All time favorite podcast

Aubrey & Michael are the best friends I’ve never met. If you’re mid thirties and grew up in a diet obsessed environment ALL the references hit.

Reasons to listen:

#1 The amount of research is impressive. I can never again uncritically accept nutrition study findings.
#2 I’m less of a jerk. They helped me recognize and end my own anti fat behaviors.
#3 it’s super entertaining. The format of the show (hosts take turns teaching one another about the topic) is great. You get to be shocked/angered at the same time as Michael or Aubrey!

Thank you Aubrey and Michael

First of all I almost had a wreck laughing when you tasted the celery juice. You two are so funny together. I’m enjoying the deep-dive, origin-story synthesis of American ridiculousness that got us into so many of these hilarious-in-hindsight predicaments like the Presidential Fitness what-the-eff-were-they-thinking. Although that is a shared American ordeal that can unite our fractured country at least for a nanosecond of conversation. And if somebody says “oh I thought that presidential fitness test was super fun” you know to get away fast. You have helped me to organize my own baked-in fat self-hate, the circus of diet hopes and highs and lows, the perils of being a weight loss Judas, the thick sludge of stupid opinions and concern trolling we all have to wade through. Thank you for radicalizing me.

LOVE this podcast!

This podcast is funny, thoughtful, and informative. Audrey and Mike have great chemistry. I now have a reason to look forward to Tuesday mornings because that means there's a new episode!

My favorite podcast!

As a researcher, I appreciate the critical review of research and the presentation of facts. These two are knowledgeable AND entertaining. I hope they around for many years to come.

My favorite podcast ever.

Snarky, warm and opinionated. Really deepened my understanding of the topic in a very entertaining way. Also, Aubrey and Mike have a great chemistry and are just fun to listen to.

my new favorite podcast

I love this podcast. Mike and Aubrey are my soul mates. I love the sass with their well-researched topics. I work in a college counseling center with students so brutalized by fat shaming, diet culture, etc. This is a great place to send them for an introduction to shutting off the never-enough megaphone so they can begin to love and accept their bodies and themselves. Thank you, thank you, thank yoi!

my favorite podcast...

this is regularly funny and well thought out and clever--i really enjoy listening even multiple times. only thing is that the files are regularly broken so episodes won't play on audible and even on this podcasts website. please fix these bugs!
