The Two Gomers Podcast

Claim a Gomernumber Updated:  Click here to see the GomerRegistry, and which numbers are still available! It’s the first Special of Season 3: Two Gomers’ Rules of Thumb! The guys are reaching back into the archives and thinking through their top ten Gomers’ Tips from the past three years.  Then, after much pontification, introspection, and (of course) rabbit trail-chasing, they r...

With a new miniGomer (or Fun-Sized Gomer) on the way, the dudes conduct their very first interview in this, the 10th Minisode of the Sub-Five Strive.  Angie from the Marathon Training Academy Podcast joins Steven and Anthony (and Erin!) to talk all things pregnant and running –  late night cravings, morning sickness, proper pacing, and sympathy weight-gain. Maybe its TWIIIIIIIINS! Don’...

Now that you know Anthony’s big news, Part II of Episode 10 brings you some big news from Steven – it has to do with something he doesn’t wear that most people do.  Ok, it’s not as big as Part I, but he gave it a shot. The only undergarment Kramer will endorse. Part 2 is all about True or Faux, two (or five) new Easter-themed Songs to Run To, and the Week in Preview, with s...

It’s Anthony’s 32nd birthday, but that’s not the Big News.  Steven has been breaking his training run speed goals left and right, but that’s not the Big News either.  And this episode got so long we had to split it into two Big Parts.  But no, THAT’S not even the Big News.  You’ll just have to wait through the (actually, pretty enlightening) Weeks in Review to h...

The Gomernation is talking, and the Gomers are listening – and discussing.  Join them as they confer about the Nation’s thoughts on podcasts and audiobooks, running in a straight line or in a circle, forward-thinking or being in the now, and dogs.  And even though no one in the nation mentioned Top Chef, it sure seems to come up a lot. I think we’re all in agreement that your Pad...

Spring has sprung, and change is in the air – including an unusual amount of semi-educated running talk from the unlikeliest of semi-experts:  the Gomers.  What’s happened exactly is unclear, but listen as they blame everything from their gadgets to their training program to actual miles put in – whatever it is, it’s kind of weird.  But not as weird as Alan Silvestri’...

The Listener Feedback has POURED in these past couple weeks, and the Gomers are lovin it.  Join them as they discuss running, with a tangent here and there:  sports bras and running skirts, bamboo socks and sticks covered with lube, Eagle Scout near-misses and zombie-killing dogs. Man’s best zombie-killing friend. Our excuse is that since this is a Listerner-Feedback-centric show, it’s...

The Gomers’ training is really kicking into high gear, and they are here to talk about the ups and downs (pun intended) of speedwork:  How hard do I swing my arms?  Did that lady just see me dry-heave?  Am I allowed to faint?  And, most importantly, is this treadmill possessed? Plus the guys debut a new weekly section that’s very forward thinking. Great Scott! Another excuse to geek ou...

The Minisodes here in the second half of Season Three have a new focus:  The Gomernation!  Monday Survey Results and Listener Feedback are the name of the game, and the Gomers have a new way of discussing the Nation’s thoughts and questions:  Feedback of the Week. Each Minisode they’ll choose an email, Facebook post, and twogomers.com comment that stood out to them and discuss.  This w...

It’s been a long cold February, but the Gomers are back to warm things up!  Join the guys as they think back on their hiatuses (hiati?), the disciplines they’ve developed and risks they’ve taken.  And did someone order some Gomer Tangents?  Try iPad 2 chat, Oscar thoughts, Spring TV talk, and quite possibly the most timely Listener Feedback celebrity impression ever. Duh, I was W...

This is as close as the Gomers get to disobeying their wives – a quick Minisode updating the Nation on their new Marathon training schedule even though they’re supposed to be observing radio silence.  Oh well, while they’re at it, why not a little Oscar chat?  Oh hold on, what did they think of the Superbowl (ads)?  And does Conan’s sister really look all that much like Con...

It’s the midpoint of the Gomers’ 3rd season, and they have a big midpointy announcement to make about the upcoming Marathon.  But before that, they take a look at their more…ahem… critical reviews, and decide together how to react and, ultimately, respond to them.  Not to worry, though, it’s not all serious work – the guys are more than willing to go off on a ta...

It’s Gomer2’s turn to report on his race, and he’s a little confused about how he feels about this, his third Half Marathon and PR.  Hear as Gomer1 grills him for the details – the ups, downs, and in-betweens.  Did he meet his goal?  Is he feeling good?  Did any mantras work?  Was there enough toilet paper?  Never fear, Nation, all your questions will be answered! The best...

Long time, no hear!  In Part 2 of Episode 5, Anthony regales us with tales of the Disney World Half Marathon – from starting fireworks to motivational army men to run-ins with running celebrities, this race had it all.  And oh yeah, a pretty sweet PR to start the New Year right. This week’s Monday Survey:  What is your favorite race distance?  The Gomers shared theirs, let’s hear...

The New Year is still on the minds of the Gomers, and they spend a significant portion of the first part of Episode 5 discussing it.  Including these questions: Should resolutions be vague or specific?  Should you set the bar unreachably high, or comfortably low?  And what is the name of that one lady who keeps saying inspiring things in Grumpy Old Men? Yeah, that’s her back there! This firs...

2011 really snuck up on the Gomers, and they are both realizing that their half-marathons are closer than they thought.  But that doesn’t mean they won’t take the time to do some Christmas in Review (specifically what they GOT for Christmas), discuss New Years’ Resolutions from the Gomernation, and review G1’s upcoming race.  And, you know, like, read some reviews. See you...

Merry Christmas Nation! Here it is, the Gomer’s 4th of our “4 downloads in 5 days” for you, our faithful listeners.  In this we present to you a Gomer Rewind, remembering our dissertations on the correlation of A Christmas Story and National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation, and the similarities of the Home Alone Score to the Nutcracker. But WAIT, don’t just think this is...

The definition of bittersweet:  the Gomer’s final official Christmas episode of the year.  Don’t worry, though, there’s plenty to get your red-and-white-striped juices going before they’re done, including a super-sized Gomer’s Favorite Things, lots of Christmas Songs to Run To (the good and the bad), and a shocking realization concerning the holiday of choice at Arizo...

It’s the final official Christmas episode, but of course the guys couldn’t fit it all in one download.  So please enjoy Part I, where the Gomers discuss their (not too great) weeks of running, the shelf-life of Home Alone, and whether or not they’ve kept their Chipotle-related commitments. All we want for Christmas… In Part 1 you’ll hear the Christmas Intro, their Wee...

Auto-tuning!  8-part vocal/bassoon harmony!  Sub sandwiches!  It’s the Two Gomers Run a Marathon: The Sub-Five Strive Jingle!  Enjoy this 1rst (and probably only) cut, and Happy Running!

Ok, ok, so at over 45 minutes, this isn’t exactly a Minisode.  But the Gomers figured it would be ok, you know, since it’s Christmas and all.  Plus, they need that extra time for all the free advertising they’ve decided to do. Full-body drying thingy, please! Join the Gomers for their Weeks in Review, Songs to Run To, Gomers’ Favorite Things, and Listener Feedback…all...

Extra downloadable content from the Gomers?  It must be getting close to Christmas!  Enjoy this fun news about the podcast! Happy Running!

Have you been good little girls and boys this year?  You have?  Well, here’s your present:  The first of three Christmas episodes from the Gomers!  And the holiday cheer comes hard and fast – you won’t need to wait but 2 minutes before a lively Christmas-movie discussion hits your ears. That’s right, we said CLASSIC. Plus, there’s a brand new Christmas segment this ye...

In this not-so-mini-Minisode, there’s four things the Gomers want to tell you about: 1.  Anthony’s concerto. 2.  Their love/hate for the new Harry Potter movie. Spend some more time in that tent, why dontcha? 3.  Some stories from the Gomer Thanksgiving Challenge. 4.  The new jingle. Enjoy, and Happy Running! Oh, p.s.  If you want to read Steven’s scathing, spoiler-ridden review...

Now that the Gomers are fully into their 3rd season, guess what?  There’s more distractions, injuries, and weird sicknesses than you can shake a bassoon at.  But that’s not stopping them – in fact, they’ve both been having pretty great weeks – not counting the blood in the urine, of course. Didn't want to post a picture of Runner's Hematuria, so here's a p...
