In an already over saturated market of fitness, food and career based podcasts, Latoya Shauntay Snell wanted to explore beyond the limitations of her blog and social media and interview ordinary and well known people in the sports and food industry to discuss what brought them into their respective fields for five or so minutes. The Running Fat Chef Podcast is a weekly-ish podcast that explores beyond athletes and public figures' Google and Wikipedia pages to push guests to tell an authentic chapter from their own book. Why? Well because we're multilayered and more than titles and the accolades that people adorn us for in our everyday life.Despite the diverse set of stories shared on this program, Latoya challenges her guests - and even herself - to answer the simple but layered question: When we strip away our professional roles or what we represent to our loved ones and those who admire us, who are we to ourselves?

I’m here for ALL of it!

Latoya is real, talks about real things in a way that makes sense. There’s no fluff or gimmicks. Also, you don’t have to be an athlete or a foodie. The topics bring a lot aha moments, that you can use in everyday life.

Getting real with the Running Fat/Phat Chef!

I totally appreciate this honest, open, and unapologetic podcast. I am a novice athlete who found Latoya on Instagram and completely fell in love with her workouts, discussions, food porn (she is an amazing culinary Goddess), and absolute realness! If you’re looking for a podcast that discusses athleticism unboxed you have come to the right space! Thank you Latoya for keeping me entertained and motivated to stay fit.
