  • Why BMI Is More Controversial Than You Think
    May 26 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    BMI (body mass index) is one of the most controversial tools in health and fitness.
    Some people say it’s outdated, inaccurate, and harmful. Others argue it’s still one of the most useful population health tools we have.

    So… who’s right?

    In this episode, we break down:
    - where BMI came from
    - what it was originally designed for
    - what BMI actually measures
    - whether BMI is useful for individuals
    - why athletes and muscular people complicate the conversation
    - how BMI relates to disease risk and mortality
    - the biggest misconceptions about BMI
    - weight stigma and the ethics of discussing body weight
    - whether BMI should still be used in healthcare today

    We also discuss how social media has shaped the BMI debate — and why many online conversations oversimplify both the science and the criticism.

    This is not a “BMI is perfect” episode.
    And it’s not a “BMI is meaningless” episode either.

    As usual, we aim for nuance over outrage.

    We hope you like it.

  • Alcohol and Fat Loss: What the Science ACTUALLY Says
    May 19 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    Alcohol is one of the most widely consumed substances in the world, but the science around it is more confusing than most people realise.

    In this episode, we break down what the evidence actually says about alcohol, fat loss, appetite, muscle retention, and of course, a big disclaimer about health.

    We also discuss:
    - Why alcohol research is so difficult
    - The problems with observational studies
    - The “red wine is healthy” narrative
    - Drinking culture
    - Dose-dependent risk

    As always, the goal is objective and nuanced discussion, not exaggerated black and white views. Whilst we are absolutely not encouraging alcohol intake, we think it is a good idea for you to understand what the research actually says.

  • What Childbirth Was REALLY Like. Honest New Parent Q&A
    May 12 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    We are back from our break, and it gives us great pleasure to introduce you to our baby.

    (For privacy reasons, we are not showing her face or telling the world her name. The thumbnail is a stock photo and not of her, because some people on the internet can be creepy).

    In this episode, we answer the questions everyone wanted to ask us about childbirth, postpartum recovery, and the first few weeks of parenthood.

    We talk about:
    - pain relief
    - epidurals
    - sleep deprivation
    - tearing
    - postpartum depression
    - life with a newborn

    Plus all the gross and emotional stuff that you would expect from an unfiltered episode.

    We also share parts of the birth experience, what surprised us most, and the things nobody fully prepares you for before becoming parents.

    This is our most sleep-deprived episode yet. We hope you like it.
