I’ll leave 2 stars because the podcast is full of vital information for using carnivore to turn your metabolic health around and even save your life; however, Dr. Baker consistently degrades fat women by putting down the body positivity “movement” (he’s too self absorbed to realize it’s a human right to love oneself, and not a fad). On the latest episode he quoted someone he admires that said “I don’t care about sedentary people; nobody should be sedentary” (insert laugh). Then the woman he was interviewing said she liked that line (at least she added helpful information for sedentary people after that). They forgot they weren’t in the gym & that we (fat people) were listening so we could get support. We’ve normalized this kind of degradation of others. I will buy this woman’s book despite her lack of courage to correct her friend (most people with the power to do so choose not to correct Baker). I’ll read it because I don’t want to be fat & sick another day. Dr. Baker is the epitome of how many in the medical profession see us (fat women). They don’t care about us. We’re mere objects to project shame onto. They blame, shame and kick us while we’re down, and will allow us to die over these arrogant biases. The irony is the carnivore diet will save me from this subconscious hatred as I grow older, so thanks for the info doc. But there has to be safer spaces for me (us), and this is not one of them. Dr. Baker forgets his oath to do no harm and I hope his peers help him correct his behavior, because my words won’t move the needle. 7/10/24 And now we have Shawn interviewing Ian Weeks, a man who says we should follow the 10 Commandments, yet supports a presidential candidate who’s broken almost all of them. Shawn allowed him to debase American families and ask for money several times and threaten the lives of women who’s bodily autonomy has been stripped away by evangelizing for an adjudicated rapist and convicted felon. He mentioned carnivore for a second, but mostly this was a political campaign stop and now Shawn’s disgrace runs deeper than fat shaming. Do better doc. 1 star Bro.

I respect Dr Baker’s intellectual curiosity and his scientific level of questioning of his guests but I‘lol take a hard pass on his interviews with the crackpots and the pseudo experts who are doing their version of a make money quick scheme (you’ll know them when you hear them). Too many podcast...Read full review »

Lots of good info however quite a few of the interviewers need to learn to not interrupt the guests constantly. Makes it tough to listen to at times.
