This episode, I interview guest Tom Myers of Anatomy Trains. Tom is probably best known for his work detailing the anatomy of myofascial connections, and the cascade of implications thereafter, tho' we actually only talk fascia a little bit.

We *do* talk about the art/science dichotomy (or is it?), somatic intelligence, kids and parenting and schooling, yoga and pilates and movement nutrition ... even immortality and how the internet is evolving like the nervous systems of organisms.
