From Wildfires to Workouts—Let’s Talk About It! 

In this episode of It’s Ben a Week, we start with a moment of reflection on the LA fires and the importance of compassion and community during tough times. Then, we shift gears and hit the gym with my personal trainer, Brandon, where things get… chaotic. 

We’re breaking down:
• The real truth about training with me (Brandon has thoughts)
• The gym habits that drive him absolutely nuts
•  Rapid-fire fitness & life questions that keep him on his toes
PLUS—I introduce our brand-new after-show, Ben There, Done That, featuring AJ!

If you’re here for laughs, banter, and a little fitness talk with zero filters, this one’s for you. Hit play now!
