The Reset by Sam Delaney Sam Delaney

Johann Hari started taking Ozempic, the new weight loss drug, in early 2023. But he was torn: he loved being slimmer but was concerned about the long term side-effects. He spent the last year travelling the world, speaking to experts and writing his fascinating new book Magic Pill - The Extraordinary Benefits and Disturbing Risks Of The New Weight Loss Drugs. He joined me on this week’s pod to discuss the drugs, his lifelong weight issues and the mental impact of our obsession with the way we look.

After seeking treatment and getting sober in the eighties, he put his efforts into helping others on their own recovery journeys. As well as working for years in the NHS, he has helped some of the biggest stars of entertainment get, and stay, sober, including Ozzy Osbourne. He joined me this week to share his incredible life story, his experiences of working on the road as a sober coach with global rock tours - and all of the wisdom he has picked up along the way.
