Raff's Brain
Raff’s Brain is my playground for goofy stories, real-life adventures, and experiments in how openness, creativity, and technology can bring people together and improve our lives. Expect Hot Yoga Problems, Riffin’ with Raff, Drive & Jive / Walk & Talk, and various zany side projects that are sometimes cathartic, sometimes ridiculous, and hopefully worth your time.

Raff's Brain #168: Hot Yoga Problems - 300 Classes Deep!
Rob Raffety hits 300 classes at Core Power and he's not just sweaty—he’s reflective. This milestone kicks off a classic Hot Yoga Problems stream where Rob waxes philosophical (and absurd) on performance, mutual respect between man and mat, and how GI Joe mirrors yoga showdowns.
He also floats the idea of tracking every class with AI, ranking each session, and even analyzing his diet-to-yoga performance correlation. Oh, and squirrels. There are squirrels.
🔹 Highlights:
- The origin story: Rob’s first ever Core Power class at VeeCon
- Yoga as combat: How Storm Shadow and Snake Eyes fit into today’s practice
- The brilliance (and danger?) of AI-powered self-assessment
- Should we rate every yoga session on a 1–7 scale? Let’s find out.
- Backyard wildlife and philosophical musings on chipmunk-squirrel diplomacy
If you’re part yogi, part nerd, and all-in on self-improvement with a dose of humility and humor—this episode is for you.
