What does Maintenance Phase mean?
Maintenance phases are short periods of elevated Calories, throughout a longer-term weight loss goal. Another term often used is 'diet break'.

If you can never get enough true crime... Congratulations, you’ve found your people.
Patreon?
I didn't realize how young of a podcast this is, or how few episodes they had. I've run through their whole catalogue and have listened to many episodes several times. I cannot get enough!!! I've been on the fence about Patreon for a few weeks. I desperately crave more MP content but am not sure about being a patron.
Secret Eaters
How do we request show topics. I just recently became aware of a British show called Secret Eaters. It has 3 seasons. It's so shameful and has incredibly shotty scientific experiments. I would LOVE to hear Mike and Aubrey rip this apart!
Olivia Munn in a Fatsuit
I know they touched on Olivia Munn's fatphobia during The Grifties episode, but the casting news today (she's going to be on some Walking Dead spin-off) got me thinking about the worst thing I've ever seen her do.
just a tiny note about my favorite thing in this podcast
Michael and Aubrey's dynamic is awesome and entertaining to listen to. Both are great storytellers and the listener/reactor each week does it so expertly.
