A day in the life with podcaster Jaron Myers

Comedian Jaron Myers and podcast co-host Tim Stone are the voices behind Things I Learned Last Night. Myers shared with us what a typical day looks like when he’s not on tour, and instead at home in Kansas City, Missouri, with his wife Reagan.

Every morning I wake up and get in my inflatable hot tub. While I sit there, relaxing with my coffee, I listen to soothing music on the Calm app. Taking a moment in the morning to myself really helps me clear my mind and emotionally prepare for the day.

Then I open the Peloton app and get my workout in for the morning. I’m really motivated by the stats tracker and daily streak rewards to keep me moving. And I love their wide variety of coaches and class types, from intense cardio workouts to mindful stretches.

To start my workday, I open my Google Tasks app and write down any and all tasks I can think of that need to get done that week. I go through them and prioritize when each one needs to be done, and because it syncs directly with my calendar, I can see when I’ll have free time to accomplish them. Having this in front of me makes me feel so much more in control of my workflow and downtime.

Speaking of downtime, I spend most of mine playing Lords Mobile. If I’m at the airport or I have an extra 10 minutes between tasks, you’ll catch me growing my empire and strategizing how to defeat the next enemy. I love the challenge each level provides. It’s not too easy, and not too difficult.

When I finish work, I settle in and open Paramount+. I love strategy game shows because I always imagine that I would get cast on them and win. I’m a couch critic through and through.

Then I end the night with a classic: Candy Crush Saga. I like a game that I don’t have to think too hard about but is still fun and rewarding. I can let go of the stress of the day while I match colors and win points.
