odcast Summary — another-bad-word
Tombo goes back to the doctor—and finds out the issue isn’t just thyroid numbers, testosterone, or “getting older”… it’s that his insides are dirty.
This episode is a gritty, honest look at aging, fatigue, and why you can’t “pill” your way out of a body that’s gummed up by toxins, stress, and the Standard American Diet. Tombo unpacks his latest lab work, why “normal” isn’t the same as “optimal,” and the frustration of seeing big numbers on paper while still feeling like a dead battery in real life.
Then comes the punchline (and the problem): the doc recommends a cleanse—a word Tombo admits feels like a curse word all by itself. But this time he’s desperate enough to commit, and he walks through what he’s doing, what it costs, what he had to give up (RIP coffee, booze, sugar, bacon, eggs…), and what the detox crash felt like—headaches, exhaustion, and the full “cold turkey” reckoning.
But here’s the twist: around day 10, things start shifting. His breathing improves, energy begins coming back, and he realizes the system can’t run right until it’s cleaned out—like trying to force Drano through clogged plumbing instead of actually clearing the pipes.
This episode is part health journey, part comedy, part warning shot:
If you’ve been dragging, inflamed, foggy, tired, or just “not right,” Tombo’s message is simple—clean up the system, then stack the upgrades.
Yep. He’s fighting aging.
And he’s not going quietly.
What you agree with gains permission to operate in your life.
