"Hi John! I subscribed and put your podcast in my listening queue. I should be getting there pretty soon! OK, I am curious, so I will probably jump ahead of previously downloaded podcasts. Cliff and Stephanie can wait! :-)

"Hi John!
Although I don't listen to every episode of Podcast Answer Man, because I am not always into the details of podcasting, I did notice in the show notes that Cliff would be talking about "creating life-changing content" or…"

"OK, "Cliff," if that's your real name. ;-) I understand that the CNMC prep must have kept you busy. How exciting!
You can use those exercise endorphins to head off the much-discussed post-trip blahs that you've had before,…"

"Hey dude, long time no see! :-) I thought "Inside Method" looked new, so I'm glad to start with that as my first set of Bob Harper DVDs. I am going to finish this round of P90X2, but maybe at least watch the other ones…"

"Great comments Fred! I have the Bob Harper "Yoga for the Warrior" DVD and can also share that it's a great workout for only $5. Solid thumbs up for Trainer Bob's new "Inside Method"…"

"So, Cliff, anything new in this area of your life that you might want to share in this group? This might be a leading question, since I've seen some Facebook updates from you recently. :-)"

"I've replied to a couple of other people over the past few weeks, but I haven't updated my own progress! I used Jillian Michaels Body Revolution for my daily workouts during July and August. I would highly recommend this 90-day program for…"

"Hi Dawn! Thanks for the update. I'm sorry I haven't been back here sooner to see it. I finished my "trial run" with Body Revolution at the end of July. It's good to see the exercises are tough but not too tough for you. My…"

"Almost done with Jillian Michaels Body Revolution workouts. This is my final week. I started at the end of May, skipped through Phase 1 a little quicker than the recommended 4 weeks, then slowed down to one month each in Phase 2 and 3. Every two…"

"Hi Dawn! How's it going with Body Revolution, or the healthy habits in general?"

I hope you have an amazing week!

"Thanks, Cliff! Or should I say, Podcast Answer Man! :-) At some point, I realized my blog needed a name, and I really like talking about home fitness, so it seemed to be the right choice that also didn't appear elsewhere online. I've found…"

"Hey Fred. Love the new brand name... Home Fitness Geek!"
Profile Information
- What are your favorite gspn.tv shows?
- Balanced Living Weekly, PABL, Social Media Serenity, Business Tech Weekly, On the Screen
- When and how did you find the gspn.tv Community?
- Shortly after Cliff and Stephanie began podcasting about Lost, I was searching the Internet for information (and spoilers) about that show, and I learned that podcasts existed. I quickly subscribed to The Transmission, the Lost Podcast with Jay and Jack, and of course Cliff and Stephanie's Weekly Lost Podcast. Since then, I have enjoyed listening to and interacting with Cliff, Stephanie, their co-hosts, and the GSPN community about Lost and many other topics. In addition to my personal growth as a result of being podcast listener, I have met an entire community of great people.
- Please share a short bio with us so that we can get to know you better.
- I am a husband and father of two kids, in my forties. Currently I am working as a computer geek in the financial services industry. I was born in Montreal, Canada, and moved to the Northeastern US with my family as a teenager. Fast forward to college, where I met my wife, a Long Island native. Early in our marriage we moved to Long Island, and that's where we've lived for the past 20 years. So that's where I earned my Internet nickname "Fred from Long Island."
Bringing it back around to GSPN (and in closing), I am grateful from what I have learned from the podcasts and the community about health/fitness, PABL (of course!), social media, and ALL THOSE THEORIES ABOUT LOST!
- What sort of hobbies or interests do you have?
- I speak French, I love sci fi TV and movies, pop culture, and singing in the church choir. When Cliff and Stephanie helped me get serious about my health, I lost 40 lbs and achieved my goal weight in 2009. I listen to health/fitness podcasts. I am a fan of Jillian Michaels workout DVDs, and Tony Horton's P90X.

Paul Bailey said… Hi Fred, I just had to drop a comment about your profile pic. That was taken at More London, facing the world famous Tower Bridge (not London Bridge as most people mistake the name for) you were right out side 3 restaurants, you are facing towards some fountains that come straight out of the ground.
How do I know this? I live a 2 minute walk from where you were standing and see that view every singly day.. In fact you are actually stood on top of my gym (37 degrees) that I go to 5 times a week! :-)
I hope you enjoyed your visit to London!

I love Cliff more than you.
By the way... did anyone ever tell you that you won the Guild DVD set? You can't have it till you listen to the show you won it on!!! Hint: Brokeya.com

Kathy Mac said… - HA! I watched Serenity *before* seeing Firefly. But, shhhhh. Don't tell! It was far more entertaining that way, and far easier to mock the speech patterns that way. Of course, there are lines that I *STILL* quote... "She's disturbing my calm" being one of them.

- Yes, you get credit. A gold star even. But if you haven't SEEN Firefly yet, get on that! :) They happen before the movie, so you already know how the story ends!!

Fred, I learned something new about you. I didn't know that you speak French.
Congrats on reaching your goal weight. I hope to join you in that success before too long. ;)
