Raff's Brain #110: Hot Yoga Problems - I (Don't) Want My Baby Back (Bends)!

Rob Raffety

Ever been ambushed by a yoga pose? Rob returns to the hot yoga studio and gets completely wrecked by his longtime nemesis: the dreaded baby back bend. In this episode, he channels his frustration into song (literally), serving up an improvised riff on the iconic Chili’s jingle with a side of spicy takes on yoga vulnerability, backup cameras, and the glory of pancakes for dinner.

Whether you’re a yogi, a Chili’s fan (or not), or just here for the ride, you’ll laugh, cringe, and maybe even reconsider your milkshake choices. Tune in for a hot mess of insight, parody, and perseverance.
