“If you like cherry-picked data, straw-man arguments, and pseudoscience shared by people completely lacking credentials, then this is the podcast for you!
I will say some of the more social elements align with current academic discussions of social structures and violence, but even those are...”Read full review »

“This used to be one of my favorite podcasts even though Aubrey is super annoying most of the time but without any warning this podcast suddenly became for subscribers only and they only put out an episode once a month?! They were barely putting out episodes before when it was for everyone and I...”Read full review »

“Interesting topics. I really WANT to like this show! I’m fine with opinions, they aren’t presenting themselves as experts or scientists. That being said, they should probably do a better job fact-checking when discussing serious topics.
Also… please stop the yelling and yell-laughing OR hire an...”Read full review »

“See spurious semicolon on Substack for a very thorough debunking of Michael and Aubrey’s total lack of rigor, written by an epidemiologist and biostatistician.”

“On premise this podcast seemed interesting, but unfortunately it’s nothing more than two people swapping personal opinions under a loose topic structure. I gave it a shot and was surprised at how lacking in depth, knowledge and facts it was. Not to mention, the hosts establish immediately that...”Read full review »

“I get that this show is meant to expose flaws and scrutinise but I think it really goes too far. Listening to the Jamie Oliver episode really exposes how little they know or are in touch with briths culture. Jamie Oliver, like everyone, has made mistakes and no doubt would do thing differently...”Read full review »

“Looked at this and it was complete garbage. Normally wouldn’t care, there’s lots of garbage podcasts out there, but it showed up as “recommended” on the Apple Podcasts front page. I don’t know who is doing the “recommending” but they probably need to be replaced.”

“I find these two hosts to be entertaining, and I've particularly enjoyed the episodes featuring Oprah, discussions about diet books, and the Erewhon tasting experience. However, I strongly disagree with Aubrey and her sycophantic co-host Michael on the topic of obesity. It's disheartening...”Read full review »

“Hosts are prone to cherry picking whenever the subject involves weight loss or physical activity. Attempts to improve one’s health quickly get labeled as eating disorders, gateways to one or unresolved issues with body image. They seem to lack self-awareness and often do what they accuse others...”Read full review »
