This podcast explores real patient experiences with GLP-1 medications like Mounjaro and Ozempic. Each episode is built around real discussions from online patient communities and forums, where people are sharing their lived experiences in extraordinary detail. I should be upfront: the conversation you're about to hear is generated using AI. But the stories behind it are entirely human. I created this podcast because the volume of valuable discussion happening in patient forums is enormous, and I needed an easier way to consume it and stay across what patients are actually experiencing.

    Episode 4: Aspirational Salads

    Someone asked a Zepbound community a simple question: what's your strangest food aversion since starting the medication? Over 400 people responded. What came back was a fascinating, funny, and sometimes heartbreaking catalogue of foods that have become intolerable. Lifelong egg lovers who now gag at the sight of them. Coffee addicts who can't finish a cup. A British person who can't drink tea. People buying what one commenter called "aspirational salads" only to throw them out a week later. This episode unpacks the most common aversions, the wildly specific ones, the foods people are relieved to lose, and the ones they genuinely grieve. We also explore the unexpected patterns: accidental sobriety, changed taste perception, texture as a new enemy, and why some people's favourite foods are the first to go.

    Episode 3: Eating Enough Is the Hard Part

    This episode is built around a thread from a very large Zepbound community. Someone who lost 40 kilos, hit their goal weight, and felt worse than when they started. Dizzy, exhausted, headaches for months. It took a routine physical with their actual primary care doctor to connect the dots. Nearly 200 people responded, and the patterns are hard to ignore.

    Episode 2: The Side Effect Nobody Planned For

    This episode covers a topic that's generating a lot of discussion in GLP-1 patient communities: Fertility. Specifically, people who had been told they couldn't conceive, who had been through years of trying, multiple rounds of IVF, and repeated loss, reporting unexpected pregnancies after starting glp-1s.
