Great podcast

This podcast is excellent. It has so massively changed the way i consider and approach diet culture
Bringing down everyone now

I love this podcast for the hosts ability to critique and showcase the challenges we, (larger people) have to live with. I’ve been wary and now disappointed that well intended people are being targeted. I’m from an audience outside America so I realise we don’t all know how it works in the US, but making a British chef look the villain is not cool.
We ‘thins’ all need to hear this

Telling everyone I know (and even some I don’t) to listen to this podcast. Mike and Aubrey are both so smart — and so funny (which is good because sometimes they deal with some pretty dark subject matter). They are giving me language to express years-long discomfort with the way society treats bodies and (I hope) helping me become a better straight-size person as I confront the anti-fat bias within me.
Hated it at first but

I’ve actually got used to the shrieking laughter and now enjoying it.

I want this to be my falling asleep podcast because the hosts are so nice, but the problem is, it’s too damn interesting…
Amazing show

Glorifying obesity is like inverse racism, the excuse of skinny/white people to feel like they are also discriminated against 🙄
Great show!

This show is extremely entertaining and informative. Until I listened to it, diet and wellness culture whispered lies to me unopposed through a little little crevice in the back of my brain. Now incisive and entertaining hosts Aubrey and Mike have closed that crevice up with the sad truth: the spirit of celery juice is not coming to save us - and the happy-ish truth: many of the things it claimed to be saving us from were never dangers in the first place.
Outstanding

Absolutely LOVE your show. Funny, entertaining, well researched, really important topic. I’m learning lots and taking notes as a surgeon. Healthcare still has soooo much weight bias.
absolutely addicted to this!

i. am. hooked. on this podcast. Aubrey and Mike both have such good knowledge of the content, and being someone who has always been skeptical about diet culture, this is right up my alley.
So glad to have found this podcast

I am very surprised to be as hooked on this show as I am. As someone who is not overtly interested in the health, diet, nutrition etc. world I wasn’t sure I would relate to much of the content. As it turns out, I am very quickly getting through all of the episodes and I feel like Aubrey and Mike are my own friends. They discuss topics that are incredibly interesting, and on top of debunking things that are egregiously incorrect, they make me want to be a better critical thinker and overall better human being. Cannot recommend this podcast highly enough.
