Customer Reviews
An Amazing Pod!
Aubrey and Michael are such an entertaining and engaging pair. I always laugh and enjoy the episodes
More than that, the podcast has really opened my mind to how health and weight is viewed by society and how problematic that perception is.
Would recommend to all!
Love this podcast!!
Absolutely love love love this podcast… the energy, the connection between the two, the topics covered, the research done! Having been raised in an extremely fat phobic household, this show has been a massive help in getting my head around things.
A big fat five stars
I’ve been listening to this podcast for a long time now, and Michael and Aubrey have been so instrumental in helping me feel much more kindly about my body.
It helps that the episodes are also hilarious and so well researched.
