What if the foods you've labeled as "good" and "bad" are actually sabotaging your relationship with eating? Join us as we unravel the mysteries of food, nutrition, and body positivity with the ever-charming Mama Cusses. We begin with a nostalgic musical reference to keep you guessing before diving into Mama Cusses' unique journey from casual content creation to becoming a voice in the food and nutrition space. Her entertaining cook-off challenges with Tori Phantom get a special mention as we lament how TikTok's algorithm has shifted. You'll hear about practical healthy food swaps, like sneaking zucchini noodles into your spaghetti, and the importance of making changes out of self-love.
How do you foster a healthy relationship with food and body image in your kids while still grappling with your own struggles? This episode doesn't shy away from the tough questions. We discuss the significance of representation and the necessity of hearing from people of all body sizes. Mama Cusses shares valuable insights on using the right language to cultivate a positive food culture and understanding the genetic factors that influence body weight. We also explore effective strategies for talking to children about food, stressing a balanced viewpoint on nutritional foods versus indulgent treats.
Ever wonder why you can't stop munching on carrots or why chocolate feels like an instant mood lifter? We tackle quirky food obsessions and the humorous side effects of overconsumption, all while emphasizing the importance of a balanced diet. From the benefits of protein for muscle building to the pitfalls of 90s diet culture, we cover it all with plenty of laughs. We share our thoughts on the challenges and misconceptions around dietary aids like semaglutide and apple cider vinegar, and the frustrating misinformation spread by popular media. Tune in for an enlightening yet entertaining conversation that promises to leave you with a fresh perspective on food and nutrition.

Wellness Wisdom and Whimsy in the World of Dr. Tommy Martin
Ever wondered if laughter really is the best medicine? Strap in for a rollicking journey with Dr. Martin, where we uncover the hilariously uncomfortable reality of marathon "poop pantsing" and the wild world of health trends. From the nutritious rise of oatmeal mania to dissecting the societal pressures of food culture, we traverse the landscape of wellness with wit and wisdom. Dr. Martin, an adept physician and content creator, shares his own adventures in fatherhood, fitness, and navigating the health space's sea of misinformation.
Prepare to question everything you thought you knew about health and nutrition. We tackle the tough subjects: obesity as a chronic disease, the tempting lure of fast food, and the often unseen impact of rising food prices on our plates. In a world where social media influencers peddle questionable advice, we emphasize the importance of empathy and understanding, especially when economic challenges make healthy choices harder to come by. Dr. Martin and I don't hold back, fiercely debating the "overrated, underrated, or trash" of everything from gym culture to the controversial topic of raw milk.
We wrap things up with a light-hearted yet insightful discussion on the foods we love to hate and hate to love. Are frozen veggies and rice the unsung heroes of the kitchen? Is raw milk worth the risk? And let's not forget about the fascinating range of gourmet jelly beans—because who doesn't want to know what toothpaste flavor tastes like? Plus, get a sneak peek into the behind-the-scenes chaos of content creation and why you might want to reconsider where you store your milk. It's a marathon of mirth and mindful conversation, so lace up your sneakers and join us—it's one for the books.
