Episode 5-491 Alien Contact with Fran Tabor
Hello my running friends.
Today we’ve got a great show for you. I speak with Fran Tabor, who is one of those brilliantly independent thinkers – a real renaissance person. We discussed Alien first contact and lots of other stuff. I think you’ll enjoy it.
In section one I’m going to talk through some of the responses that I have been giving to the “Runners Loving Running” Facebook group – because I decided to take a new tack. Instead of ridiculing the questions for being absurd, I decided to give thoughtful answers.
It’s ‘tack’ by the way. T A C K. Not ‘tact’. Tack is a sailing term that means the direction you are going. When you change tack in a sailboat, the captain yells ‘Coming about’ and then the mainsail boom swings around to catch the wind and knocks you overboard – setting up the meet cute or the humorous plot element in any movie involving sailboats.
I talk about my new audio-book adventure in section two.
Because the interview is of a normal size, and I have room.

493. Episode 5-493 – Interview Les is Made
39:38||Season 5, Ep. 493Episode 5-493 – Interview Les is Made Hello my running friends. This week I present the last of the repurposed interview that I did originally for my other show “After the Apocalypse”. This is a friendly talk with Led for his Les is Made podcast – and fittingly he is really interested in talking about running. I had planned to write an article that dove deeper into some of the frequently asked questions. But, I’m out of day today and I figure something is better than nothing. I had another satirical piece on how women running together have an entirely different conversation than men talking to each other – based on my admittedly biased observations. But, alas there is only so much gas in the tank and I have miles to go before I sleep. So – My friends, I’ll give you an update on my training – drop the interview and slink off stage left in a embarred shuffle. My training is going great. Within the last 7 days I have completed a nice 12 mile trail run, a 100K bike and capped it off with a 100 mile bike ride with my buddies up to Saco Maine yesterday. Everything went well. We got perfect weather. Nobody crashed. No flat tires. And we made the trip, with breaks in just about 10 hours. My second goal of weight loss is going well also. I poked my nose under the 173 pound flap of the tent this week and with my training load increasing it should continue to trend down. I also finished the last additional chapter for the first novel in my apocalypse series – so getting very close to the end of the editing process and having a finished manuscript to kick out the door like a grown child who has tarried too long. Funny story – I actually brought that final chapter to my new Monday morning writers group for a read this past week as well. I was scared like a little kid having to stand in front of the class. But, they liked it. And gave me some good feedback. All is not lost. I grabbed the race director of the Mamba 100 for an interview and I’ll shove that up for the next show. You know me. Why read the race web site when you can just talk to the race director? I was a little worried about running a 100k in the trails in the dark. But he put my mind at ease. The course is in a very gentle trail system right in a park in the center of Memphis. That’s the next adventure! So – my friends. This is it for commentary,. I won’t be back at the end. Stay in touch. Wish me well. And I will see you out there. Les is MadeBy Les MadewellMy name is Leslie and I am a photographer. I have a few good stories to share and would love to shared them to the world. I try to have models and people I have work with one with me as much as I can. I hope I am at least not boringhttps://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/lesismade492. Episode 5-492 - Interview George Allen Miller
56:45||Season 5, Ep. 492Episode 5-492 – Publishing Sci-Fi George Allen Miller Hello my running friends. This week I’m continuing my streak of double dipping on the interviews from my other podcast and presenting you with George Allen Miller. He’s an author and we have a nice, tight chat about the creative process and some aspects of publishing and our favorite Sci-Fi. So - if you are one of those double dippers who already listened to my After the Apocalypse podcast you can fast forward through the interview section, but I will also have some unique content of you as well In section one I’ll continue my Runner FAQ conversation. In section two I’ll do an old-man nutrition rant.490. Episode 5-490 - Stoned Genius
01:58:21||Season 5, Ep. 490Episode 5-490 – Stoned GeniusHello my running friends. Hey! 6 new episodes in a row. But I am cheating by re-tasking interviews I did for my other show. So if you are a listener to my After the Apocalypse feed, this is the same interview and you’ve already heard it. I will stick a quick article into section one with my thoughts on what to drink on run and hydration in general. I follow this annoying Facebook group called ‘runners loving running’ that has these really dumb beginner running questions and I though it would be fun to answer some of them. This a long interview. 1:30. So you have been warned. It is me being interviewed by Rodney the Stoned Genius on his podcast, named, interestingly enough “the Stoned Genius” and he was nice enough to share the audio with me. On with the show. Section Onehttps://runrunlive.com/what-should-i-drinkFeatured InterviewThat’s what I love about podcasting. Any curious soul can find and connect with their tribe. If like what he’s doing you can find more at the Stoned Genius Podcast.Show description: The Stoned Genius" is a podcast that blends humor and cannabis culture, exploring a wide range of topics through the lens of genius enjoying marijuana. Hosted by Ro Martin the show features discussions, interviews, and even comedic skits, all infused with a lighthearted and often irreverent tone.489. Episode 5-489 – Richard Anderson Interview Evolution to the Void
01:05:10||Season 5, Ep. 489Hello my running friends. Now, I see you… you’re shaking your head. 5 in a row? What are you doing Chris? I just got around to removing the RunRunLive podcast from my old phone and here you are dropping conten t again? How can we trust you again? You’ve put us through so much. Yup – I’m on fire folks. I even baked up some new bumpers. Besides I am using the interviews for both my podcasts so there are economies of scale.488. Episode 5-488 – Roger Smith Interview Robotics and AI
58:11||Season 5, Ep. 488Hello my running friends. Here we go – 4 episodes in a row! I have actually gotten messages from people commenting on their surprise and delight, well surprise anyhow, that I have been able to keep it up. One of my long-standing tricks is to have an interview. This is also why there are so many interview-based podcasts. It’s a great way to leverage other people’s knowledge and energy for your own benefit – I bit like a parasitic worm or a vampire. Insert rim shot sound effect. But – seriously folks – today we have a chat with Roger Smith. Roger is a scientist and science fiction writer. I’m doing a series of interviews of scientists and science fiction writers. If you also listen to my apocalypse podcast you’ll see some duplication. I’m using the same interviews over there. The difference will be podcast specific content, like the intro and outro, and here, in the RunRunLive podcast I’ll sneak in some short articles about some running topics.487. Episode 5-487 – The Adam Tinkoff Show!
01:02:13||Season 5, Ep. 487Hello my running friends. Here we go – 3 episodes in a row! On today’s show we’ve got the recording of when I was on Adam Tinkoff’s show a few weeks ago. This is a long interview…well, not really an interview, more of a conversation. It’s too long for me to edit out the slow bits, like when Adam is trying to get his AI to work. You’ll just have to muddle through. But we do have some good conversations about community and we do reconnect with some old friends from the running community and we do some reminiscing. Since this is so long I won’t stick anything else in here, but I’ll come back at the end with an update. On with the show!486. Episode 5-486 - Nutrition with Dr. Rachel
46:23||Season 5, Ep. 486Episode 5-5486 – Nutrition with Dr. RachelHello my running friends. Here we go – 2 episodes in a row! On today’s show we talk to my nutrition coach Rachel. I’ve worked off an on with Rachel for many years. She recently earned her doctorate and she is looking for new clients. She gave me a good excuse to do another chat. It all works out. You get another show and I get to catch up with Dr. Rachel. I’ll talk a little about my nutrition journey in section one. In section two I’ll talk a bit about the scary and fun world of artificial intelligence. On with the show!485. Episode 5-5485 – Nate Talks About Parenting
44:33||Season 5, Ep. 485Episode 5-5485 – Nate Talks About ParentingHello my running friends. And so, the universe finds us together again. It is a fine Monday morning at the end of April bleeding into May and the fulsome fecundity of mother nature bursts free from the oppressive bonds of winter. The birds are singing, the rabbits are munching, the flowers show their timid faces in the new dawn of longer days and happier times. And here we are.
