Bet you can’t wog to it just once...
All too often, exercise music ignores melody for rhythm: thumpa-thumpa-thumpa-step-step-step-step-ho-hum. Why not let your heart sing to the song while your feet jog along? That’s why this week’s wog, Hooked On Melodics—and it’s a Wog-a-Thon at that—features some of my favorite pure melodies in pop music, without sacrificing a steady beat. The Beatles, Guster, Collective Soul, Sarah McLachlan, Til Tuesday, UB40—these are just a few of the artists who will stroke your eardrums while you walk and jog. It’s 63 minutes of brisk exercise bliss, and you’ll only find it at Podwogging.com.

Post-Valentine Get Down
Now that you’re addicted, face it—you gotta keep wogging! Let Robert Palmer, who rocked the 80s with dance pop R&B, give you the sickness AND the cure. This week’s wog features 39 minutes of delightful dance—er, walk and jog—music guaranteed to be simply irresistable. So get what’s coming, stop sneaking through the alley, and get a bad case of wogging. If Mr. Palmer were still with us, he’d tell you get over to Podwogging.com to check out his playlist. Do-lang!

Let’s hope it all works out
Love is a crazy thing, and what better way to celebrate the week leading up to Valentine’s Day than to hit the trail with a pod full of songs about the agony (Ted Nugent’s 8-minute jogging opus Stranglehold) and the ecstacy (the Drfter’s Magic Moment) of it all? If you can get through the Slings and Eros (this week’s wog), the Bard Himself may smile upon you. Plus Fine Young Cannibals, Bo Diddley, Wilson Pickett and others...it’s all part of a 36-minute workout “with benefits.” After the heavy breathing, check out my other playlists at Podwogging.com.

Just give me a little bit more...
Time, of course. So this week’s wog is another collection of songs about that elusive thing we never seem to have enough of. Weighing in on the topic are The Verve, INXS, the Stones, the Byrds, and others—even Glass Bottle! Not that a glass bottle will save you any. Time, that is. Thank the Muses that all songs have it, though. Go to Podwogging.com for more—it’ll take you just a few seconds!
