Should I Delete That?

Em was thirty minutes late to the studio today - she arrived looking fabulous and with a tale to tell… it was a hell of a 12 hours to be Em (or her hair). We also discuss mispronouncing words in a professional capacity and the true meaning of the phrase 'take heed'. Listener Vanessa emailed us about the first all female space flight - so we dive into the questions that it has raised about girl boss feminism, tokenism and billionaire vanity projects.  Do you have something you want to share with us?

When it comes to IVF - the narrative can often be to keep going and going, and going until you have a baby.  Sometimes, however, the more sensible decision is to stop - and that is what was right for Anna Hart and her husband.  Anna is content creator, interiors planner and digital strategist. After starting her IVF journey during lockdown, and after three unsuccessful rounds - they made the decision to stop.  This is a side of the IVF conversation we don’t often hear about - Anna tells us about what she went through and how she has found happiness after coming out the other side of IVF without a baby.  Follow @annaelerihart on Instagram  Read Anna's piece "things i wish i knew about ivf" on her Substack.

If you want to postiviely reframe the narrative of weight gain - this is the episode for you!  Today, we’re speaking to the personal trainer, intuitive movement coach, content creator and podcaster Tally Rye.  Tally shares her powerful journey of healing her relationship with her body image, food, and exercise. She opens up about moving away from the relentless pursuit of thinness and embracing a more compassionate, balanced approach to health and self-worth. We dive into the positives of weight gain, how it’s impacted Tally’s life for the better, and how she navigates conversations with people who don’t quite see it the same way. This conversation was recorded back in October 2024 as part of our body image series - so if you haven’t listened to that yet, head back and explore more insights from Tally and other incredible guests diving deep into all things body image.

Mercury is in retrograde and we’re all feeling it…  Em, Al and Xanthe are in the studio today - and we’re gonna be honest… it was a little hard for us to find goods for this week’s GBA. Al’s been getting violent at the dentist and Em’s household has been hit by the flu.  We also dive into the conversations that have been opened up in the mainstream in the wake of the Netflix show Adolescence - which follows the story of a 13 year old boy who is arrested for the murder of a girl in his school. We discuss the rise of online misogyny, how it’s affecting young boys and what hope we have of stopping it. This conversation does discuss plot points from Adolescence - but if you haven’t seen it - the conversation mainly focuses on the issues the show brings up rather than the details of the plot. It won’t ruin the show, but you may get more from this conversation if you’ve seen at least the first two episodes of the series.  Listen to Sam Browne’s spoken work piece ‘Silly Billy’.

Meanwhile, Al has potentially given Betty a taste for human blood…  We also discuss internet accountability - we know that that people say hurtful things online but why do people feel the need to do it? And why do people feel so comfortable to do it publicly?  Alex has been completely outnumbered in the studio today with her very controversial opinion about tea.

We think stand-up comedy is possibly one of the most terrifying professions on the planet - and today, we’re speaking to a man who has mastered it.  In this episode, we’re speaking to the multi-award-winning comedian, presenter, actor, author, and scriptwriter Russell Kane. He tells us about this experience growing up funny in a working class household with a hyper-masculine father and how that experience built his career and how it has been reflected in his own attitude to fatherhood.  This conversation goes so much further than comedy - as we touch on everything from evolutionary biology, male sperm counts to emotional vulnerability - to unpack what Russell sees as a new vision for young men.  This episode was recorded in November 2024.

We’re talking Ozempic, again.  Our deep dive into body image may have wrapped up last week, but we all know this topic is far from over. So, we’re jumping back in… This time, we’re joined by influencer and longtime friend of the podcast, Sasha Pallari. After hearing our Ozempic episode, she reached out to share her own experience with Mounjaro — a journey she’s been candid about online over the past four months.  In this conversation, Sasha opens up about why she chose to take the drug, how its impact goes beyond just weight loss, and where she sees potential dangers. Sasha offers us her unique perspective on the drug - how it has changed her life and why she has chosen to be so open and honest about it online.  Follow @sashapallari on Instagram  You can listen to Sasha’s podcast Spill which she co-hosts with Billie Bhatia wherever you get your podcasts!

The body image landscape is changing in front of our eyes - and we have Ozempic to blame - or thank - for that.  For the last few years - Ozempic has been the topic that has dominated the cultural conversation. Is it the silver bullet to help us with our body image or are pharmaceutical companies taking advantage of our collective desire to be thin?  In this episode we speak to a doctor who is an expert on Ozempic, a psychologist and someone who has taken the drug to dig right to the core of this thorny, controversial topic. Is Ozempic a miracle or is it causing more damage than it’s worth? We don’t know where it’s going to end - but we know for certain that this isn’t the last we’ll hear of the drug.

The 2010s is a time we have come to think of as the ‘wellness’ rebrand. The era in which we declared that we wanted to be ‘strong not skinny’ and that we discarded what we now thought of as ‘fad’ diets and traded them in for consistent ‘healthy’ living. Skin and bones were out, toned arms, visible abs and curves in all the right places were in. Today we’re investigating if by replacing thinness as the thing to which we should aspire to with “healthy”, many of us fell into a false sense of healing, not realising how unhealthy our new and ‘healthy’ habits really were….

Colette Foster was the executive producer of Channel 4’s factual entertainment show Supersize vs Superskinny.  The show was hosted by Dr Christian Jessen and each week it saw two contestants, one overweight and one underweight, swap diets whilst at a Feeding Clinic, under the supervision of Dr Jessen. Both participants were shown the extent of their poor diet. This week, we have been exploring the role that television played on how we feel about our bodies - and we were thrilled when Colette agreed to come and speak to us. We were keen to find out about the inception of Supersize vs Superskinny, what safeguarding was in place for contributors and how the production team reacted to criticism directed at the show.  Colette is founder and Creative Director of Full Fat TV, a new factual entertainment company based in Birmingham, focusing on factual entertainment and feature formats with an emphasis on emerging talent.

It’s something anthropologists will no doubt look at with bewilderment in years to come: the extraordinary breadth of TV shows that were aired during the 00s. From Fat Families to How To Look Good Naked, we’re not sure there was anything more ruthless than the presenter of a show commissioned by Channel 4 between the years of 2001 and 2010. From the endless stream of TV shows capitalising on the nation’s almost hysterical fatphobia, to the background hum of misogyny that had weaved its way into every conversation broadcasted at the time, this was a truly WILD time to have eyes, ears, or a television license.

This week, we’ve been examining the role that nurture played in building our relationships with our bodies - and specifically the role played by the tabloid media of the 90s and 00s.  To really understand how that seismic impact the tabloids had on us - we had to speak to someone who knew how they work from the inside - that’s where Isabel comes in... Isabel is a writer who started her career in era-defining journalism, most notably at Heat magazine during its mid-noughties peak - where she contributed, alongside a huge team of people, to some of the most iconic features of that time… including The Circle of Shame.  Em spoke to Isabel to find out what it was like working at a magazine that focused so heavily on women’s bodies, the effect it had on her - and how she feels about it now looking back on that time. Follow @Isabel.Mohan on Instagram Subscribe to Isabel’s substack here: https://keepitupfatty.substack.com/ - where she writes about the major journey she has been on with body image and how she has now made it her mission through writing to encourage more people, especially women, to be more active and confident.  If you would like to get in touch - you can email us on [email protected]  Follow us on Instagram:@shouldideletethat@em_clarkson@alexlight_ldn Should I Delete That is produced by Faye LawrenceMusic: Dex RoyStudio Manager: Dex RoyTrailers: Sophie RichardsonVideo Editor: Celia GomezSocial Media Manager: Emma-Kirsty Fraser Hosted on Acast.

At the height of their popularity newspapers like The Sun and The Mirror were selling over 5 million copies a day, while magazines like Heat were distributing over 600,00 copies weekly.  As we go one step further into understanding the ways in which we feel about our own bodies - we thought we needed to explore more than just nature’s part in our story, and look at nurture’s involvement in this too. In the UK, tabloids were HUGE and as a result, were massively instrumental in informing so much of how we viewed the world and the women around us, but in the context of this series, we wanted to explore how pivotal they were in establishing how we curated the relationship we had with ourselves and our bodies.

This week on Should I Delete That, we’re investigating the ‘Almond Mom’ phenomenon. This is our conversation with the brilliant Molly Forbes - she is an author, campaigner, and the founder of The Body Happy Organisation.  Our chat with Molly is full of incredible practical advice and insight into how we can build positive body image for both ourselves and our children.  We also spoke to Molly about how it’s not just mums who play a role in building up our body image - and why perhaps we shouldn’t be placing all the pressure on mothers…  You can find The Body Happy Organisation’s free resources here: https://www.bodyhappyorg.com/start-here  Molly’s books Every Body and Body Happy Kids are available now - get your copies here!

A term made famous by Yolanda Hadid, Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star and mother to supermodels Bella and Gigi Hadid, “Almond Mom” refers to the type of mother who sets their child up to be obsessed with food and their bodies in ways that are both toxic and harmful. In this, the second episode of our Body Image series, we explore generational trauma in the context of diet culture, and take a deeper look at the wounds passed down from our grandmothers, to our mothers and in turn - to us. Many millennials feel very passionately that they want to be the ones to break this cycle, that we don’t want our kids to watch us starting a new diet every Monday, or never wearing a swimming costume or eating a biscuit without first apologising for it, and as relatively new mothers ourselves, this is something we feel deeply passionate about. Thanks so much to our amazing guests who feature on this episode: Phillippa Diedrichs, Molly Forbes, Beth and Bev.  Molly’s books Every Body and Body Happy Kids are available now - get your copies here!

Phillippa Diedrichs is a Professor of Psychology and body image and mental health expert. She works at the Centre for Appearance Research and has spent the last 20 years studying body confidence - what influences how we think and feel about how we look and what we can do as a society to create an environment where we can accept and love our bodies.  She also works with brands and organisations within the beauty and fitness industries to help them think about what they put out into the world, and how they can be part of the solution to help create a world that is accepting of bodies of all sizes.  This series grew so much bigger than we ever expected it to be thanks to the amazing insights our guests gave us - so we decided to release some of those expert conversations in their entirely. Each Thursday, you will hear an in depth conversation which will drill down into different themes which we will explore across the eight weeks of this series. This is the first of those conversations and we hope you love it.  Follow @phillippa.diedrichs on Instagram Read more about Phillippa’s work at https://www.phillippadiedrichs.com/  If you would like to get in touch - you can email us on [email protected]  Follow us on Instagram:@shouldideletethat@em_clarkson@alexlight_ldn Should I Delete That is produced by Faye LawrenceMusic: Dex RoyStudio Manager: Dex RoyTrailers: Sophie RichardsonVideo Editor: Celia GomezSocial Media Manager: Emma-Kirsty FraserArtwork: Alex Andrew Hosted on Acast.

New year, new me? Welcome to our expansive eight-part series deconstructing our relationships with body image. From the historical origins of diet culture, to the present day where injectable weight loss drugs are available from high street pharmacies, Alex and Em will strip back our assumptions about diet culture and body image, to find out how we got here, and how we can find a healthy way to look forward.  By speaking to a range of experts, from dieticians to fitness influencers - we’ll explore the damaging effects of tabloid media and weight loss TV shows, we will examine the phenomenon of the ‘Almond Mom’ and we will uncover diet culture’s ‘wellness’ rebrand - to equip our listeners with the knowledge and practical steps to navigate a world where diet culture lurks around every corner.  Today - we’re starting off by taking a look at the origins of diet culture, because to really get a sense of the magnitude of diet culture and the effects that it has had on our lives, we need to go back to its roots. So, in this episode, we’re going back in time to the advent of diet culture, in the hope it helps us figure out how these debilitating body issues that burden so many women have come to be – and why… Is it all innate? Do we have a biological predisposition to desiring to be thin? Let’s dig in. If you want to dig further into diet culture, self-acceptance and making peace with your body - Alex’s book You Are Not A Before Picture is available now. You can buy your copy here!

Faye Winter appeared on Love Island in 2021 and when she left the villa she was faced with a lot of noise and a lot of criticism. In this episode, Faye chats candidly about seeing herself in a different light, admitting she was wrong, and how she apologised and is working towards becoming a better person.  Faye tells us about her desire to live a normal life after appearing on the show - but how some people can perceive that as a failure, and how the choices that influencers make are dictated and driven by their audience engagement.  We also have a candid chat about Faye’s experience with filler - and how it is unregulated in the UK. Faye shares a horror story about botox and explains why she’s so vocal about the topic now.  Thanks so much to Hinge for sponsoring this episode. The dating app, which is designed to be deleted, inspires daters to take it slow this holiday season and reflect on the learnings from the past year.

We also get serious about the body shaming we’ve seen in the media around Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo. Why do people feel like it’s okay to talk about their bodies and why are we so reductive when it comes to women?

Have you ever heard a non-confrontational confrontation with a Just Stop Oil activist? Today we’re speaking to Gill Tavner. She’s a Just Stop Oil campaigner - but perhaps doesn’t fit the image that the media might paint you of one.  Gill was one of the warmest and most lovely people that we’ve spoken to on the podcast. She also has a criminal conviction - for walking in the road as part of a Just Stop Oil slow march.  She tells us how her activism was inspired by increasing desperation and anger about her daughters’ futures and she explains in simple, accessible and clear terms what Just Stop Oil is demanding - and it might not be as extreme as you think.  We know that climate anxiety is a real thing - and we know sometimes it can be easy to avoid difficult conversations about climate change. But Gill makes the conversation digestible and understandable - and she might just make you want to take action.  You can read about Just Stop Oil’s campaign to end fossil fuels by 2030 here - https://juststopoil.org/  Follow @just.stopoil on Instagram Follow @gilltavner on X Email us on [email protected] Follow us on Instagram:@shouldideletethat@em_clarkson@alexlight_ldn Should I Delete That? is produced by Faye Lawrence Music by Alex Andrew Hosted on Acast.
