The Funny Guys: Strength & Scotch Podcast
With a tagline like “A weekly podcast covering everything health and fitness… with a splash of booze…” you know you’re up for a good time with this one. Men’s Journal puts it this way: “If you prefer your training advice with a side of humor (and alcohol), the Strength & Scotch Podcast might be for you. Hosts Heavey and Grant provide a mix of real-life coaching experience with a desire to get to the bottom of popular diets and training trends. This podcast doesn’t focus on a specific type of training, but it does provide a well-rounded, unbiased perspective on a range of fitness topics.”

Full of Inspiration: Half-Size Me
According to The Daily Burn, “Straight up is how Heather Robison serves her podcast. An everyday mom — not a Hollywood star nor celebrity trainer — Robertson shed 170 pounds over five years and amassed an audience after sharing her story with others. She’s now keeping it real, busting diet myths and dishing out the best strategies for sustainable weight loss weekly. Hear how regular people like Robinson avoid binge eating, regain fitness after pregnancy or lose (and keep off!) significant amounts of weight.”
