  • Let the guests speak

    Great premise and guests, but I wish the host would stop talking after she asks a question so the guest can answer fully. Not so helpful when a host is speaking over their guest. Again, though, good content and premise.

  • Liz Barlak episode

    I've written before to say that this is simply one of the best podcast out there and that Gin is an incredible interviewer! However, the guest in this episode 504 is so judgmental and not genuine, and I wish she would be called out on it. She talks about over eaters anonymous and how no one in there was losing weight without stating that the point of OA is not to lose weight it is to get over your food addiction and love yourself. She said she went for a year and was the skinniest person there a... more

  • GLP-1 Hate

    I have been following Gin for years and have listened to all her content. In the most recent episode, I heard her (again) speaking about GLP-1 injections disparingly as if everyone who takes them is taking the easy way out and doesn’t want to do the hard work.

    This idea is so outdated. Diabetes is a disease and GLP-1s help to treat that disease. They are not a silver bullet and anyone who takes them must still “do the work” but they give people a fighting chance.

    It is a shame to hear Gin co... more

  • Poor Christoph Bamberg

    If he even wants to come back on, I hope Gin invites him back and lets him speak for at least half the interview. I can only assume that because he's young she couldn't respect him. This interview was appalling.

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Episod 513: Jasmin
Q: What would you tell someone just starting out with intermittent fasting?
Start with a clear approach: open your window with a nutritionally dense, whole-food meal, then allow any other foods afterward; track progress with photos and simple tools, and don't panic if progress stalls—adjust for health changes or life factors.
Episode 510: Jayne Hey
Q: What does your current lifestyle look like with ADF and travel between two countries?
She explains splitting time between the UK and New Zealand, using ADF with a 500-calorie down day and longer eating windows on up days, and relying on meal kits and structured plans to keep meals varied and satisfying.
Episode 510: Jayne Hey
Q: How has menopause and thyroid management affected your fasting journey?
She describes slow weight loss during menopause, an underactive thyroid, and how shifting thyroid medication timing helped her adherence and energy, with ongoing adjustments and monitoring.
Episode 510: Jayne Hey
Q: What brought you to Intermittent Fasting, and when did that start?
Jayne recounts starting in January 2022 after a friend introduced her to 16:8 and Clean Fast, initially for weight loss and health benefits, gradually adopting more flexible approaches as she learned.
Episode 505: Michelle White
Q: What would you tell someone just starting out with Intermittent Fasting?
Stop trying to reach for that body you don't have and focus on being the best in your own body.
