Episode 78: Why We STOPPED Prescribing This $200 Weight Loss Pill (Wegovy Oral vs. Injectable Truth)

Episode 78

Monday, February 2, 2026 • Duration 47:31

After getting completely hacked and losing our entire social media presence, we're pivoting HARD - and it might be exactly what we needed.

In this raw, unfiltered episode, Dr. Matthew Weiner and Zoe break down:

- WHY we stopped prescribing the "new" Wegovy pill (spoiler: it's 5 years old and we have data you need to hear)

- The GLP-1 medication coming in 2026 that could change everything - Retatrutide clinical trial results revealed

- How to get REAL Eli Lilly medication for $150/month (not compounded) through a program most people don't know exists

- The AI-powered weight loss app Dr. Weiner is coding himself that does what he does in the office (beta testers wanted!)

- Why we're ditching Instagram for Reddit and YouTube - and the surprising reason long-form content beats 30-second clips

PLUS: Real patient stories including a VSG + breast cancer + GLP-1 combination success, the truth about oral vs. injectable semaglutide, home-ground flour health claims investigated, and why that "bulge" when you cough isn't what you think it is.

If you're on GLP-1s, considering them, or just tired of BS weight loss advice - this episode cuts through the noise with real data, real experience, and real talk.
