PotLuck Saturday: Pinky Tuscadero, O.J. & Elvis Sightings.
Saturday, October 3, 2026 • Duration 37:16
Happy Pot Luck Saturday! Pinky Tuscadero, Leather Tuscadero, O.J. Simpson, Elvis sightings, and a possible trip to Germany. We talk about the Happy Days years, Gary Marshall, Potsie singing, and discovering that Suzi Quatro aka Leather Tuscadero is still out there rocking — and apparently seeing her live in Germany for a hundred bucks is something we’re seriously considering. We talk about the O.J. trial 31 years later, the old “Elvis is still alive” days, Whitey Bulger hiding in plain sight, and whether someone famous could actually disappear today. We talk To Catch a Predator, the movie Prime Time, TV sting operations, and the fine line between being a rat and standing up when you know something isn’t right. It’s a Pot Luck Saturday with Tuscaderos, conspiracy theories, moral dilemmas, fair culture, and a little Kev on the Scene classic. Happy Saturday! We’ll Talk Shawtly!

RGF Ep. 293: Fun, Freedom & Finding Your North Star
Friday, October 2, 2026 • Duration 38:37
Happy Regular Guy Friday! We fooled them again and somehow made it through another week! We talk about whether everyone needs a North Star, why some people need one just to get out of first gear, and why others may be better served by something simpler: fun, freedom, and knowing what actually gives them energy. We talk the danger of becoming too obsessed with the destination, the difference between drive and burnout, and why sometimes letting go is what finally allows the next thing to show up. We talk awareness, changing direction, and why your North Star does not have to be forever. Plus, Dunkin’ Donuts staff updates, Goodfellas, and future Olympic hopefuls in Columbus. Try to remember why we are here: To learn from mistakes, help each other, have a few laughs along the way. We’ll Talk Shawtly!

1357. Body Reflexology Explained: How Stress, Emotions and Your Environment Could Be Keeping You in Pain w/ Jared Tavasolian
Thursday, October 1, 2026 • Duration 50:54
Hey, Heal Squad! We’re throwing it back to a conversation that feels more relevant than ever.Health and fitness coach Jared Tavasolian joins Maria to break down the fascinating world of body reflexology: the idea that pain and tension in one part of the body may reveal what’s happening somewhere else, physically or emotionally. Jared shares how his own search for answers took him from living in pain to understanding the deeper signals his body was sending. He explains why the nervous system can respond to emotional stress as if it were a physical threat, how our organs may be connected to different emotions, and why constantly living in fight-or-flight can make it harder for the body to recover. The conversation also explores the environments, relationships and everyday behaviors that may be working against our healing. From setting stronger boundaries and slowing down to questioning what we’ve accepted as “normal,” Jared challenges us to stop outsourcing our health and start paying closer attention to what our bodies are trying to communicate.

1356. How to Reverse Bunions + Maria Reveals What Dancing With the Stars Did to Her Feet w/ Dr. Emily Splichal
Wednesday, September 30, 2026 • Duration 46:07
Hey Heal Squad Dr. Emily Splichal is back for Part 2, and this time things get VERY personal. Maria reveals for the first time what happened to her feet while competing on Dancing With the Stars (including dancing through seven stress fractures!) and Dr. Emily takes a closer look at Maria’s own feet and discovers something she never knew! Dr. Emily also tackles some of the biggest questions about everyday foot health: Does more cushioning actually mean a better shoe? Can wearing too much support make our feet weaker? Who really needs orthotics? And what exactly is plantar fasciitis? She explains why knowing your individual foot type matters and what may actually be happening when that plantar fascia starts causing pain. Then Maria brings Dad into the conversation for an impromptu foot consultation. Dr. Emily breaks down what may be behind his pain and numbness, explains neuromas and shares practical strategies to discuss with a clinician, from foot release and toe spacers to metatarsal pads.And finally: BUNIONS. I know we’ve all been waiting for it! Can you actually reverse one without surgery? Dr. Emily gives the answer and explains what it means to “push pause” on a bunion before it progresses.
HEALERS & HEAL LINERS
More cushion doesn't automatically mean more comfort: Dr. Emily explains why heavily cushioned and supportive shoes aren't automatically better for every foot and why understanding your individual foot type matters.
Know your feet before you try to “fix” them: Flat feet, overpronation, plantar fasciitis and orthotics aren't one-size-fits-all. Dr. Emily explains why properly assessing how your own foot moves is an important first step.
You may not be able to reverse a bunion, but you may be able to “push pause.”: Dr. Emily says structural bunion correction requires surgery, but strengthening the feet, creating more room for the toes and using tools like toe spacers may help protect function and slow progression.

1355. Foot Health 101: Kegels for Your Feet, Barefoot Workouts + 3 Things Your Shoes NEED w/ Dr. Emily Splichal
Tuesday, September 29, 2026 • Duration 37:23
Hey Heal Squad! When was the last time you REALLY thought about your feet? Today you will be thinking a lot about them, because functional podiatrist and human movement specialist Dr. Emily Splichal is here to reveal just how much the feet can affect the way the entire body moves and functions. From the shoes and socks we wear to toe spacers and barefoot workouts actually work...Dr. Emily breaks down what healthy feet should actually look like! She also explains the surprising connection between the feet, fascia, pelvic floor, core and even the tongue! PLUS, how we can strengthen the tiny muscles in our feet and what to look for in healthier footwear. This episode will completely change the way you think about the foundation you stand on…no pun intended! Enjoy!
HEALERS & HEAL LINERS
Give your toes room to do their job: Healthy toes are designed to be long, straight and spread and footwear can affect their natural position and function.
Your feet are connected to more than you think: The feet are part of a larger fascial and muscular system connecting upward through the body, including the pelvic floor and core.
Don't just go barefoot, train your feet: Being barefoot creates more access to the feet, but intentionally engaging and strengthening them is key to building better foot function.

1354. The $1 Massage Hack for Tight Muscles, Horse Hair Toothbrushes + Maria's BEST Frizzy Hair Fix
Monday, September 28, 2026 • Duration 30:26
Hello, hello, Heal Squad! This week’s What Worked This Week is basically your group chat for all the random little things that have been..well working! Maria is sharing five finds and hacks she’s genuinely loving right now, starting with the very real moment she realized she suddenly can’t read the tiny print on anything anymore LOL! We’re talking cute, inexpensive readers, the phone case that finally lets her leave the purse at home, and a hair product she had sitting around for a YEAR before realizing it might be the answer to the frizz and texture changes she’s been battling. Plus, Maria shares her ridiculously easy ponytail trick for curling your entire head in minutes, the unexpected toothbrush swap that has her teeth feeling freshly polished, and the $1 “massage therapist” hiding in your garage ... .you might already have this in your garage! Let’s just say, if your neck, shoulders, back or feet are always tight, you’re going to want this one.And somewhere along the way, Maria discovers just how much time they’re actually spending on their phones…and let’s just say the Screen Time report was HUMBLING. Hope you enjoy this one!

Sunday Set Up Ep. 56: Why We Need to Let Go of Expectations
Sunday, September 27, 2026 • Duration 29:18
Happy Sunday! Welcome to Heal Squad's The Sunday Set Up. Life lessons to help you start the week. This week, we talk about expectations and how much of our disappointment may come from expecting life, other people, and even ourselves to behave exactly the way we think they should. We talk about letting go of attachment to outcomes, why we can get hurt when others don't respond with the same care or consideration we would, and the simple idea that maybe life gets a little easier when we stop expecting everything to go according to plan. Sometimes nothing is actually wrong — life just isn't matching the picture we had in our heads. We talk about the idea that we can have a hundred different ways for something to feel wrong and only one very specific way for it to feel right. Maybe the goal isn't getting everything perfectly into place. Maybe it's recognizing how often we're focusing on what's "muddled" instead of appreciating everything that's already okay. This week, ask yourself: What expectations am I holding onto? Am I letting someone else's actions determine how I feel? Have I created so many rules for what "right" looks like that I'm missing what's already good? Have a great week, Heal Squad. We'll Talk Shawtly!

PotLuck Saturday: Columbia House- How Did 12 Albums for a Penny Actually Work
Saturday, September 26, 2026 • Duration 35:15
Happy Pot Luck Saturday! Twelve albums for a penny, jazz fusion, fake apartment numbers, and 22,000 CDs. Yes, we’re finally talking about Columbia House. We talked about the Columbia Record and Tape Club, the little cards tucked inside magazines, waiting for that cardboard box to arrive, and the fine print that turned one innocent penny into- well- a lot more. We talk about the albums you actually wanted, the ones you definitely didn’t, and the teenagers who discovered there were ways around the system. We talk about Hootie & the Blowfish, Better Than Ezra, the documentary The Target Shoots First, and David Russo — the New Jersey guy who used 1,630 aliases and 12 mailboxes to get more than 22,000 CDs before the Postal Inspectors finally caught up with him. It’s a Pot Luck Saturday with mail-order music, teenage schemes, forgotten CDs, Lester Wunderman, the Advertising Hall of Fame, and the days when getting a box of records in the mail felt like an event. We’ll Talk Shawtly!

RGF Ep. 292: When Jerks Use their Powers for Good
Friday, September 25, 2026 • Duration 47:09
Happy Regular Guy Friday! We fooled them again and somehow made it through another week!Fall is officially here, the heat has been switched on, and the digressions have gone quadratic. We talk about why the decades used to feel so different, the business lesson hiding inside the Gold Rush, and why sometimes the smartest move is selling the maps and shovels instead of chasing the gold. We talk about the importance of knowing your players, and occasionally letting the Harriet Olsens of the world use their powers for good. Plus, NECCO Wafers are somehow still alive, “sundries” deserves a comeback, and old Art Bell predictions may actually offer us a little hope: after decades of doom and gloom that never quite happened, maybe we’re going to be okay after all. Try to remember why we are here: To learn from mistakes, help each other, have a few laughs along the way. We’ll Talk Shawtly!

1353. How to Laugh Through the Hard Stuff: Comedian Andy Richter on Rejection, Mental Health + Healing
Thursday, September 24, 2026 • Duration 01:07:33
Hey, Heal Squad! We’re throwing it back to one of our favorite conversations with comedian, writer, actor, and now Dancing with the Stars podcast host Andy Richter!You probably know Andy as Conan O’Brien’s longtime hilarious sidekick, but in this conversation, we get to see a much more vulnerable side of him. Andy opens up about his mental health journey, navigating rejection and uncertainty in Hollywood, and how comedy can become a way to process the hard stuff, find perspective, and keep moving forward. He also shares what decades in entertainment have taught him about staying positive when your career doesn’t go according to plan, the advice he’d give anyone trying to break into the business, and the one quality he believes is at the heart of truly great comedy.It’s funny, honest, unexpectedly healing, and filled with advice that goes way beyond Hollywood. Whether you’re chasing a dream, navigating a tough season, or just need the reminder that sometimes laughter really can help us through, this one is worth revisiting. Enjoy!
