About this listen

In this episode, Stephanie and Jason explore the ethical landscape surrounding body weight and how it is often connected to morality and judgment in North American culture. We discuss the complex factors contributing to changes in body weight, such as increased carbohydrate consumption and the impact of modern economic and food systems and argue against simplistic explanations that either blame genetics or individual choices and highlight the need to acknowledge the broader societal influences on body weight.

Responding to listener feedback that we didn't sound high enough in the previous episode, this episode we definitely get good and high.
