Two Idiots 148: Night Owl feat. Brent Manke

The Two Idiots Podcast

This week, avid runner, writer, and poet, Brent Manke joins the show and handles his honourary Idiot role with ease! I'll let you decide if that's a compliment or insult, but either way, Brent joins the show to tell us about his upcoming fundraising event called The Longest Night Run, and how it started in support of a friend battling cancer and has continued as a way for others to band together to battle their own darkness while running a relay around Steinbach on Dec 21st -- the longest night of the year -- all in support of Eden Health. We go on to chat about his writing projects, connecting with nature, mental health, changing perspectives and Paying Attention™, haikus (including haibuns, @runhaiku, and everything in between), favourite poets (hint: it's not Shel Silverstein), podcasts, The Green Book and other books, and so much more! Enjoy!
