Well done

I’m a doctor who treats patients with obesity and I appreciate this informative podcast and especially how much fun these two brothers have doing it. I wish I could have a podcast with my brother. It’s particularly hilarious how regretful they are about being so morally scrupulous for not getting any money from pharma.
