 : Episode 1324 – Anna Vocino joins Vinnie this Monday, and the two talk the amazing features on early episodes of this podcast, how much time podcasting takes up, how to deal with money and friendships, the psyllium lie, hiking, and more.

EARLY PODCAST DAYS

  • This show used to be even MORE uncensored than it is now
  • It got raunchier than it does now
  • We had some awesome guests including Howie Mandel and Ben Greenfield
  • You can, for a super small cost, purchase access to every show we’ve ever posted!
  • One of the women who followed for a long time, who was trying to get pregnant, got pregnant after going NSNG®
  • Going on 7 years now

MONEY AND FRIENDSHIP

  • Vinnie has some friends who are really well off
  • His dog began dying and he had to bail on a couple of friends going to ski slopes
  • He was a little surprised they didn’t offer to cover his small share of the rent/asked for the money right away
    • The real issue is how they asked for the money when his dog was so ill
      • Very short, untimely and didn’t seem compassionate
  • That being said, Vinnie thinks it’s important not to take advantage of your rich friends
  • Even when he goes out with celebrities, he will pay a fair amount of the time
  • Don’t always try to be so exact about what you eat and how much it costs exactly
    • Ex: “well, I had fewer fries than you so that’s $1 less for me”
  • When Anna has a birthday dinner, she pays for her friends who come
    • Many of them don’t know each other, she asks them to come out, so it makes sense to pay for them
  • Be responsible without being too terribly cheap

THE PSYLLIUM LIE

  • Psyllium and psyllium husks are not good for you
  • Like eating the husk of corn
  • You do not need this fiber
  • Another one of these lies that has stolen your good intentions
  • Can actually negatively impact colon health/activity
  • A way for companies to make money – that’s pretty much it
