  • Hands down the best nutrition and fitness podcast out there!!

    Michael and Kate are absolutely fantastic. As an RD, I am always doing my best to stay on top of the current health and nutrition research. Michael and Kate do an excellent job of discussing the science and the relevant evidence in a way that is informative, unbiased, and incredibly entertaining. And they always touch on the nuance of these issues which is so important!! I’ve been listening for years and it always brightens my Monday commute home from work!!

  • Friendly, Informative, and Much-Needed

    Michael and Kate combine expertise and genuine enthusiasm for fitness in a way that’s sorely lacking these days. No overhype, no toxicity, no product-pushing—just deep dives by and for fitness geeks (and the curious rest of us).

  • My favorite fitness podcast!

    I absolutely love this podcast. I look forward to each new episode and I’m sad when Kate and Michael go on break. This podcast is so incredibly educational and allows you to make educated decisions versus relying on influencers. And Kate and Michael are great co-hosts! Very funny and relatable.
