    I miss the old intro :( but always happy to see progress for the channel and Bob and Brad. Hope he’s doing well
  • @sandraclark2235
    I hope Bob is doing well. It's very nice of Mike not to insist that the channel be named "Brad and Mike." He's a class act. We should all be grateful for the wonderful free physical therapy tips they provide.
  • @ChaplainDeanna
    My grandson is heading off to college in the fall and he’s going to study — drum roll please —physical therapy. I told him to watch Bob and Brad to learn a lot.
  • @SunFlowersCutie
    I do miss seeing Bob and Brad at the same time, but I am also glad to know that Bob is still active behind the scenes/camera and involved in the vid’s contents too. Will always support Bob and great job Brad for keeping it going!
  • @Bugsybear2
    I'm glad you keep the channel going because I get so much helpful info. Love all three of you.
  • @nancydee6106
    No matter how i sleep i still miss Bob! 😂😢❤
  • @carriyoga
    🌿🕊I've loved "Bob & Brad", and let's ADD Mike❣️"Bob, Brad & Mike" sending Love to Brad🙏🕊
  • @suekelly3875
    I am left side sleeper for 62 years (I am 79 yrs old), I got in the habit during my first pregnancy. Also in that positon, I sleep with right knee raised(similar to Mike's sleeping position). I sleep fitfully these days, but have learned to endure. Just a warning for Mike..you will get a wrinkled left cheek like mine. Not much I can do about mine now. Haha. Happy sleeping!
  • I miss Bob too and wish him well, he's a lovely and generous person. Thankyou Bob !
  • @patteegee9506
    According to most Cosmetic Surgeons, sleeping on your back helps to reduce new facial wrinkles from forming. They can always tell which side a person sleeps on by the increased wrinkles on one side compared to the other. This must be the explanation for Brad's youthful appearance!
  • @runcoweezrun8143
    Mike's sleeping positions: 1) Pharoah resting in Pyramid 2) Sleeping Beauty 3) Baby ready for a Desitin Rub 4) Fighting to get relief after having Taco Bell Bean Burritos 5) Doubling for a CPR Manikin 6) Conducting Armpit Flatulence Orchestra 😁
  • @Timoteophillips
    As a massage therapist, I often refer my clients to Bob and Brad for home care tips on various subjects ….plus I also learn! Love the often corny sense of humour.
  • @gaywells7340
    I had right hip replacement 8 months ago. I got Bob & Brad’s 8” wedge pillow before surgery. It’s wonderful for back sleepers. I’m still sleeping this way because now it’s not comfortable to be on either hip. But a great bonus: I think my facial wrinkles are fewer and less deep! I’m 75 years old and have used a satin pillowcase for 30 years, never smoked, so my wrinkles aren’t bad at all, but I do think my skin is smoother since gravity is pulling it to the back for 7-8 hours a day.
  • @lokicooper4690
    Side sleeping on the left side also helps if you have acid reflux. Mike sleeps in what we call the Recovery Position in first aid. It’s how I sleep as well. I also hug a pillow while I’m sleeping. I can’t sleep on my back, or fully on my stomach (both bad for acid reflux). I do sleep on my side too, but the most comfortable for me is the recovery position.
  • @ellenspear50
    To me, since sleep is often elusive, the best one is the one I'm comfortable and can fall asleep in.
  • @bark2931
    These guys are literally addressing my biggest problems in real time. Thank you
  • @ragamuffinukes2779
    ---...Mike made me giggle when he said, "Just find what's comfortable & go to sleep..." I'm a side sleeper & really valued your show today. Prayers for Bob, & all of yous, Brad Mike & families🙏. Thanks for being the BEST physical therapists on the internet... Happy trails from a solo lady van dweller, Ms. CharLee👵 Nikki🐕 Angel🚐
  • @sharonbates516
    Prayers for Bob and hope he's doing well. Mike is doing great, he had a tough roll to fill. It's an adjustment for everyone. It was kind of like watching a 20 year old advertising wrinkle cream, you want to see it work for an older person. But what y'all do is for all ages so it works good with Mike too. Love watching your videos, very helpful.
  • @SodoMojo22
    Like the new intro. Mike is a keeper. After being a left side sleeper my whole life a bad shoulder has forced me to the right side...some good tips in this video to hopefully help me get a better nights rest.
