WEBVTT - Running marathons and understanding our bodies - what we learned last season

0:00:04.320 --> 0:00:07.240
<v Speaker 1>Welcome. Well we are back. The Little Things is back

0:00:07.360 --> 0:00:09.639
<v Speaker 1>the season five? Can you believe that in the weeks?

0:00:09.680 --> 0:00:14.520
<v Speaker 2>Not really. I mean I think for Eric question, it's fabulous,

0:00:14.560 --> 0:00:17.239
<v Speaker 2>but I'm just like from the seed of why did

0:00:17.320 --> 0:00:19.160
<v Speaker 2>we do this? I think this would be a really

0:00:19.200 --> 0:00:21.000
<v Speaker 2>good idea to season five.

0:00:21.040 --> 0:00:23.200
<v Speaker 1>It's just crazy, I know, And we've still got so

0:00:23.400 --> 0:00:25.640
<v Speaker 1>many things that we want to talk about. But before

0:00:25.680 --> 0:00:27.440
<v Speaker 1>we get onto that, maybe we should have a little

0:00:27.440 --> 0:00:29.159
<v Speaker 1>bit of a talk about what we got out of

0:00:29.200 --> 0:00:33.680
<v Speaker 1>season four and actually what kind of impact it has.

0:00:32.960 --> 0:00:37.000
<v Speaker 1>Mail I thought it was a slightly philosophical season actually,

0:00:37.400 --> 0:00:41.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, between various people, I think we had we

0:00:41.159 --> 0:00:41.720
<v Speaker 1>had grief.

0:00:42.479 --> 0:00:44.320
<v Speaker 2>I got a lot out of that episode. I don't

0:00:44.360 --> 0:00:46.080
<v Speaker 2>know if I'm abnormal, but I got a lot out

0:00:46.120 --> 0:00:46.880
<v Speaker 2>of that episode.

0:00:47.360 --> 0:00:50.479
<v Speaker 1>Doctor Denise Quinn, and I thought was an incredibly special person,

0:00:50.800 --> 0:00:53.520
<v Speaker 1>and I just love the way that she talked about

0:00:53.640 --> 0:00:57.640
<v Speaker 1>learning to love without somebody by your side. We had

0:00:58.440 --> 0:01:01.560
<v Speaker 1>wonderful reaction to that. It just felt like that was

0:01:01.640 --> 0:01:04.959
<v Speaker 1>a helpful episode, you know, and it's just sitting there

0:01:04.959 --> 0:01:06.760
<v Speaker 1>waiting for you when you need it. It might not

0:01:06.800 --> 0:01:09.399
<v Speaker 1>be something that you gravitated to last season, but I

0:01:09.440 --> 0:01:11.800
<v Speaker 1>think everyone that listened to it. I mean so many

0:01:11.800 --> 0:01:14.000
<v Speaker 1>people just kind of reached out and went thank you

0:01:14.080 --> 0:01:14.600
<v Speaker 1>so much.

0:01:15.040 --> 0:01:17.839
<v Speaker 2>It was personally helpful for me on a number of levels.

0:01:17.840 --> 0:01:20.200
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if it's her, it's an Irish letter,

0:01:20.240 --> 0:01:22.480
<v Speaker 2>isn't it total that also helped.

0:01:22.560 --> 0:01:25.759
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, No, that that was it. That was key. Okay,

0:01:25.800 --> 0:01:28.480
<v Speaker 1>Producer Carrey, get some more Irish guests song that'll do

0:01:28.520 --> 0:01:31.360
<v Speaker 1>the track. Interestingly, this season, you know, we're going to

0:01:31.400 --> 0:01:34.160
<v Speaker 1>talk about something else which is quite difficult, and so

0:01:34.200 --> 0:01:36.959
<v Speaker 1>many families are going through, and that is dealing with dementia.

0:01:37.080 --> 0:01:39.680
<v Speaker 1>Because that doesn't just happen to an individual, also happens

0:01:39.720 --> 0:01:41.200
<v Speaker 1>to a family and everybody has to deal with that.

0:01:41.280 --> 0:01:44.240
<v Speaker 1>We're going to cover that off this season. Look, there

0:01:44.240 --> 0:01:47.520
<v Speaker 1>were a couple of episodes which kind of were connected

0:01:47.560 --> 0:01:50.200
<v Speaker 1>that really had an impact on me. Obviously, our very

0:01:50.240 --> 0:01:53.960
<v Speaker 1>first episode last season with Lara Bryden the net Path

0:01:54.080 --> 0:01:57.120
<v Speaker 1>on our Metabolism was just a perfect way for me

0:01:57.200 --> 0:02:00.600
<v Speaker 1>to start the season, and in a way, combined with

0:02:00.640 --> 0:02:04.600
<v Speaker 1>our conversation with doctor Will Bolschwitz, who was the gastroentrologist

0:02:04.840 --> 0:02:07.840
<v Speaker 1>and researcher who talked all about our guts, I think

0:02:07.880 --> 0:02:10.680
<v Speaker 1>what I got from last season was so much more

0:02:10.720 --> 0:02:14.520
<v Speaker 1>appreciation for what my body does and so much more

0:02:14.600 --> 0:02:17.680
<v Speaker 1>compassion for how I should treat it, you know, like

0:02:17.720 --> 0:02:20.799
<v Speaker 1>I just, I just it is extraordinary. We just learned

0:02:20.840 --> 0:02:23.120
<v Speaker 1>so much about how our bodies work and how our

0:02:23.160 --> 0:02:26.160
<v Speaker 1>guts work. And I also have the way we seem

0:02:26.200 --> 0:02:28.160
<v Speaker 1>to have these guests who kind of are able to

0:02:28.200 --> 0:02:30.920
<v Speaker 1>put subjects sort of make them quite romantic. Do you

0:02:30.919 --> 0:02:33.919
<v Speaker 1>remember that Will was talking about how we've got thirty

0:02:33.960 --> 0:02:37.880
<v Speaker 1>eight trillion microorganisms and our larger testine and if you

0:02:37.919 --> 0:02:39.960
<v Speaker 1>took every star in the galaxy and put them all

0:02:40.000 --> 0:02:41.840
<v Speaker 1>into a ball and your in testines, you'd have to

0:02:41.880 --> 0:02:44.480
<v Speaker 1>do this three hundred and eighty times with tearim I'm

0:02:44.480 --> 0:02:45.960
<v Speaker 1>talking about this, and I just love this sort of

0:02:46.120 --> 0:02:48.519
<v Speaker 1>people are just talking about our bodies in a different

0:02:48.560 --> 0:02:51.000
<v Speaker 1>way and trying to get us to get our head

0:02:51.040 --> 0:02:54.919
<v Speaker 1>around how absolutely extraordinary they are. You know, you've got

0:02:54.960 --> 0:02:59.040
<v Speaker 1>three hundred and eighty trillion galaxies with the stars in

0:02:59.080 --> 0:03:04.000
<v Speaker 1>your gut. But the point being it has definitely meant

0:03:04.000 --> 0:03:06.880
<v Speaker 1>that I have tried to be more consistent. I'm nowhere

0:03:06.880 --> 0:03:11.040
<v Speaker 1>they're perfect, but sheltering more from alcohol and processed food

0:03:11.160 --> 0:03:13.799
<v Speaker 1>and sugar. And I hate to say it, but it's

0:03:13.840 --> 0:03:17.360
<v Speaker 1>a pretty simple way to feel better, to sleep better,

0:03:18.080 --> 0:03:20.600
<v Speaker 1>have more sort of consistent energy and all those things.

0:03:20.639 --> 0:03:24.639
<v Speaker 1>It's absolutely work in progress, even three four months down

0:03:24.680 --> 0:03:28.320
<v Speaker 1>the line, I'm still working on it very much, but

0:03:29.240 --> 0:03:31.200
<v Speaker 1>I've just i it has been a bit of a

0:03:31.200 --> 0:03:31.960
<v Speaker 1>game changer for me.

0:03:32.040 --> 0:03:34.359
<v Speaker 2>I think I think that's perfect three four months down

0:03:34.400 --> 0:03:36.200
<v Speaker 2>the line because if you if you'd made a huge

0:03:36.240 --> 0:03:38.840
<v Speaker 2>amount of overnight changes, they may not have been sustainable.

0:03:38.840 --> 0:03:40.880
<v Speaker 2>And that's the whole thing, you know, you know how

0:03:40.920 --> 0:03:44.400
<v Speaker 2>I like consistency franchise just a little bit one percent

0:03:44.440 --> 0:03:47.760
<v Speaker 2>every day or whatever they say. Yeah, but I don't

0:03:47.800 --> 0:03:50.680
<v Speaker 2>think I appreciated Laura until until we spoke with it,

0:03:50.800 --> 0:03:53.720
<v Speaker 2>because I hadn't purchased the book at that point that

0:03:53.880 --> 0:03:56.240
<v Speaker 2>I have now, and I think it would be a

0:03:56.240 --> 0:03:58.560
<v Speaker 2>bit like your your book, just full of little notes

0:03:58.600 --> 0:04:00.200
<v Speaker 2>and things. It's not one you can read and then

0:04:00.240 --> 0:04:01.680
<v Speaker 2>give away. You've got to keep it, and then.

0:04:01.800 --> 0:04:04.160
<v Speaker 1>Again it takes a while to get through. So this

0:04:04.240 --> 0:04:05.560
<v Speaker 1>season we are going to do a bit of a

0:04:05.560 --> 0:04:08.280
<v Speaker 1>deep dive and have that conversation about alcohol though yes

0:04:08.840 --> 0:04:11.360
<v Speaker 1>we are, which I know everyone will be really excited

0:04:11.400 --> 0:04:15.520
<v Speaker 1>about and you know, we've been and talking about sort

0:04:15.520 --> 0:04:17.520
<v Speaker 1>of our guts and being more compassionate to our bodies

0:04:17.560 --> 0:04:19.599
<v Speaker 1>and things as well, and how we keep ourselves in

0:04:19.600 --> 0:04:22.520
<v Speaker 1>good working order. We thought we'd talk about supplements this season,

0:04:23.200 --> 0:04:25.360
<v Speaker 1>because not all supplements are equal.

0:04:25.080 --> 0:04:26.560
<v Speaker 2>Right, It's right, and there is a lot of talk

0:04:26.560 --> 0:04:28.480
<v Speaker 2>about them, and as you know, I like to get

0:04:28.480 --> 0:04:31.599
<v Speaker 2>the information from the horse's mouth, so I'm looking forward

0:04:31.600 --> 0:04:35.520
<v Speaker 2>to that. The other thing I liked about last season

0:04:35.720 --> 0:04:38.279
<v Speaker 2>was the people that we talked to just about life.

0:04:38.320 --> 0:04:42.119
<v Speaker 2>I really enjoyed talking to Holly Wayne Wright from Mamma

0:04:42.120 --> 0:04:45.840
<v Speaker 2>Mia in Australia. I liked having that trans tastement sort

0:04:45.839 --> 0:04:49.960
<v Speaker 2>of conversation about just conversations about midlife, but.

0:04:50.000 --> 0:04:52.840
<v Speaker 1>Also trying to put a little bit more of a positive, optimistic,

0:04:52.960 --> 0:04:56.960
<v Speaker 1>yeah slant on things. Oh totally, there's nothing to feel.

0:04:57.120 --> 0:05:00.600
<v Speaker 2>I mean, obviously, at times are hard thing, it's difficult,

0:05:00.640 --> 0:05:03.680
<v Speaker 2>we're coping with a number of different things. But really,

0:05:03.960 --> 0:05:06.040
<v Speaker 2>and I think Oliver also taught us this is that

0:05:06.920 --> 0:05:08.320
<v Speaker 2>things are not always good.

0:05:08.480 --> 0:05:10.359
<v Speaker 1>They are what they are, they are. Let's get on

0:05:10.400 --> 0:05:12.800
<v Speaker 1>with that, right, Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, I agree. I

0:05:12.839 --> 0:05:15.719
<v Speaker 1>really enjoyed Oliver Berkman and Holly Wayne Wright. But Julie

0:05:15.800 --> 0:05:17.280
<v Speaker 1>Kathy Duffy had an impact on you.

0:05:17.480 --> 0:05:18.520
<v Speaker 2>She's high on my list.

0:05:18.560 --> 0:05:19.479
<v Speaker 1>She's high on the list.

0:05:20.160 --> 0:05:23.839
<v Speaker 2>Absolutely. She lit a fire under me and reminded me

0:05:24.160 --> 0:05:30.000
<v Speaker 2>that physical goals and perior menopause and postmenopause, you know,

0:05:30.200 --> 0:05:33.080
<v Speaker 2>are totally attainable. So I have entered an event. I

0:05:33.120 --> 0:05:38.120
<v Speaker 2>have entered a pretty ragged, bloody marathon and the mountains

0:05:38.120 --> 0:05:42.080
<v Speaker 2>of way out in Victoria and Australia. So that is

0:05:42.120 --> 0:05:44.479
<v Speaker 2>going to be a hoop and Francisca's going to coach me.

0:05:44.560 --> 0:05:49.000
<v Speaker 2>So that's look, the coaching has begun. Well it's a

0:05:49.000 --> 0:05:50.400
<v Speaker 2>hoop for me and I just get to sit there

0:05:50.400 --> 0:05:53.560
<v Speaker 2>and put you three faces. It's pretty My hard work

0:05:53.640 --> 0:05:56.360
<v Speaker 2>is done. I've done the program and I will say

0:05:58.160 --> 0:06:01.040
<v Speaker 2>it's not as enjoyable for me without a running partner.

0:06:01.480 --> 0:06:04.120
<v Speaker 1>Well yeah, look, we'll get there. We'll get there. But

0:06:05.000 --> 0:06:07.279
<v Speaker 1>I do I'm quite intrigued that you picked one in

0:06:07.320 --> 0:06:10.120
<v Speaker 1>Australia that I can't. I'm not. I mean, we're never

0:06:10.160 --> 0:06:11.240
<v Speaker 1>going to really know who you did it or not,

0:06:11.279 --> 0:06:13.040
<v Speaker 1>are we? I mean, who would know?

0:06:13.440 --> 0:06:15.359
<v Speaker 2>I'm not quite sure what that was about. Kathy was

0:06:15.360 --> 0:06:17.320
<v Speaker 2>Australian and she was. We were talking about it and

0:06:17.320 --> 0:06:19.080
<v Speaker 2>I think it just it just tickled something in me,

0:06:19.160 --> 0:06:22.599
<v Speaker 2>but you know, she was, she was really, really with them.

0:06:22.800 --> 0:06:24.400
<v Speaker 1>And so on that note, we're going to talk about

0:06:24.720 --> 0:06:26.720
<v Speaker 1>iron and fatigue, which is something you might want to

0:06:26.720 --> 0:06:28.760
<v Speaker 1>get on top of. We're going to talk about that

0:06:28.839 --> 0:06:31.479
<v Speaker 1>with Dr Libby this season as well. So lots of

0:06:31.520 --> 0:06:34.040
<v Speaker 1>really great stuff coming up this season. I'm really looking

0:06:34.080 --> 0:06:35.640
<v Speaker 1>forward to it. We're going to kick off on the

0:06:35.839 --> 0:06:38.920
<v Speaker 1>second of August. Make sure you're join us. We look

0:06:38.920 --> 0:06:47.599
<v Speaker 1>forward to your company
