A Matter of Fat

A weekly podcast in which journalist Rose Stokes and obesity scientist Professor Giles Yeo explore the fast-changing conversation around weight, body image and the new generation of weight-loss drugs such as Ozempic and Wegovy. Each episode pairs scientific insight with personal lived experience, covering topics from diet culture and shame to the social and emotional costs of pursuing thinness. The hosts don't always agree, and the show aims to help listeners think more clearly and kindly about bodies in 2026.
