This week, Robert and Kyle give their thoughts on how to askfor advice. First make sure that you actually want advice, rather than encouragement or sympathy. Be specific with your requests, open-minded, goal-oriented, and respectful of the other person's time. Asking for advice is only half the battle, listening, reflecting, and putting the advice into actionis the tricky part. Take it from us, advice is just empty calories until you act on it. Listen and let us know what you think at deephopics@gmail.com

This week, Robert and Kyle offer some recommendations for how to ask for help. The guys look back on what Benjamin Franklin can teach us about getting to know your neighbors and how to endear yourself to others. They also discuss the stigma surrounding admitting when you need help. As so much of our self-image is tied up in our ability to do things on our own, asking for help can be difficult. Remember, asking for help isn't the admission of a weakness, it can be turned into a strength when done properly. We hope you enjoy!

This week, the guys are gettin' swole! Well, maybe not somuch...but Kyle and Robert do discuss some of the ways that they both stay motivated with their exercise and nutrition goals. Joining the guys in this discussion is Kyle's brother Morgan who offers his personal perspective onhealth, wellness, nutrition, and work-life balance. Some meaningful tips offered are the importance of prioritizing care, managing stress in your personal and professional life, building good habits, and taking small doable stepswith your workouts (progressive overload) and nutrition (no crash diets!). The guys make time for some funny workout stories, including creatine-induced intestinal troubles, praying for a port-o-potty during long runs, and teachingkids a valuable lesson about safety in the weight room.

We have a very special movie review for the month ofSeptember! The guys are breaking down the Arnold Schwarzenegger 80's action-packed classic: The Running Man! Set in the dystopian future of 2017 (lol...), Ben Richards, our wrongly convicted hero, is sentenced to a game showwhere he will have to run for his life from the deadly stalkers on his trail. Join Kyle and Robert as they ask all of the important questions: How did they make a personalized suit for Arnold so quickly? What constitutes proper chainsawetiquette while riding a motorcycle? Is Dynamo and his Lite Brite suit the lamest villain of all time? In honor of Stephen King's birthday, the guys also do a quick recap of the 1982 book that the movie is based on. Tune in and find out the differences between the book and movie adaptation. As always, thanks for listening!

Kyle and Robert are ready for the 2025 NFL season to begin!But this got them thinking...is the NFL our society's version of the ancient Roman Gladiator battles? This launched the guys into a much deeper topic: How do we view our past actions and how do we think our future selves will judgeour actions of today? Kyle and Robert both cringe over the things they did and said as teenagers, but what will the 2050 elderly versions of the guys think about them now? Let's be honest, our elderly selves are probably hanging theirheads in shame too! Look, it's never too late to think about changing your behavior in the present, because 'now' is the only time you have to make a difference.

Also, please stay tuned to the books and movies segment, aswe discuss next week's Deep Hopic Movie Pick for September 2025! Thanks forlistening!

After a quick recap of the weekend at the Cotton Candy Festival, hosts Kyle and Robert dive into the complex topic ofseparating the art from the artist, questioning whether art can be appreciated independently of its creator. They discuss how ethics and morality evolve over time (you probably wouldn't want to hang out with Thomas Jefferson in the 21stCentury). The guys emphasize the importance of holding artists accountable for their actions and the harm they may cause. At the same time, they discuss the value of incentivizing sincere apologies and offering a path back to social acceptance for those genuinely working to improve. This is easier for Kyle, as all the books he reads are covered in dust and centuries old. However, Robert is considering what to do about his Spotify playlist and new shows he's watching. Ultimately, everyone will likely draw their own boundaries when consuming art created by flawed individuals, and it's up to you to decide your level of support and forgiveness. As always, let us know your thoughts by emailing us at DeepHopics@gmail.com - Thanks for listening!
