“All the host does is read out other people’s articles.
Also just talk about themselves for a lot of the podcast - I find myself drifting in and out and skipping large sections.”

“I came across Victoria’s podcast quite by accident, actually after she changed her name to Vinny and pronouns to they/them. I started listening and IMMEDIATELY knew this person was put in my path by some divine intervention. I listened to quite a few of their later episodes that called out to me...”Read full review »

“I look forward to each episode and appreciate the regularity.
As a POC, I really appreciate your awareness of racial/ethnic intersectional perspective.
I laugh out loud each time you say ‘take my money!’ To each bad diet program you once tried! I feel that ;)”

“Tried really hard to enjoy this and learn but just completely misses the mark on a lot of things including contradictions within the same episode to support the point of the moment. Also all the constant singing and shouting makes it hard to listen with headphones be warned”

“I’ve struggled with weight and dieting for most of my adult life. I guess the most extreme thing I did was go on a “medically supervised” fast for 6 months. Nothing but a powdered drink for every meal. I will say it was the most efficient way to gain back 100 pounds in nothing flat. Diets don’t...”Read full review »
