Vanessa seems like a very well spoken and researched woman. But I can no longer take her seriously because of the work she produces with her co host of the intermittent fasting podcast.

I’ve listened to a few episodes now and she has had on some great guests, but it’s unbelievable how often she chuckles and laughs after every comment - comments that are not meant to be funny.
