Time In The Mountains

  • Vinnie recently went to Mammoth, and he discusses his blood cell count and how chemo has affected it. (3:00)
    • He also explains how athletes were using blood doping, especially in cycling. (8:00)
  • Vinnie explains why he went to the Mammoth—it can help his blood cell count by using altitude changes. (12:00)
    • If you train close to sea level, you can train your muscles harder.
    • But if you sleep at a high altitude, you recover more quickly.
    • He didn’t do Whitney as planned and used his time to relax a bit more. (16:00)
    • He also appeared on two podcasts for Mike Rowe and Adam Carolla.
  • They reminisce about friends Ozzie, Gina’s dad, and the many talents of the brilliant Serena Scott Thomas. (20:00)

The Softening Of Humans

  • Vinnie brings up a topic that he knows he’ll get some pushback on. (29:00)
    • What he witnessed in Mammoth is very different from years ago.
      • Many people are visibly out of shape; however, he is glad to see them out and challenging their bodies.
      • What annoyed him was the number of people who were riding motorized bikes, and never using the pedals.
        • It's just another example of the softening of humans.
  • Vinnie has movie recommendations: “Hard Miles” and “26.2 to Life”. (46:00)
