    50% Facts

    A podcast that examines how health, fitness, nutrition, mental health…even sex…are portrayed in popular culture, including movies and social media. And how those portrayals are sometimes distorted beyond recognition.

    Veteran podcaster Jim McDonald hosts discussions with guests from the world of weights, fitness, and sometimes entertainment and sports. Jim is the owner of Third Street Barbell in Sacramento, CA. 

    Mike “Silent Mike” Farr appeared as co-host through mid-2025.

    Best roadside attractions, America’s favorite candies, and is the F in FMK good or bad? Feb 21, 2024
    Show notes

    We try to guess our way through the top 10 candies in the US and break down some of the best roadside attractions around the country (particularly between LA and Las Vegas). We debate whether the F in the FMK game is the good kind of F*** or the “F*** off!” kind of F. We also discussed the Leonardo DiCaprio movie that’s being shot in town and the extreme experience of Kyoto coffee.
    Our own Avi Lieu (@avi.lieu), and Sebastian Brambila (@sebastian_brambila), joined us for this one.

    Weird things you can inherit (Part two)? | Crew Show Feb 14, 2024
    Show notes

    Back to our discussion of an article from a non-fitness source detailing 16 weird things that people can inherit.
    As a strength community, we talk a lot about genetic potential. Some are gifted in some areas and weak in others. Some things are in our control, but others just aren’t. We talk about our own experience of strengths, weaknesses, nature vs nurture, and just weird abilities.
    Our gym manager, Kyle Castro (@kyle.castroo), our media guy, Sebastian Brambila (@sebastian_brambila), and our head trainer, Avi Lieu (@avi.lieu), joined us for this one.

    Is it ok (or creepy) for guys to talk to women in the gym? | One Good Question Feb 09, 2024

    Commercial gyms have often been seen as pickup joints or meat markets. Let’s face it. Guys can be awkward and creepy. Is it ok to try it these days? If so, how do you it with a decent chance of success?

    Are USAPL 2025 qualifying totals too high? | One Good Question Feb 02, 2024
    Show notes

    In something of a sequel to our last episode, we discuss the USAPL’s new, much higher qualifying totals for the 2025 Raw Nationals. Obviously higher QTs mean fewer entries. That has the potential to reshape everything about the meet. Should national meets be open to a lot of lifters or just the top select few?

    How big should a national meet be? | Crew Show Jan 31, 2024

    The USAPL national meets have grown to epic proportions in the past several years. For 2024, the meet is already full, even though many lifters will have to make qualifying totals sometime before nationals. Is this the best way to ensure that the best lifters will actually be in the meet?
    We also hit on a number of other topics, including how it feels to have left a bad situation. Our own Avi Lieu (@avi.lieu), Kyle Castro (@kyle.castroo) Sebastian Brambila (@sebastian_brambila), and Matt Ogihara (@matt_ogi) joined us for this one.
