  • Okay on the science, BAD on the vocabulary and vocal habits

    This woman needs to check the use of the word “literally.” Your phone was not literally blowing up.

  • Truly holistic approach

    What I appreciate so much about Abbey is how she undertakes a holistic approach to her analysis - and I don’t just mean connecting the body to the mind. I appreciate that more importantly she analyzes how the systems and cultural influences around us affect our understanding of body/ies. I value anyone who integrates how the personal is political and the political is personal within their profession (especially one that is usually SO micro-level focused, as traditional dieticians so often are). ... more

  • Like the advice but...

    Does anyone else have a hard time listening because her voice can get extremely high and shrill? I like what she says but I cannot stand the constant high notes she hits when talking to the point I have to stop the podcast. She has a normal voice when speaking to other ppl on the podcast but when she monologues it's way too much-I don't understand the change in octave suddenly when she's ranting. Ugh what a bummer.

  • Big Ag Big Miss episode

    Super disappointed in this one, been listening since episode 1 but the dismissal of animal experience was gross. Talking about how animals have ‘plenty of space’ inside a barn never seeing sunlight or being outside.. just say ‘suffering doesn’t matter ;)’. I get there may be no nutritional difference in meat but to dismiss the fact that to animals there’s a very big difference in quality of life was disgusting and disappointing.

  • Loved the stress illness episode

    I related to this episode on a personal level. Having dealt with IBS my whole life. I wish I could have found someone like Dr Clark. Thank you so much for sharing, this is a great podcast!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Cult of “Good Womanhood” - Tradwives, Soft Life & Maternal Martyrdom with Amber Horsburgh
Q: What does the soft life trend look like on social media or in content online?
Amber explains that soft life mirrors a life of leisure, prioritizing rest and slow living, but often still relies on optimization and status signals, with costly, multi-step routines and consumer choices that tie back to maintaining appearance and comfort.
The Generation Who Forgot How to Think - How Social Media & AI is RUINING Kids’ Competence & Childhood with Dr Kaitlyn Regehr
Q: Can you walk us through the key risks of excessive social media use for kids and what specific literature suggests about these risks?
The literature highlights the attention economy as driving harmful and disinformative content that captures kids' time and can lead to risks like body dysmorphia, exposure to violent material, and poorer cognitive development. It also emphasizes that the problem extends beyond time spent to the quality of content and the contexts in which it is consumed, with particular concern for how AI and digital tools become embedded in schooling and daily life.
Are Hormone Balance Diets BS!? Dr. Natalie Crawford Breaks Down the Key to Women’s Fertility & Hormone Health
Q: How should someone approach testing or lab work for hormones?
Rather than chasing a full hormone panel, focus on symptoms, track the cycle, understand ovulation, and work with a clinician who can interpret tests in the context of the menstrual phase and overall health.
Are Hormone Balance Diets BS!? Dr. Natalie Crawford Breaks Down the Key to Women’s Fertility & Hormone Health
Q: From a clinical perspective, what does it mean to have balanced hormones?
Hormones are a communication system that varies throughout the cycle; balance means hormones are functioning normally and responding appropriately, not that they stay at a fixed level, and tests should be interpreted in the context of where a person is in their cycle.
The POOP Conversation You KNOW You Need (Stinky Farts, Colon Cleanses, IBS + Food Intolerances) with Dr. Trisha Pasricha
Q: Can we make our poop not stick and reduce smells, and what practical steps help with gas and odor?
Sulfur-containing foods drive odor; practical tips include using odor-neutralizing strategies like specific dietary adjustments, considering products like Pepto-Bismol to reduce sulfur odors when needed, and normalizing occasional concerns about public restrooms while focusing on overall gut health.
