About the show
In this new 10-part series, journalist Sasha Borissenko investigates the truth - and debunks the myths - about weight in Aotearoa.
This is a podcast about fatness, but don't come here expecting any weight loss tips. The series will look at how society has conditioned us to feel about our weight, looking at everything from the messages we receive around food and dieting, to the societal structures in place influencing our decisions, with dozens of interviews with experts, government officials, industry representatives, and people with lived experience.
New episodes out every Sunday. Produced with the NZ Herald with support from NZ On Air.
