by…and oh yeah, juicing. No, not that kind. Wish the guys luck on Sunday the 20...

There’s all sorts of fun stuff in this, the penultimate episode before the big race!  Join the guys as they talk tapering, yearly goals shattered by fractions, juicing (not that kind), Biggest Loser breakdowns, and pickle tips.  Plus the annual tradition of New Year’s Resolutions in One Word or Less.  Can’t think of a word?  Maybe Jillian will scream one at you. Does this help? O...

It’s what wouldn’t fit in the final Christmas Special, and that might be a good thing…as this review of The Hobbit is bursting with spoilers.  Just like that think on the Goblin King’s neck would burst if you poked it too hard with a stick. At least this image isn’t in 48 fps. Enjoy the little episode, let us know what you thought of the movie, we want to hear your ta...

In this, the third and final Christmas Special of 2012, the guys try to cram everything in – so much that they had to split the episode and move their Hobbit review to a separate episode.   They start with some sobering words and thoughts about last week’s tragedy, then move to Week In Review, Gomer’s Favorite Things, and Listener Feedback.  And yes, it’s PACKED with holida...

It’s the Gomers’ second Christmas special of 2012, and they are in a festive mood…well, unless they’re talking about rough weeks and rough runs and totally wanting to quit and stuff.  Otherwise, join them as they talk happily about Holiday Wish Lists, band-geek near-death experiences, Christmas movie plotholes, lights on their knuckles, cheese-drenched al dente cauliflower,...

The Gomers’ favorite time of year is upon us, and so they present to you, Nation, the first of three Christmas specials.  Listen in as they talk Turkey Trots, Holiday Movies, Long Runs, Christmas Traditions, Barrette Clips, and Disneyland Little People Singing Jingle Bells. Little Christmas People, Big Christmas World This week’s Monday Survey:  What’s on your running Christmas W...

After a week of sickness and travel, the Gomers are back at it again just in time for Thanksgiving.  Join them as they talk Songs To Run To, Turkey Trots, secret vacations, roadside terror, predicting elections, new Wii systems, and this one thing that happens to Steven when it’s cold that he’s wondering whether it happens to anyone else. Brrrrr! Monday Survey – What are you Than...

In an episode that gets both serious and silly, the Gomers discuss all things pressing that are, by now (several days after recording!), completely out of date.  Join them as they talk about their weeks in review, but also the cancelation of the NYC marathon, the upcoming (er, just-completed) election, and, more importantly, the pros and cons of last week’s pop-culture-exploding acquisition....

It’s a shorter episode this week, but it’s still crammed with Gomer goodness.  Listen in as the guys discuss how to deal with bad runs, how much Halloween scares them, and what to lube when.  Also, they are out of love with the iPad mini.  And there’s this really interesting bit where some absolutely HUGE news is broken, and the guys don’t even realize it. Obi-Wunder New Ma...

In our continuing quest to record an episode under an hour – we fail again.  Oh, but this one is PACKED.  Back to the Future plot holes.  Stretching (or not stretching) tips.  Reverse glottal fries.  Training schedules.  Hipster quandaries. Dressing room misshaps.  And the best thing of all:  A good week of running!  Huzzah!  Oh, wait, not QUITE the best thing: Maybe HE should try some skinn...

It’s a lot of orchestra chat to start this episode out, but the guys do their best to bring it back to running…most of the time.  Listen in as the guys talk increasing running distance, forgetting to stretch, and of course – balancing running and real life.  Also Goonies, robots, New Jersey, and iPhones 5s.  Plus, is this the guys’ favorite movie?  This week, maybe. This we...

The boys are getting back in the groove of things – that includes on the road, on the podcast, and on the dance floor.  But is there such a thing as too much of a good thing?  Yes.  Yes there is. The exact moment Steven’s foot got re-injured. Join the Gomers as they spend time talking about their last week in running, traveling all over the country last weekend, going (or not going) ve...

Season 5 is upon us, and things may seem familiar.  The guys are training for the same half-marathon from Season 1, they are listening to the same music to get pumped up, they have some of the same hopes and fears from four years ago…and yeah, they still love talking running, TV, movies, tech, and everything you’ve come to expect from the Two Gomers. The Gomers reunite, AND the cast of...

How Gomerish is it that the finale of a season is mostly about Movies and TV?  Answer: very Gomerish.  Join the guys as they burn off some podcast material here at the end of the summer and talk all things Batman, Olympics, and quinoa pronunciation, in that order. Princess Diaries 3 The Gomers are taking a break till the end of September, see you in Season 5!

The original plan was for the guys to wrap up things this episode, but they got talking so much about whether becoming vegans would affect their running, they had to ONCE AGAIN push the Summer TV and Movie Chat and Olympics Chat to another episode! That’s cool, enjoy this episode as the guys talk food, running, and whether “Gomer” should be allowed in Words With Friends.  Plus, a...

The Gomers are back after their small hiatus, since there’s a race to review, a return to the road to dissect, and the Olympics to start (but not finish) to analyze.  Join the guys as they talk about their month in review, what makes a hometown a hometown, Abraham Lincoln’s big year, The Brad’s new baby, and oral fixations.  Plus, how proud they are to run with their wives. Gomer...

The 3rd Annual Gomer Group Run was a big success, and the guys break it down in this latest episode in their off-season.  New friends, old friends, the kids’s run, and the negative impacts of a bike on Anthony’s body – it’s all here! Always an amazing time with the GomerNation! Also, the Gomers hash out what they are feeling about the last year or so in their (running) live...

(or: Gomer 1 had no idea who the Hulk was)   It’s a good one, folks:  Injuries! Cooking Shows!  Daytime Anchor feuds!  First Father’s Days!  Somewhat spoiler-free blockbuster reviews!  Final Gomer Run Preparations!  And the Gomer Movie Ratings System explained.  That should last you for another long run, huh? Take a tip from the Gomers: Run. Hope you like it!  Oh, and don’t...

What, two episodes in two weeks?  That’s what happens when the guys haven’t recorded for a while – they have a hard time stopping!  In this episode, they bring back a couple long-dormant segments:  Songs to Run to and Eat and Run.  They also make an interesting discovery while digging deep into some Listener Feedback, share some college memories, and discuss which is worse &#8211...

Well, it’s been a while, huh?  The Gomers are back with the first half of their two-episode May and June update.  Join them as they talk injuries, year-goals, Disney World walking troubles, life-changes, bad reviews, and 80s Movie Twitter Feeds.  And oh yeah, Steven’s bumbling encounter with THE Ryan Hall a couple weeks ago. Also, make sure you Save the Date for the 3rd Annual Gomer Gr...

Uh oh. Looks like the Gomers have done it again.  While not a surprise, the guys are disappointed to have to announce that the Red White and Boom! Half Marathon is not going to work for them this year.  Wanna know why, get some details, and hear what is most likely a little more processing about it that you needed?  Then this, the first episode in the fourth-and-a-half season, is just what you&#82...

It’s here – Season 5 of Two Gomers Run For Their Lives!  Get ready for some good old fashioned Gomer introductions, Gomer Seasons in Review, Gomer reflections and predictions, and of course, Gomer Tangents.  It wouldn’t be a season opener (or a Gomer episode, for that matter) without them, right? If you can guess how THIS comes up, you get a prize. It’s gonna be a great sea...

OK, so Anthony’s 4-word review of the BOB stroller turned into a not-so-mini 36 minute Minisode.  Sue us!  We figured no one would complain…so enjoy this tangent-filled, gear-specific, up-to-the-minute episode on your weekend run.  Happy Running!
