  • Support!

    Wow, answers to questions I didn’t even know to ask. So much is hidden but Kim and kat bring it to light! Been on a glp/gip with self pay which basically means on my own. No help , no support , no community and no information. That changed when I found This podcast!

  • Not bad. Not good

    This is a lot of giggling, rambling conversation. I feel like I’m listening to 12 year old girls. Not how I want to face my healthcare.

  • Annoying content

    But getting increasingly silly and loud. It's more gossip and giggling than it is GLP-1 news/experiences. Unfortunate. Lots of better podcasts out there..

  • Topics are great

    Great topics and discussion, however the sound quality especially when guests are on is lacking. Sometimes the conversation is hard to understand.
