We kick things off with a controversial takedown of Canadian geese and why we'd rather deal with mallards. We also debate the viral video of a jazz band playing on a delayed flight, is it a joy filled party or an overstimulating nightmare? In sports, we answer a listener's question about her husband watching too much NBA, MLB, and college football, and discuss the controversy around Serena Williams promoting a GLP-1 weight loss drug, including shocking revelations from influencer LaToya Snell about deceptive ad practices. We also dive into the online discourse surrounding running brand Tracksmith and their "inauthentic" new trail shoe. Plus, we share the inspiring story of an 88 year old woman ending her 45 year run streak, a German TV show about competitive shopping cart returning, and a heartwarming video of sanitation workers racing a little boy on his bike.
Kaya is back solo and she is running through a vast array of topics from the SNL departures, your kids, and her GLP journey and how it ties into Serena Williams' debacle.

America is drinking less, but is that really a good thing? In this Home Team episode, we break down the stats, debate whether alcohol is truly on the decline, and ask the bigger question: what's replacing it? From vaping to THC, pharma-driven “cure alls,” and Japan's Metabo Law, this conversation covers the cultural shift around drinking—and whether it's leading us toward better health or just new problems.Timestamps:[0:00] Why Gen-Z is drinking less[1:44] Declining alcohol statistics[4:00] The case for giving it up[5:00] Alcohol and personal freedom[7:04] Are stats misleading?

When tennis legend Serena Williams announced her 30+ pound weight loss using GLP-1 medication, the internet exploded with opinions. Some celebrated her transparency, others questioned the decision, but most people missed the real conversation entirely. Using a world-class athlete as your litmus test for whether this medication makes sense for your life is honestly fucking crazy—and here's why your context matters more than her endorsement. In this episode we dive into:• Why comparing your health decisions to elite athletes is setting you up for failure• The difference between using expert guidance versus outsourcing your entire decision-making process• How to evaluate ANY tool (GLP-1 included) based on your actual reality, not someone else's highlight reel• The identity shift that makes any approach sustainable long-termThe Context You're Actually Operating In• The trap of thinking "if she needs it, I definitely need it" without considering lifestyle differences• Why Serena's family history of diabetes and joint pain created a legitimate medical case• How her lifetime of peak performance discipline differs from your Tuesday afternoon motivation• The marketing reality behind celebrity endorsements that you can't ignoreWhat Actually Makes Tools Work• Why medication becomes a band-aid without habit and identity changes underneath• The research process that separates thoughtful decisions from social media influence• How to adopt elite-level consistency in your actual daily reality• The questions about long-term sustainability that most people skip entirelyYour Real Benchmark for Success• Why your work schedule, stress levels, and family obligations shape what's realistic for you• The difference between shortcuts and strategic tools in your specific context• How to think critically about any health decision instead of following someone else's blueprint• Why your results have to be yours to actually stickThis conversation reminds us that context is everything when it comes to sustainable change. Whether you're considering GLP-1 medication or any other tool in your health journey, this episode offers the framework to make decisions that actually align with your life instead of someone else's highlight reel.Looking for more on making decisions that fit your reality? Check out Episode 215: "Why You Keep Saying You'll Start Monday (And How to Actually Stop)" where we dive deeper into breaking cycles and building sustainable habits.APPLY FOR 1:1 COACHING WITH THE FITNESS FYXInstagram:@thekrystahuber@thefyx.officialpod@thefitnessfyx
When I read the headline that Serena Williams is taking a GLP-1 medication — and that her husband is an investor in the very company producing it — it felt like a punch in the gut. Serena has always stood as an icon of strength, unapologetic power, and resistance to the thin ideal. To see her linked with the latest “miracle” weight loss drug is more than disappointing — it's a reflection of how deep diet culture's grip really goes.In this episode, I explore what GLP-1 drugs are, why they've become so wildly popular, and the truth behind the hype. More importantly, I unpack what it means when celebrities endorse them — how it normalizes their use, makes them aspirational, and reinforces the idea that even the most powerful women in the world still need to shrink to belong.We'll talk about how the pharmaceutical industry and celebrity endorsements capitalize on both our pain and our shame — pain from years of dieting and frustration, and shame from the belief that our bodies are broken and need fixing. These drugs aren't really selling health; they're selling thinness, conformity, and the illusion of belonging, all at tremendous cost to our well-being and self-trust.Along the way, we'll also touch on how Serena's body has always been scrutinized through the lenses of race and gender, and why even she isn't immune to the pressures of a culture determined to shrink us.This conversation isn't about blaming one person's choices, but about looking at the larger system that profits when we feel like we're not enough. At the end of the day, our bodies are not for sale. They are not commodities. They are vessels for our joy, our love, and our lives. And when we stop buying into the shame, we take back our power.If this episode resonates with you, I'd love for you to share it with someone who needs the reminder that their body is already enough.

Send us a textI didn't plan to end up emotionally fried by the end of summer... but there I was. I hit my limit. So, I did something radical (for a special needs mom, at least): I took myself to the beach. Alone. No kids. No caregiving. Just me, the ocean, and a much-needed van therapy session overlooking the waves.And wouldn't you know it—while body surfing, I ran into a fellow special needs mom friend, totally by surprise. The odds were wild. We both chose the same beach, at the same time, from different corners of San Diego. It felt divinely orchestrated.This experience reminded me just how extreme the job of a special needs mom really is. Like, Olympic-level extreme. So what if we treated ourselves accordingly? What if we supported ourselves like Serena Williams supports her game—with specialists, intentional recovery, and next-level planning?In this episode, I talk about what it means to be an “extreme mom,” why our current support systems aren't cutting it, and what baby steps you can take to start acknowledging and supporting yourself like the elite performer you are.If nothing else, I double dog dare you to use the text link at the top of the show notes to say it with me: “I am an extreme mom.” Or just say hi—I'll never know it's you, but it makes my day when I get those messages.Get The Special Needs Mom Survival Pack HEREConnect with Kara, host of The Special Needs Mom Podcast:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thespecialneedsmompodcast/Website: https://www.kararyska.com/

Hey lifers!! Laura had a surprise baby shower and both Britt and Keeshia were terrible friends and missed it!Last week we offended some of y’all by saying that it was ‘weird’ to have a photo of just yourself as your own phone background… we’re sorry not sorry. If you’re in the dating world it’s likely that you’ve got an opinion on dating apps. It’s likely that that opinion is “I hate them and I’m exhausted by them”. But would you hand over the reins to AI to try and find your person? We are joined by our friend and colleague Claire, described as ‘one of our many single friends’ who has joined the AI dating app. We speak about what it’s like and the unusual way that the app gets you to go on dates. Do you know someone who likes both hiking and the idea of having a dog?? Where is the line between ‘transparency’ of weight loss medication and celebrity endorsement? Serena Williams is sporting a new look. Last week she shared that she had lost 14 kgs by using weight loss medication. She is the new ambassador of a telehealth company that prescribes GLP-1s and her husband is a board member of the telehealth company. We ask: Can you talk ‘transparently’ about weight loss medication if you’re being paid? Should ‘personal struggle’ narratives be used to promote something that feels very emotional to all of us? Does this destigmatise weight loss medication? Is providing ‘easy access’ to prescription medication ethical?

Jameela Jamil Calls Out Serena Williams for promoting a GLP1 medication. And Millie Bobbi Brown and Jake Bongiovi were spotted with their new baby girl!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
TALK TO ME, TEXT ITWhat happens when one of the world's greatest athletes hawks weight loss drugs as a "lifestyle choice" rather than admitting it's a shortcut? Kennedy from Fox News doesn't hold back in her scathing critique of Serena Williams' latest endorsement deal with Rowe Telehealth, a company connecting patients with GLP-1 medications. As we explore in this episode, the tennis star's claim that she "couldn't lose weight no matter how hard she trained" rings hollow when you consider her access to world-class nutritionists, trainers, and resources most people can only dream about.The morning news roundup continues with a United Airlines flight that never took off after a restless passenger decided to smoke marijuana in the bathroom during a delay. The pilot ultimately cancelled the entire flight when crew members became concerned about potential secondhand exposure. It's yet another reminder that one person's poor decisions can impact hundreds of others in shared spaces.Most disturbing is the account of Oliver Alvis, a former train driver who claims he hasn't slept for nearly two years. This medical mystery has cost him everything – his career, home, and health. Even powerful surgical anesthetics apparently fail to render him unconscious. His description of the experience is haunting: "Sleep deprivation isn't just exhaustion. It dismantles your spirit." His struggle raises the question for all of us: What's the longest you've gone without sleep?
