Podcasts about in this episode john

IN THIS EPISODE: John the Baptist makes some bold claims, but a REALLY important person backs him up!

IN THIS EPISODE: John makes a triumphant, boisterous, MEGA ANNOUCEMENT about Jesus - without even mentioning his name!

We started the show and John was in a full-fledged panic attack. There’s a lot to unpack in this episode and talk through, including “fit-splaining” and a quiz all about BBQ food! A heads up, this was recorded a few weeks before this was released and you may hear some older news stories we talk about. We apologize for the delay in getting these episodes to you and we thank you so much for your patience. Remember, we record these episodes LIVE on Thursdays in our Facebook book. In This Episode: John is in a full-fledged panic attack. John has to go to the doctor’s for the first time since before we all hunkered down into quarantine. John’s new podcast is Out and he now has an outlet for No-Filter John -- beware ;) Want an editor for your podcast? John may be available! Check out Audio Editing Solutions Pop-Ups at Taco Bell — good idea or bad idea? John might look into virtual therapy. Wouldn’t it be great if he got to use his soundboard? Or, even better, if the therapist had a soundboard! Emily is rushing to get her youngest potty trained and, spoiler alert, it will take a while. Have you heard of “Fit-splaining”? Once you know what it is, has it happened to you? Emily brings the Big Fun with a barbecue quiz! Fat’s Not Bad! Sorry all!

In This Episode: John has finally lost his mind and fled New York. Will he come back, ever? It’s not looking good. I have this feeling this will be the first of many more remote Pods. Please, no one think that John HATES New York. He doesn’t HATE it. He just LOVES mountains more. So, respectively, I think you could call that hate but IT’S NOT HATE. Anyway, he has to come back because there are lots of very exciting things coming in the fall and we have much exciting Pod content to bring to the world. OH. MAN. OHHHHHHHHHHHH MAAAAAN. I think it’s no secret that here on POD HELP THE OUTCASTS things can quickly turn into a bromance fest. This week, it happens way earlier in the episode than usual. Enter Matthew Campione and Inspiration Roofing. John’s younger brother Matt, the ‘fit and funny one’, owns a company in Dallas, Texas called Inspiration Roofing. They’ve been hit during the pandemic but luckily, for the most part, they have been able to stay pretty stable due to the nature of what they do. Social distance and roofing happen to compliment on another. He says they have seen a slow down, naturally, because of economy slowing, which is understandable. SPOILER ALERT: REALLY GOOD INSURANCE ADVICE. WE  SHOULD BE CHARGING A SUBSCRIPTION FOR THIS ADVICE. What we love about Matt and his team is that they work with insurance on your behalf. I cannot tell you how many times I’ve had to go back and forth with condo board and insurance and it’s SUCH A PAIN IN MY BLACK ASS. The irony here is that Matt and his Project Manager, Kevin, look weirdly exactly like John and I. Whoa. Weird. Go to website and look. My mind just exploded a bit.

Another week of quarantine and tensions rising. John ended his last episode recording and the rest of his week was a whirlwind of anxiety, sickness and a death scare! But luckily, everyone is OK. Life isn’t easy for many of us, and while staying healthy is important, there’s a lot we’re all juggling. We want to take this opportunity to remind yourself to have grace for yourself and others. Like drive-through? So do we, but we can still make plenty of healthy choices. Watch the LIVE Recording: https://www.facebook.com/John.bukenas/videos/10223381456221596 New to Hate to Weight?

He starts off the episode talking about how getting BBQ turns into a death scare! John’s audio drops are superb! Thank you to our listeners who get a kick out of them and voted on which sound drops have been your favorite! Who else is susceptible to the power of suggestion? John and Emily are. John has some anxiety over not feeling well. And this is after the earlier death scare! Isn’t it weird that you don’t wake up while your fever’s breaking? Only after you’re all sweaty. Anger and frustration can be such a confusing emotion, especially in how people release it. Don’t forget to apologize! We apologize for the delay in getting out episodes — we really appreciate your patience with our episode releases. John is doing his own yoga poses now and made his own yoga playpen. Only 10 minutes a day! Emily’s enjoying getting her vegetables from Mexican food and Taco Bell lately. We love our fast food here at Hate to Weight and over the years, we’ve found that’s not the worst drive-thru food we could get! The Power Bowl is really filling and not too bad! Emily loves Amy’s frozen burritos. Let us know if you’ve had them and which ones you enjoy! Pulled pork sliders with coleslaw, everyone! It’s delicious! We’re all in a state of Decision Fatigue pretty much all the time. Emily put out this theory and you’ll see a Rolling Stone article about it below in the links section. It’s funny that we talked about this weeks ago, but the mask debate apparently doesn’t get old. Speaking of takeout, the Burger King Impossible Whopper is pretty good! Shout-out to Connecticut’s Duchess Restaurants  — they have a great meatless burger, too! #ICantTwitter and #ICantWichYou Emily is done with current events! Why don’t more fast food places have hot dogs? Great #WinningWednesday posts this week! Emily’s session at Livestream For the Cure went great! Spoiler alert: We didn’t do a huge blowout for Episode 100. There was a busy week for current events and we ended up skipping that episode and coming back the following week. Later, Weighters!

Watch the LIVE Recording: https://www.facebook.com/John.bukenas/videos/10223313740288740/ We are starting to focus on making good choices and John is even trying out yoga! We also got a bit carried away with our discussion and we run a little long in this episode. Also, STRONG LANGUAGE ALERT around 55 minutes in — we mark our podcast as explicit anyway, but we want you to know that the C-word is used quite a bit. While we're comfortable saying it, not everyone is comfortable hearing it. We want to be respectful to listeners by giving you an advanced warning if this offends you. When we record this, we are currently in the midst of the Covid-19/coronavirus pandemic. We strive to be as accurate as possible on our podcast, but we are not experts. Please refer to the CDC website guidelines for information or any questions you may have. New to Hate to Weight?

Emily is doing Maintenance Mode and doing her thing in her plateau. She can see her progress but still getting comfortable with her “new” body. We’re transitioning the show to be less about looking at the scale, but more about trying to get healthy. John’s worried about getting “stuffocated” by brisket and corn bread. John’s going back to more compression on his legs and the whooshie pill again. What was the last vegetable you ate? Usually when Emily’s in a funk, she’ll ask herself that. Even though Emily finds she doesn’t have to count calories, she still realizes that eating healthy will make Future-Emily happy. John’s thinking of trying yoga! We have a nice big yoga discussion and Emily geeked out because this is her favorite form of movement. John likes to use this podcast as a form of therapy, Emily uses her journal for the same reason. Being able to hear or see your own words can help you get a lot of clarity into what you truly feel. John’s best form of dealing with the news is to find the humor in it, and then the internet arguments start. We have some great #WinningWednesday posts, and we’re putting some new prompts in the group! Gratitude is the Attitude! Emily became a certified life coach  — and will soon be certified in mindfulness, as well! Dut-dut! We talk a bit about podcast editing and our workflows toward the end. If you ever wondered what podcast editors do, you might enjoy it! We talk about being people pleasers, both in our work and in our own heads with our self-esteem. STRONG LANGUAGE ALERT! If you are offended by the C*** word, around the 55:00-56:30 mark we say it quite a bit. Oh, we get so silly when we’re procrastinating the weigh-in, LOL. Later, Weighters!

Watch the LIVE Recording: https://www.facebook.com/John.bukenas/videos/10223160054606694/ John is wrestling with Impostor Syndrome when thinking about starting a new podcast and we discuss the reactions to Adele’s stunning weight-loss and the picture she posted on Instagram. Emily is gearing up to go into maintenance mode for a while with her weight-loss and starting to reprioritize in her life.

In This Episode: John is getting ready to start a new podcast and finds himself with Impostor Syndrome. Adele’s Instagram photo she posted recently for her 32nd birthday showed a dramatic weight-loss and we talk a bit about the reactions. John-spiration — “Just because someone else is praised for losing weight doesn’t mean you should be ashamed for not.” John gets motivated by an Inner Drill Sergeant sometimes. What do you think? Are you more motivated by negativity or positivity? Emily has a lot of Marketing (Conspiracy) Theories if you ever get her started on why something or someone is trending. John’s new organizational system is going well! Emily is re-evaluating her own scheduling system and routine, but she still likes to get everything out of her head on paper and work off of that every day. She has also realized losing weight for her is not a priority. She still enjoys Intermittent Fasting and Yoga, but feels like focusing on other areas in life and putting weight-loss into maintenance mode. This isn’t her breaking up with the podcast, BTW! Maintenance Mode is HARD! Emily looks at pictures of Target aisles because she misses it! LOL! Facebook is just like a scrolling tabloid all the time! Emily closes Facebook as soon as she gets angry. She hasn’t been on very often anymore. You’re never going to change someone’s opinion on the Internet. And the best part is, because we can’t go out, it’s not like we even need to see them! Great job everyone! Yay for the #WinningWednesday posts! Emily never took a lot of Before Shots, and definitely none without a lot of clothes on. Later, Weighters!

This episode was recorded in the beginning of April 2020 for context. We're still getting used to the temporary new-normal of staying indoors and self-quarantining for our own safety. It requires us to learn more planning skills that, luckily, we have already been working on with our own diets. But not like this. In fact, Emily has taken to calling the combination of this + PMS "The Season of Our Discontent". Good thing we still have our sense of humor, although John has deemed himself an Anxetiy-Riddled Hypochondriac Germaphobe. We talk a lot about our current situations, which as you may know if you’re listening to this around the time it comes out, is the COVID-19 social distancing stuff.

In This Episode: John starts off the show with a clip of a toddler upset about how she can’t get all her favorite foods and the tantrum that ensues. And that’s pretty much how John’s reacting. We find our habits have changed from everything that’s going on with the coronavirus pandemic. Don’t take vitamins on an empty stomach! Nope! John now identifies as an Anxiety-Riddled Hypochondriac Germaphobe. Do you have triggers for your eating or other habits? That’s one thing we’ve really worked on identifying. We’re also learning how to plan our shopping and eating so we can make our groceries stretch. Emily is celebrating two years of doing Intermittent Fasting! Two years = 90 pounds down = 8 sizes down! It’s weird that this is starting to become a new normal for everyone. Gross-out alert: Both John and Emily admit we both enjoy pizza that’s been left out over refrigerated. Eek! Emily has some morbid curiosity. We apologize in advance. Thank goodness for the #WinningWednesdays posts! We can always use some good news. Thank you for all the memes and affirmations!

Yay! Emily is back this week! And she’s working on getting back to her own self lately. A head’s up. This episode was recorded March 12, 2020. At the time of recording, we were just beginning social distancing and learning about the seriousness of COVID-19. Please bear with us while we try to find a balance between entertainment and sensitivity to the topic. While Emily was coming back from her trip, John has been hunkering down, preparing to do a lot more Dude Cooking at home instead of getting drive through. New to Hate to Weight?

In This Episode: John doesn’t like being away from Emily for two weeks. Sorry everyone for the sound on my end! It seems I used my computer mic, ugggh! — Emily. Let’s encourage John to do more solo episodes! John explains Discord to Emily. Are you on Discord? What do you think? Emily is having a bit of an identity crisis when it comes to social media, so she’s becoming more introspective and playing with her private Instagram. Would you allow a video of yourself dancing online? Emily loved it! Emily has also found that from her daily yoga, she now enjoys dancing! And pretending to know how to dance. I promise, y’all, I am an Introvert! I take a looong time to warm up to people. Podcasters are the best people! We did stupid stuff when we were 18, right?! Emily left her phone in an Uber. If this has never happened to you, check out how she got it back! Emily used the Hate to Weight Voicemail Line to get her phone back. John talks about an episode of The Joe Rogan Experience with an infectious disease specialist. John’s anxiety is up and we both know for us anxiety is an overeating trigger. How are you when it comes to hearing symptoms? We have both realized we hate cooking. We should have named this podcast Hate to Cook. Seriously! Home Ec taught Emily how to follow a recipe, but she can’t come up with a recipe. Emily is looking forward to watching Salt Fat Acid Heat. Have you seen it? Was the movie Outbreak used in your high school class to talk about viruses and how they spread? That’s how Emily learned. Please do your research, everyone! Great job with everyone’s winning Wednesdays! Keep ‘em coming! Delivery is dangerous! “Give me a carrot? It better be during a commercial!” — Past-Emily, who wouldn’t eat crunchy food because then she couldn’t hear the TV John is starting to realize he doesn’t want to get bariatric surgery, but he’s still keeping to his dedication to losing weight.

We had a great discussion in our Facebook group thinking about the lifestyle changes we make to lose weight versus what we are planning on doing once we hit our goal weight and need to maintain. John also had a bout with food poisoning and Emily has shifted her whole schedule to mornings so we're both a little out of our comfort zone. New to Hate to Weight?

We talked on last week’s episode about proactive mode versus reactive mode during the day. Emily exploded an egg in her microwave before coming on the show. Apparently, 25 seconds is too long. When you hear us referring to others, it’s our chat room while we record live in the Hate to Weight Facebook group! Deborah posted a question in our group -— how do you balance what you’ll do with your diet versus what you’ll be doing for the rest of your life? What alcohol can you never have again? Emily got a recipe for Easy Italian Chicken Sandwiches and made sandwiches in the Instant Pot (on the Slow Cooker setting) We have our own little recipe section! Should this be an ongoing thing? Our Hate to Cook segment, lol! If you’re going to drink Coke, get it from McDonald’s! There’s a link below about why it tastes so good. Fantastic Winning Wednesday posts this week! Thanks everyone who contributes! Any win is fun to celebrate! This week’s Johnspiration -— “The worst part is throwing a hissy fit and giving up.” We’ve lost 131 pounds between the two of us! WOW!

He started the podcast doing keto and intermittent fasting, but is now gearing up for bariatric surgery (probably) later this summer. Emily Prokop is a podcast editor and consultant from Connecticut. She has been doing Intermittent Fasting since April 2018 and has lost about 70 pounds. She started with 16:8 and is now doing 18:6.

We both have planning on the brain this week and talk about Proactive Mode vs. Reactive Mode when it comes to our diets, businesses, and life. John has already had a morning! And he even has a realization halfway through the episode and remembers to breathe. He also wants to create a #Lifing Toolbox. Emily changes her schedule and has some adjusting to do. This may or may not be affecting her weight. We’ll see! We also talk a lot about the importance of planning, including how we plan. Emily walks us through her weekly and daily planning and journaling routine, as well. “I can’t wait to miss my kids!”  — Emily New to Hate to Weight?

She has been doing Intermittent Fasting since April 2018 and has lost about 70 pounds. She started with 16:8 and is now doing 18:6. In This Episode: John has already had a morning! John has adjusted his Eating Window for his Intermittent Fasting to One Meal a Day. Emily’s tip: Follow hashtags for the diet you’re doing on Instagram and Twitter so you get inspiration throughout the day. We can’t do math on a podcast! Our usual joke is 2+2=Chicken (Emily wants you to know she was once a math tutor, she swears!) What is your moment of #ImNotEvenSorry? Post it in the group or tag us if you’re following us on social media. John realizes he’s in Reactive Mode all the time! If you’re reading this, take a deep breath! It’ll feel good, we promise ;) We start talking about how we organize ourselves during the day. Emily is very Writey-Downey, are you? We know we do so much better when we set up a plan, even if we end up having to throw it out the window if something happens. John walks us through how his brain lies to him — can you relate? We talk a lot about planning in this episode and different methods, including writing things down and a deep look at Emily’s weekly and daily writing/planning routines. “Limited Time” gets us every time! Emily has realized that her toddler turns her brain to mush by the end of the day and has to adjust her whole schedule. Emily’s porn is counting down to when preschool begins, for sure. She’s going to bed earlier and waking up earlier, when she can have time to herself to plan before anyone wakes up and puts her in reactive mode. We both realize we need to find a release that’s not food. John needs a Lifing Toolbox! 33:06 Emily breaks down her morning pages and how she plans her day. (Thanks for the question, Craig!) She starts with Morning Pages: 3 pages of freewriting, from the book “The Artist’s Way” by Julia Cameron; Then she does a to-do list in a bullet journal style, but separates it into three sections: Self-Care, Work, and Home & Family. Thanks to the Business Fabulous Podcast for giving me the idea to put stickers in my notebook! - Emily Emily can’t wait to miss her kids! We have some AMAZING #WinningWednesday posts! Do you have an audio drama or storytelling podcast you like? Let John know! John’s therapist says food addiction is the slowest, more painful way to kill yourself. Wow! It’s so sad and true! Emily has been doing daily yoga for more than a year now! John is so quotable! In case you’re new to the show, when Emily refers to Shark Week, she’s referring to her period. Later, Weighters!

Welcome to our new listeners and our new members in the Hate to Weight Discussion Group on Facebook! We’ve seen a few new faces in the group and we’re always excited when you can join us for the live show. No matter where we are in our weight-loss journey, it seems we are constantly testing and adjusting. John’s schedule plus the diuretic he’s supposed to take wreaks havoc on his eating window with Intermittent Fasting. And Emily had a day of Emotional Triggers that would have sent her into a binge-eating tailspin otherwise. And we had a lot of interaction in the chatroom this week, which we always love and appreciate! “One bad day doesn’t make a bad week.”  — Annette from our Facebook Group in the Live Chat!

She has been doing Intermittent Fasting since April 2018 and has lost about 70 pounds. She started with 16:8 and is now doing 18:6. In This Episode: John’s trying to get more steps in and is sore today. Welcome to our new listeners! We kind of throw you into the deep end at the beginning of this episode as we explain why we call Shark Week what it is. So, if you are offended by women’s menstruation, turn away now. And while Emily had a day of a bunch of triggers, she realized that after 80 episodes, she finally has the mindset not to run to food! John is testing and adjusting his eating window when it comes to Intermittent Fasting. BUT! He realizes that he doesn’t have to shame himself anymore. Yay! John had a bad recipe experience and we are determined to find a way to enjoy cooking. Emily tried InstaCart for the first time and we got to avoid the Big Kid Toy Aisle of Aldi. John gives us some more Dude Cooking ideas and we want to know, what is the food you can’t make for yourself? Fun Tip: At the beginning of the year, go through your pantry and it’s easy to find the cans and containers that have expired. John JUST realized that Chia Pets come from Chia Seeds! “You DON’T throw out Ferrero Rocher, you just don’t.” It’s always interesting when we have to explain our diets to people. We both really love the science behind Intermittent Fasting and we talk a bit about it. We have more resources over at HatetoWeight.com. So many great #WinningWednesday Posts!

Emily tries so hard for a pun … it does not go well. We refer to Emily’s very first podcast, Classy Little Podcast. John is jamming to Janet. (Miss Jackson, if you’re nasty.) Back in the day, John was Funky Cold Jamingo. Do you have an air fryer? What do you think? Taco Bell, what is going on with your menu? You don’t need chicken! Do you pick a word of the year? John’s for 2020 is CONTROL, Emily’s is BALANCE. Emily cannot rap. Ugh. It’s embarrassing that she tried. Emily is COLD! All the time! Emily thinks she has a fear of success … but is it really fear of failure? Dr. John is in!

John’s back this week and we have a bit of catching up to do. John’s switching up his diet to gluten-free and working on focusing on just one meal at a time. Emily has discovered Wafflefulls and has had an inhuman number of them in the last few weeks. “It's one meal at a time. Make good choices and if you don't make good choices, you get a chance to the next meal. You get a chance to do it again.” — JOHNSPIRATION New to Hate to Weight?

Try it! All your friends are doing it! Johns a bit of a Grinch when it comes to Christmas. Did you know? Both John and Emily have dealt with some depression lately and we’re working through using food as our crutch and really examining why we choose food as a vice. Sometimes, it’s a way to make us feel as ugly and gross on the outside as we feel on the inside. Do you have a good chili recipe for John to try? You can email it to hatetoweight@gmail.com OR call it in on our voicemail and we’ll play it on the show: 760-946-6464 (760-WINNING).

We also come up with our dream Wafflefulls: A breakfast one and a low-carb variety with mashed cauliflower. Brickbox, just let us know when you’d like to come on as a sponsor ;) Emily has temporarily solved her clothing dilemma of being tired of shopping for clothes and having to throw them out when she loses more weight: she’s buying the same $6 shirts and $10 legging 2-packs from Walmart until her weight settles. Zuckerberg closet, here I come! John, if you’re reading these show notes, stop scratching your legs! As much as Emily loves her Wafflefulls, it’s important to note that it’s just a phase and this won’t consume her life or cause her to throw her diet completely away. “I’m not even sorry!” OUR BIG NEWS: Thank you to everyone who nominated Hate to Weight for the Discover Pods Awards! Only a few more hours from when this episode drops that you can vote for us in the Health & Fitness category!

Do you ever find yourself numbing in motherhood? Motherhood is hard and there are many ways we can attempt to cope that numb our senses and don't allow us to fully heal from the pain in our lives. In this episode, we are discussing why we numb, how we numb and how to overcome so that we can be truly free.  IN THIS EPISODE: John 16:33 Isaiah 63:9 2 Corinthians 1:3-5 Psalm 34:18 QUESTIONS TO ASK YOURSELF: What pain are you numbing? What are you using to numb your pain? Has the thing you use to numb with really helped you? Do you have good, positive feelings associated with what you are using to numb with that perhaps you need to disassociate with? CONNECT WITH BRAVE MOMS: website | instagram | facebook

John W. Love Jr. is a surreal apparition of a being who creates multi-sensory experiences that invite participants into a world of Yes. He is an interdisciplinary literary and performance artist. His work is as "deliciously complex, circuitous, textual, and contextual as his own nappy hair." He tells stories that are earthen and fantastical. His installations delight and confound. He smears boundaries because "definitions all fit like a fat man in a toddler's big girl dress."  John is a poet, an actor, a dancer, a sculptor, a director and a teller of tales. In his stories characters burn blue. He is a recipient of the Arts & Sciences McColl Award in recognition of artistic excellence and a Rasmuson Foundation Individual Artist residency.  He is a North Carolina Artist Council Artist Fellow and a Guggenheim Foundation Fellow. His work has brought him to Sweden, Germany, France and points beyond. His insights are flavors in the mind. This episode is perfect for anyone interested in the life-affirming funkiness of a daring interdisciplinary mind and the intentions and expressions of a love warrior mystical being. IN THIS EPISODE John shares the beautifully absurd and wonderfully ridiculous nature of defining himself and his objection to lines of demarcation. He discusses the elements that make up his art and the influence of his meditative practice on his performances and installations. He explains what he means by 'rescuing narrative.' He describes one of his signature performance and installation works and the role salt as a spice played in it and the return of all things to the Source. John talks about several of his characters from Neequa or She Who Would Be King to Roscoe 'The Eggplant' Takimoto to The Perpetually Pregnant Man. He explains the world of Yes, the correct posture for living, and when 'no' is appropriate. He responds to the idea that he and his characters are intertwined and that how he presents himself could very well be a character he has written. He shares whether the responses of others to his work matters to him. John talks about how much of his art is flirtation, how much is consummation, and the sensuality of his work. He reflects on the rewards and constraints of fellowships and recognitions, the yumminess of his applications, and what he refuses to do as an artist seeking support. He reacts to what makes anything art and the power he sees in his own work. John shares what Meryl Streep, Bill T. Jones and Bjork have in common. He describes himself as a young person and what his younger self would recognize and be surprised by his current self. John reads a poem of his called 'Early Morning Ritual.' He responds to rapid-fire questions that he composed that reveals the temperature of his mind, what makes him cry, and the sexiest tool in his arsenal. After the conversation, host Mark Peres adds a personal word that begins this way, "When I hear David talk about cities and memory and song, I'm reminded of the poem Chicago by Carl Sandburg..."
