I've listened to a few. They are interesting and not too technical, I enjoy them

I have listened to a few too and really enjoy the detailed explanation of how the drugs work (and sometimes don’t work) for different people.
I was really fascinated by them talking about how increasing the doses can sometimes work against you. Also the discussion around calorie intake and how increasing your calories often helps boost weight loss. I hadn't heard of calorie flux before.

I’m a regular and find much of it fascinating! There was a good one this week in the importance of strength training as we age. I do find Andrea mildly annoying though, especially the ‘does this podcast make me look fat?’ in the intro! 😂😂

I agree, it feels at odds with the podcast too! I can’t quite work out why she’s on it!
Such interesting discussions and I feel like I’m finally understanding so much more about GLP-1 medication and why it’s so hard to lose weight. Love it.

Thanks for the recommendation! I'll listen to it later.

Have bookmarked the "glp1s will I have to take them forever" roadside to listen to on my commute this week. Will come back and see the discussion after I've listened!
