Asher was 43 years old when he found out that there are some people out there who don't care whether people like them or not! It has understandably taken him a few days to process that, and this episode explores Fat tropes and the potential reasons why Fat people are so desperate to be likeable (#NotAllFatPeople).

Moral courage, dog whistles, and dealing with d1ckh3ads
It's not our fault that other people lack the moral courage to challenge their own bias, listen to other POVs, or respect people who question their beliefs. It's not our fault but, as is the way of the world, we still need to learn how to deal with it. In this episode, Asher processes his experience giving a guest lecture to a group of nutrition undergraduates, one of whom was determined to make his life miserable.

Who am I to judge
Asher came up with the idea for this podcast whilst recording the previous episode. So in a sense, this is a follow up. Today he talks about judgement - why we do it, when it becomes problematic, and how we can learn to stop judging ourselves and the people around us. (Ps. Asher doesn't know the answer to any of these things).
