    In this episode, Richard and Linda share their own journey from "gulp, guzzle and gorge" to "sip, savor, and smell" and talk about how we can change our fundamental relationship with food and bridle and train our appetites so that they begin to demand more quality and less quantity in what we eat.

  • THE HALF-DIET DIET

    THE HALF-DIET DIET
    Aug 30 2025
    In this episode, the Eyres discuss the diet book that Richard wrote nine years ago, and the theory that if we can control the quantity of food we eat, our bodies (our appetites) will start to demand quality rather than quantity, and we will begin to crave healthy foods and be repelled by junk food. Like putting a bridle on a horse, when we limit our intake, we train our appetite to work for us rather than against us.

    LONGEVITY and LEGACY
    Aug 9 2025
    The Eyres are musing on these two "L" words today, and how much more prominent they become in our thinking as we get older. Some may say that we have little or no control over how long we live or what people will remember about us -- But we actually have more influence on both both than we think, say the Eyres.
