Episode Summary
Aaron and Devin return with their most positive update episode yet. Devin shares his City of Lakes Half Marathon experience and final weeks of Twin Cities Marathon training, complete with his questionable fettuccine alfredo fueling strategy. Aaron brings encouraging health news - testosterone therapy is working, he's lifting weights consistently, practicing intermittent fasting, and actually got back on a mountain bike with witness Colin Jaworski.
The conversation shifts to parenting philosophy as both navigate new school year challenges. Aaron's son August has maintained a 22-day fishing streak that's unexpectedly teaching patience and providing family reset time. Both hosts question whether modern parents are being too permissive, treating children like peers rather than kids who need guidance and structure.
