#1866 Why Making Babies is Getting Harder - David Gillespie

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/2fb3740d-3436-44af-8cc0-a91900716aa5/clips/f5af56a0-5e95-419f-8a0d-b2c900913c11/transcript

According to David Gillespie, artificial and "sugar-free" sweeteners are not the harmless alternatives we've been led to believe they are. Of course you’re not surprised. In fact, they're really sh*t. Scientifically speaking. Apparently, they hijack the brain's expectation of energy, leading to increased hunger and overeating, and may also disrupt gut health and metabolism. More recent compounds - like sugar alcohols and "keto" sweeteners - are framed as potentially more dangerous, with emerging research suggesting links to blood clots and cardiovascular risk. The core message in this episode is that there's no "free lunch" in biology - sweetness without energy comes with consequences. Which is personally very annoying, 'cause I inhale that sh*t. Sorry to disappoint you. I’ll try harder.

#2137 What's The Deal With Artificial Sweeteners? - David Gillespie

Gotta say I was in brand new territory with this conversation and this guest and honestly, I loved it and her. I felt somewhat unprepared and unqualified (just a feeling) but the gift for me was that I got to ask a bunch of questions that I didn't know the answers to (at all). My eyes were opened a little, I learned brand new stuff (always good) and I got to explore a different area of the human experience (for me) through the insights and stories of someone who's been on a wild ride. Perfect. Our guest Daviana Memont, used to be Dave - a Marine, Diesel Mechanic, Jacked Bro, National level powerlifter (6ft, 250lbs) and husband. I can guarantee that most of you will be surprised by her attitude towards when (and if) people should be able to transition, the pronoun thing, her issues with the LGBTQ+ community and lots more. Strap in, it's a ride.

Enjoy.

TYP's favourite Clinical Psychologist (Dr. Lillian) is back on the mic, pushing, probing, educating and enlightening us with her super smart brain and her silky-smooth voice. This was the most laid back and chatty episode we've done - kind of like an ‘easy listening radio station' with an overlay of psychology, human behaviour and education.

Enjoy.
