RESTAURANTS 101 

  • Vinnie and Anna have surprise guest Leona (aka, “Lois”) on the show today. (2:00)
    • After a bit of discussion about music and doppelgängers, Vinnie asks Leona a couple of questions. (15:00)
    • Vinnie has had consults with Leona before, so he asks her for updates on how her exercise is going.
    • He chats with her about Spartan races and gives her a new challenge to go for.
  • The discussion focuses on Restaurants 101, to help you navigate how you can eat while dining out. (21:15)
    • Vinnie gives some blanket statements about eating at restaurants.
    • Anna gives suggestions about various ethnic foods to help you find selections that can be NSNG®.
    • They both make other suggestions of how you can eat to be satisfied, and not feel like you’re “missing out”.
    • Vinnie shares an experience of eating lobster and “butter” at a restaurant. (44:30)
  • They talk about a recent Throwback Thursday photo on Vinnie’s Instagram and youtube. (48:30) 
  • Speaking of Instagram, Anna comments on a recent one from Vinnie’s account that addresses the difficulties of menopause. (52:00)
    • She is appreciative of the acknowledgment as there are a lot of people who just don’t understand the level of challenge it can be.
    • Many women who go through rough menopause don’t even feel like themselves—at all.
    • They will be covering more about menopause in upcoming episodes.

A TRIBUTE

  • Anna and Vinnie share a tribute to Anna’s brother-in-law and previous show guest, George Kolasa. (56:00)
    • George recently passed recently and Anna shares what an inspirational person he has been.
    • George turned his diagnosis into his purpose with the loving support of his partner, Justin (also Anna’s brother-in-law).
    • He was able to fundraise a million dollars for rare cancer research and treatment, at @memorialsloankettering.
