Episode Details

The back corner of a yoga studio is valuable real estate. Rob learns this when another early bird beats him to his favorite spot—and he has to practice acceptance before class even starts.

Fresh from another survivable yoga sculpt session, Rob rambles through workout reluctance, a school-bus traffic question, gloriously scrambled mythology, and his lifelong connection to Anthony Michael Hall’s movie characters. Somewhere between The Breakfast Club and Weird Science, a real question emerges: How much of who we are comes from the stories we step into?

Also: keeping the fitness streak moving and preparing for a Human Progress podcast conversation about Panic Patrol.

On the agenda:

• Showing up when you really don’t feel like it.
• Losing the yoga turf war and finding another corner.
• Traffic questions and an unauthorized mythology rewrite.
• The movie characters that become models for our own lives.
• Creative progress, podcast nerves, and gratitude for the people who help.
