What does your rotten health attitude struggle with most?
C.H.R.I.S.T.M.A.S. Survival Guide – Rotten Attitude Edition 🏋️🤢🥗
Not feeling the "most wonderful time of the year" vibes?
You're not alone.
In this episode, we break down a no-BS approach to surviving the holiday season with the slightly wet/lame C.H.R.I.S.T.M.A.S. acronym:
C = Create or Crap on the Fun of It.
Find a safe space to crap all over Christmas if it's not your thing. Don't let the holiday nonsense force its "most wonderful time of the year" propaganda down your throat.
H = Have a Laugh. Or Not.
You don't have to fake joy just to fit in. Practise as much Holiday JOMO (Joy of Missing Out) as possible.
R = Reset with Realistic Expectations
Don't promise yourself a complete life overhaul on January 1st.
I = Intentional Time with Others and Yourself.
You'll be obligated to spend time with people you don't want to. Prioritise making time for yourself!
S = Saying No to Additional Shit You Don't Need
Ride the wave of mindfulness—stay present and accept the natural ebbs and flows of cravings, urges, and emotions without letting them overwhelm you.
T = Track Your Mornings and Evenings.
The best morning routine starts with a solid evening routine.
M = Make Peace with the Overconsumption.
Did you eat and drink it all? Good. As Jocko says: "Good." Move on.
A = Accept That It Might Take Until Next Christmas to See Real Change
30 days is just the beginning. Let go of the idea that everything needs to go according to plan.
S = Start Fresh Before the New Year
Don't let a date on the calendar dictate when you start over.

Ever wondered if those blue light-blocking glasses actually work or if you're falling for a placebo?
In our comeback episode, we dive deep into sleep hygiene and supplements. Do products like magnesium, L-theanine, and apigenin genuinely make a difference?
We share our personal experiences and debate the effectiveness of various devices, including Kindles with warm light settings. Plus, get practical tips on balancing screen time with sleep preparation to ensure you get that elusive good night's sleep.
Behind the Podcast: Humour, Insights, and TMJ Troubles
We reflect on our podcasting journey, mixing humour with professional insights. From discussing Matthew Walker's sleep research to Fiona's jaw struggles with TMJ (and the bizarre topic of "turkey teeth"), we keep things light-hearted yet informative. Our candid conversations offer a peek behind the scenes of our growing podcast and the challenges of producing valuable, engaging content.
Total Recall: Dream or Reality?
In an exciting twist, we delve into the mysteries of the sci-fi classic "Total Recall." Is it all a dream, or is it reality? We break down key scenes, memorable quotes, and the use of practical effects versus CGI in Paul Verhoeven's iconic film.
Nostalgia, True Crime, and Keto Delights
We share our thoughts on the nostalgia for pre-digital childhood experiences and our true crime podcast preferences. As a bonus, enjoy a keto-friendly recipe for mozzarella-stuffed meatballs!
Exclusive Insight: Freya India Article Discussion
At the end of the episode, we discuss an intriguing article from Freya India about Gen Z kids mourning a time they will never have without smartphones and social media. The article explores how today's youth feel a sense of loss for previous generations' simpler, tech-free childhoods.

Have you ever wondered how a simple dietary choice can impact everything from your health to your social life?
Tune in as we explore the profound journey of transitioning to a vegan lifestyle, sparked by a growing awareness of animal welfare and the eye-opening revelations from documentaries like "Cowspiracy."
We candidly share personal experiences, debunk common misconceptions, and lay bare the emotional and social hurdles faced along the way. Discover how the landscape for vegan options has dramatically evolved, making the transition more feasible than ever before.
In this episode, we don't just stop at veganism. We dive into the rising trend of the carnivore diet, comparing its principles and ethics with those of a vegan lifestyle. You'll hear about the dedication to maintaining vegan values amidst societal pressures and scrutiny.
We also unveil practical tips on maintaining essential nutrient levels, such as protein intake, and easily navigating through a sea of food labels and allergens.
Lastly, we tackle the chaotic world of dietary influencers and the misinformation that often plagues social media. From the antics of figures like Eddie Abbew and The Liver King to the absurdity of punching vegetables in supermarkets, we stress the importance of scepticism and making informed choices.
We highlight the positive mental health benefits of physical activities like running and advocating for a balanced approach to nutrition, exercise, and overall well-being.
Whether contemplating a vegan lifestyle or simply curious about its broader implications, this episode promises valuable insights and practical advice.
