Healthy eating doesn’t have to mean giving up everything you love or memorizing complicated food rules. In this fun and relaxed episode, we’re busting some of the biggest nutrition myths out there (yes, even the one about carbs being the enemy) and sharing the simple swaps that helped us go from pre-diabetic to feeling our best—without giving up real food or taking medication.

Think of this as a casual kitchen-table chat where we spill the (unsweetened) tea on late-night snacking, smart shopping strategies (hint: stay around the edges of the store), and why adding veggies doesn’t have to be a chore. From our own experience—and a few good laughs—we’ve found that small, realistic changes add up fast.

You’ll get practical tips you can try today, whether you’re figuring out what to eat for breakfast or wondering how to help your grandkids develop better habits (spoiler: they’re watching everything you do).

It’s real talk, real food, and real results—served up with a side of encouragement and maybe a chuckle or two. Tune in and let us know which tips you’re trying this week. We’d love to hear from you!

Thank you for spending time with us today! We hope you enjoyed our conversation, related to something we said, and learned something new along the way.

Welcome to "The Barbershop", where real men have real conversations - uncut, unfiltered and unapologetically honest. It's the spot in our Agile Always podcast where we pull up a chair, talk life, health, and everything in-between, from the deeply personal to the universally important.

Pat Riley once said, "You have to be an active participant in your own rescue." These words perfectly capture the urgent message at the heart of this powerful episode of Officially Fenner/Agile Alway's new "Barbershop" segment, where host Rudy brings authentic men's health conversations out of the barbershop and into the open.

Rudy, joined by his brother Greg (a prostate cancer survivor turned advocate) and son-in-law David (representing a younger perspective), this multigenerational discussion tackles the staggering reality that 80% of men who live to 80 will develop prostate cancer—with even higher rates among African American men. Yet countless men avoid the simple PSA blood test that could save their lives.

The trio explores the complex reasons behind men's reluctance to seek medical care: historical distrust of the healthcare system, the masculine tendency to "tough it out," and fears about procedures and potential sexual dysfunction. With remarkable candor, they share personal experiences that illuminate how early detection dramatically improves both outcomes and treatment options.

Family history emerges as a crucial but often overlooked factor. As Greg powerfully states, "If you have had prostate cancer and you have a son, you're putting his life at risk not telling him." The conversation moves beyond detection to treatment decisions, with insights on everything from "active surveillance" (which Greg compares to "a stick of dynamite with a fuse") to radiation therapies and surgical options.

Whether you're approaching 40 or well beyond, this conversation could literally save your life or the life of someone you love. Listen, learn, and become an active participant in your own health journey. What's your PSA number?

Thank you for spending time with us today! We hope you enjoyed our conversation, related to something we said, and learned something new along the way.
