The Two Fit Crazies Reunite for a Rant - Episode 175

Episode 175 - The Two Fit Crazies Reunite for a Rant

“Everyone is angry. Everyone has taken a side. Mask. No mask. Blue Lines. Equality. It’s a mess.” -Brian

“Cats and dogs, living together, it’s mass hysteria.” - Christine & Bill Murray

Every so often, the Two Fit Crazies reunite for an extra crazy show to bring all of you up to

speed on their latest acts of craziness. This episode will not disappoint as Brian attempts to

“talk Christine off the ledge” after her most recent “failure forward” and Brian goes on a rant

about the state of humanity.

First, congratulations to Logan, our second annual Two Fit Crazies & A Microphone

Podcast Scholarship winner. She is a Rheumatoid Arthritis Warrior who is headed to college

to continue to inspire the world. Stay tuned for her debut on the show next month!

In addition, as the pandemic draws on, Brian and Christine get fired up over various topics such

as: mask-wearing (like why is this an option?), equality (like why doesn’t everyone want

this?), humanity (like why are people so angry?), the ocean (like why does it have to be a war

zone?) and much much more! Also, find out why Brian is talking like Andrew Dice Clay, why

Christine’s hair smells like bug repellent and where you can get a “facial down there!” Yes.

This is a thing!

“You never choose your path, message, charity. It chooses YOU.” “Everyone needs two mentors; one person in your field and one person you want to be like.” - Lawrence Biscontini

It has been two years in the making, but the Two Fit Crazies were finally able to steal some time with the one-of-a-kind inspirational human by the name of Lawrence Biscontini. Joining the show from his quarantine retreat, or extended “staycation,” in Puerto Rico, Lawrence shares how “fear, family history, and an evil stepmother” inspired him to pursue what was most important to his heart. This self-proclaimed “resident of the world,” who mainly resides in New York, Puerto Rico and Mykonos when he is not presenting around-the-globe, has spent the last 5 months laser-focused on mentoring and consulting fitness professionals on how to elevate their career, make deeper connections on deeper levels, keep the “kind” in human kindness, and how to think like a business. Lawrence reveals why he was compelled to create a Virtual Global United Fitness Roundtable to provide access to the best ideas, tips, and secrets from top industry leaders from around-the-world. From his work with outreach programs for the Sisters of St. Joseph to the Biscontini Scholarships, Lawrence is a truly remarkable soul, and one in which you will surely want as a friend and mentor.

The Two Fit Crazies loved all the amazing advice Lawrence offers up on this episode, so get your pens and pencils ready, it is time for some hashtags: #buckofcrazy #Fitnessworks #Youarenotalone #thrivenotsurvive #Fitfam #YesYouCan

Thom King - CEO and Chief Food Scientist, ICON Foods/Author, Guy Gone Keto - Episode 172

Episode 172 - Thom King - CEO and Chief Food Scientist, ICON Foods/Author, Guy Gone Keto

“I look at what I do as more of a cause than as a business.”

“The process took years...I look back at the successes versus the challenges...the challenges

are when I learned the most...I am super grateful for those.”

- Thom King

In Episode 172, the Two Fit Crazies have an amazing conversation with Thom King, “part CEO,

part personal development wonk and part biohacker info geek.” Joining the show from

Portland, Oregon, Thom discusses his journey to become a “serial entrepreneur,” founding

multiple companies and authoring a book. Currently the CEO and Chief Food Scientist at

ICON Foods, Thom reveals how a fortuitous run in with an “OG” of Stevia led to his

fascination and eventual success dissecting and re-creating great tasting foods using

clean-label sweetening systems to replace sucrose and high-fructose corn syrup. In addition

to working with major food and beverage companies around the world, Thom’s personal

Ketogenic lifestyle inspired him to share his knowledge and experiences with the world

through his book, Guy Gone Keto. Although the word “Guy” appears in the title, Thom

reassures listeners that the message is universal: “you must eat to live, not live to eat.”

Through his passion for creating foods that offer less sugar and carbs per serving, Thom talks

about his current line of condiments and his current project of creating healthier and

Keto-friendly cocktails such as: Margaritas, Pina Coladas, Manhattan’s, and Christine’s

personal favorite, the Cosmopolitan. Do not be surprised when she asks if taste testers are

needed! You are going to love this episode packed with tons of laughs and surprising

information about what is in your food!

Carol Ann – Chiseled Faith - Episode 157

Episode 157 - Carol Ann – Chiseled Faith

Director of Education: Chiseled Faith Author: ​Chiseled Faith Fitness Expert, Author, Educator, Health & Fitness Entrepreneur

“I always felt that something was missing from the faith-based community.”

“Live a life of abundance...not be a slave to your body.” - Carol Ann

In this episode, the Two Fit Crazies are joined by the amazingly uplifting, beautiful, and intelligent woman by the name of Carol Ann, the mastermind behind Chiseled Faith. Carol Ann felt something was missing from the faith-based community with regards to exercise and caring for the body. As a result, she wrote, ​Chiseled Faith, a manuscript that lays the groundwork for educating religious communities to improve nutrition and exercise routines through teachings of the Bible. While the fitness industry talks about the idea of exercising the mind and body, Carol Ann is a pioneer in finding a way to “tap into spirituality” through Chiseled Faith. With staggering numbers of obese and unhealthy clergy and religious officials on the rise, Carol Ann knew it was time to find a way to “work in” fitness and nutrition into the religious community. Carol Ann also discusses how growing up as a Fundamental Baptist in the south provided her with the inspiration to create a faith-based health and wellness program that perfectly juxtaposes the principles of exercise science with faith. Her dedication to provide community motivation and inspiration through the words of the Bible are unparalleled as seen through her devotion to Chiseled Faith. This episode will surely inspire you!
