Something to Talk About podcast: Michelle Bridges regrets the Biggest Loser

Michelle Bridges responds to current-day criticism of The Biggest Loser and explains why she "won't wear it anymore".

Having originally cemented her status as one of the most famous fitness trainers in Australia courtesy of her role on The Biggest Loser, Michelle Bridges is the first to acknowledge many will always associate her with the legacy of a reality TV series now widely deemed problematic.

In a frank and wide-ranging conversation, the personal trainer, TV personality and businesswoman responds to current-day criticism of the show and explains why she "won't wear it anymore".

She also has a lot to say about the changes she is seeing in her own body as she settles into her early 50s; shares her thoughts on how her working-class background and being raised by a single mum in the 1970s have shaped her attitudes toward money and motherhood - and reflects on what she learned about herself after a DUI charge three years ago made national headlines.
