S5 Ep4 : Everything is connected

Season 5

Wednesday, November 6, 2024 • Duration 53:45

Today we chat gut health.

We explore the different things that impact out gut, why jumping straight to restriction or elimination of certain foods or a low FODMAPs diet is not recommended. We touch on prebiotics, probiotics and the impact of trauma or out emotional state on our gut functioning.

A couple of gut health specialist dietitians we like are Marnie founder of Fork That and Joanna at Everyday Nutrition.

We also mention this episode of The Imperfect's Podcast with Professor Felice Jacka.

The best things Meg ate this week were from Flower Child in Chatswood (seriously food cold brew and food) and Bo Larn in Bondi Junction.

S4 Ep7 : Life's Too Short To Watch "Shockumentaries" in School

Season 4

Wednesday, August 28, 2024 • Duration 29:34

This week's episode features Susan's middle and youngest daughters, and their takes on watching That Sugar Film in PE. In a shocking turn of events Susan's youngest daughter got in the car one day last week after school and said "Guess what WE watched today" and sure enough it was That Sugar Film.

Argh, this film refuses to disappear. A heightened conversation ensued!

We thought it might be interesting to recreate the conversation minus Susan's swearing. The interview is in two parts as it was harder than it should have been to get everyone all in the same place at the same time. You'll hear both girls are fairly steady in their feelings about food and their body, and are fortunately not swayed by the film.

This is exactly what we talk about all the time. We are working hard to change the world, but until we can we need to protect our children from Diet Culture by making our homes a safe have from it.

You can sign the petition to remove this film from schools here

S4 Ep6 : The 'real' history of the Mediterranean Diet

Season 4

Wednesday, August 21, 2024 • Duration 17:09

We have a short (and high energy) chat for you today. We took the opportunity of being in the same room to record an episode straight off the back of our live "Diet Culture Spring Clean" webinar.

We chat about an episode of the 'The Rest is History' podcast about the history of Italian food which is very different to the myths and assumptions that are made about it. It's fascinating and you might want to listen to it here.

Meg's favourite thing this week was Recipetin Eats Dahl - cheap, filling, meat-free and delish!

S4 Ep4 : Olympic Bodies

Season 4

Wednesday, August 7, 2024 • Duration 35:30

At this goes out we are halfway through the Paris 2024 Olympic games.

There's bodies on display and a lot of body commentary. Some of it is great, positive, inclusive and recognising that 'fit' doesn't have look and celebrating all the amazing things that different bodies can do. But unfortunately, a lot of it is awful. Objectification of both men and women, body shaming, and criticism, so we chat about that. Makingthe most of the good and managing the bad.

We are loving Ilona Maher's instagram posts as well as lots of Olympic themed memes and humour.

Meg's favourite thing this week was Recipetin Eats Dahl - cheap, fillig, meat-free and delish!

S4 Ep3 : Ramble Chat

Season 4

Wednesday, July 31, 2024 • Duration 46:22

This is what happens when we haven't caught up in a while and don't have a topic planned.

We hope you enjoy our chat today, we talk food, cottage cheese getting out of it's scope of practice by pretending to be a wrap and then go off on many tangents.

This is the butter chicken recipe Meg loves even more than 'the one in the book' and this is the braised fennel recipe that was Meg's favourite thing this week, just amazing with grilled lamb (cutlets or chops) dusted with Chinese 5 spice and a little salt.

Susan also mentioned the delicious slow cooked brisket.

Title of today's episode taken from Adam Buxton's excellent podcast and Films to be Buried With and No Such Thing as A Fish are also podcast's that we love.

S3 Ep27 Season Finale - Revisiting Boring Selfcare

Season 3

Wednesday, June 26, 2024 • Duration 41:27

Back for the final episode before we take a little break we thought it was a good time to revisit 'Boring Self Care'.

We last spoke about this in October last year but in winter and summer we often need different ways to look after ourselves. From skin checks to bulk cooking, from deciding between early morning movement and a bit of extra sleep, we chat about what helps us, especially in school holidays when the routines can be thrown out.

Meg's favourite thing this week was this cake by the fabulous Yotam Ottolenghi closely followed by Nagi's laksa which makes an appearance on the pod everytime she makes it!

The Frozen Green Pea and Ham recipe Meg mentioned is also here as promised!

We're preparing to launch another round of The Non-Diet Way.
