I’ve been listening to The Afternoon Snack for a while now, and it continues to challenge, inspire, and educate me every week. The conversations are honest and empowering — especially for anyone passionate about growth, health, and self-awareness.
It’s amazing how much they judge and identify folks by how “unfit” they are. I am handicapped and unfortunately went from being an athlete to now fall into that unfit category.
You two are made for each other….glad I can choose not to listen to you.
Love the podcast! Level-headed information and advice in confusing times. The latest episodes I’ve noticed Alex’s mic is acting up; might want to look into that!
Love listening to these every week. I’m here for the consistent messaging around good information based on science and not trends… but also for all the Alex and Meredith conversations about life.
I really appreciate the authenticity you two have and the honesty in sharing about your experiences and evidence based topics. Really fun to listen to! Thanks! ♥️
