EP. 140 — I Lost 150 Pounds

What is it like to transform from very large to marathon runner very quickly? A polite but engaged audience in Toronto helps Geth out with some questions, like how her experience feels in the context of the body positivity movement (and they tweet some insults aimed at Buffalo).

Lucky to have this gig. Thank you for supporting the show. Lot of things to tell you about. Let’s see, last week’s episode, Basement Infidelity. People reacted very strongly to that one. In the Facebook community, I will say, I was shocked, somewhat dismayed to see how many people left comments saying I have been there, I have also been cheated on, I don’t know all the facts, it does mess with your head. But I’ll also say I was very inspired because all those comments came from a place of real compassion for the caller and saying, hey, there’s other people out her
