MRI-okay?

Another common hospital test is detailed in my story of my procedure earlier this week.  I know many people who have claustrophobia and fear of tight spaces might be hesitant to get this test, so as in my Colonoscopy episodes, I want to dispel some of the anxiety about MRIs.

INTERVIEW - Artie O'Daly - Bad Boy series - Part 1

Sweeps Period has begun! In this first episode, I have an awesome interview with a very busy Hollywood actor/writer/producer/director/editor. His name is Artie O'Daly and there is a good chance he has guest appeared on a tv show that you have seen. In this first of a two-part interview, Artie and I talk about his connection to Gilmore Girls (one of my all-time favorite shows) and he tells stories of his appearance on that show and how it came about that one of the Gilmore Girls stars appeared on Artie's hit TV series 'Bad Boy' (currently on YouTube). He is a fascinating guy and I know you will enjoy this two-part interview.

Next up in Sweeps Period will be the second part of my 'Your Personal Trainer' series. We will talk more about food and also some basic exercises to get started with at home. Following that, will be another series of episodes with Sgt. Ron where he tells us more stories of his days as a gay man in the military.

Sweeps Period is going to have some great shows. Subscribe so you don't miss an episode when it comes out. Thanks guys !  ~Joey

How Do We Hold The Senior Gay Community Together ?

As we slowly start putting society back together as we all get vaccinated for Covid-19, the Senior Gay Community is something we all need to think about and work at sustaining.  Many older gay men have been isolated during these past 13 months and are now rightfully feeling hesitant about re-joining social situations where crowds might soon be gathering. How will our older LGBTQ brothers and sisters still get together for much needed friendships and reunions, and what will be the lasting community be like?

Things To Do And Say To Make Yourself Old

We all are getting older, and maybe we are becoming our parents in our thoughts and habits. Are we as Gay Seniors just tired of the world of younger people? Are we starting to say the very things our parents would say that we swore we would never become? Are we starting to border on being that grouchy, bitter old man?

Your Personal Trainer - Part 1

Today I am starting a new series that I'm calling Your Personal Trainer.  I often hear from guys that have basic workout and nutrition questions. I know hiring a Personal Trainer can be an expensive proposition, especially with the fees that will probably have to be charged by Trainers to compensate for all the lost work and income due to the Covid-19 Pandemic. 

So, with that in mind, I thought running this series can be beneficial to those that wish they could have a Personal Trainer to give them basic information and to do what Trainers do best; Motivate and Encourage you, as you go along. Obviously without having the option to work with you in person, it will limit how some of this training will have to be. But, I have faith that the information and me kicking your ass a bit will help you at least get started eating healthier and getting you to move! I will give you some basic at home exercises to do down the road a bit, and there will also be more advanced exercises that will have to be done in a gym, for those of you desiring these programs.

So, no matter your experience, from absolute beginners (my favorite guys!) to the more advanced training, there will be something for everyone. I truly hope you enjoy these episodes and that you will participate so we all can get these Pandemic Pounds off so we can enjoy a beautiful, active Summer. My best to all of you!  ~Joey

Life Enhancing Habits - Part 1

This is part 1 of a 2-part series on 10 Habits that can help give you a heathy life as you age. In this first part, I give an overview, some necessary disclaimers and talk in depth about the first 3 Habits. The remaining 7 will be discussed in the final installment of this series, coming in a couple of weeks.

The main content of this episode is from a draft that I had back from the first year of this show. It was never used. Due to it being done 6 years ago, the audio is not the best as I was working with my first microphone and studio set-up. I currently use my 3rd set-up for recording new episodes so there are big differences.      

Thank you for listening !

INTERVIEW - Matt Mercurio - A Client Of Joey's From 25 Years Ago Speaks Out - Part 1

This is Part 1 of a fun conversation that I had with Matt Mercurio, an ex-client and best friend of mine from 25 years ago. Matt was one of the first clients that I had when I moved my training business into Boston gay gyms.

Matt discusses how we met and what it was like having me as his Personal Trainer. We are completely honest in this episode, and maybe I revealed more than I should have. But, I try to be as honest as possible with you guys, and this is an example of that !

Mistakes Are NOT Mistakes

Sometimes when we get older, especially if we are single and alone, we ruminate on past embarrassing situations or errors that we have made. I wanted to explain my philosophy on how I look at past problems. I talk about how I grew up with a dying mother and how that shaped my life over all these years. I hope this might be some use to you.
