Mike "Silent Mike" Farr and Jim McDonald are entrepreneurs (lifestyle apparel company and a barbell gym) and veteran podcasters. In every episode, they try to answer a single question. Any question is fair game, but most involve health, fitness, nutrition, mental health, culture…even sex. They examine common misconceptions and then try to get to the correct answer -- often with the help of subject matter experts. They walk away with a better sense of the facts…and so do you. Full episodes every Wednesday. Shorter episodes every Friday, dedicated to answering a question from listeners.

How do you organize yourself when starting a business? | One Good Question
This week’s question comes from Mike’s Instagram:
“How do you organize your thoughts, wants, and plans when you’re building a business.”
Everybody has their own personal organizational approaches (with varying degrees of success). We talk about what has worked for us.
Sebastian Brambila (@sebastian_brambila) ran the board and chimed in on this one.

Will Instagram changes kill powerlifting memes?
It looks like changes are afoot. Instagram may be changing how its algorithm serves up shared (versus original) content. Will this entirely change the meme game?
We also ran down lists of the most intelligent animals and discussed some more surprising genetic traits (in humans). Sebastian Brambila (@sebastian_brambila) ran the board and chimed in on this one.

Does music really affect performance? | One Good Question
Does a PR song really help you get a PR? Does the tempo of music change the speed of your cardio workout? Maybe most importantly, does it affect your motivation to lift?
Sebastian Brambila (@sebastian_brambila) ran the board and chimed in on this one.

Does looking jacked always make a good impression ?
We’ve always been told not to judge a book by its cover, but does that stop us? No! Even when it’s not a good idea. Why do we make these judgments?
We look at three physical characteristics that humans tend to let themselves be influenced by when judging the people we meet. Some things can be changed through reasonable effort (getting muscles), but others are much tougher (or impossible). Is being more muscular always a plus?
Sebastian Brambila (@sebastian_brambila) ran the board and chimed in on this one.

When should kids start strength training? | One Good Question
This week’s question is more of a parenting question than a physiology question. When should parents introduce strength training? The answer is simpler than you’d think.

How come some powerlifting rules make no sense?
If short lifters can use blocks under their feet in competition, why can’t tall lifters use a taller bench? That’s just one example, but when you take a closer look there are definitely some things that don’t make sense.
We also talk NBA, Taylor Swift, local crime, and bidets.
