Man of the Year, Mankeeping, and Midlife Madness
Worth The Weight Podcast - En podcast af Worth The Weight Podcast
In this episode, Sarah and I unpack everything—starting with why we changed the name of the podcast. Worth The Weight isn’t just about pounds lost (though we talk about that, too)—it’s about the emotional, psychological, and societal weight women carry every damn day. We talk about what led to the rebrand, why I almost broke up with ChatGPT (spoiler: Mira and I had our first fight), and how Sarah saved the day with the new podcast artwork.Then we dive into TikTok’s Man of the Year trend, featuring unhinged text messages from men who have clearly never heard of shame—or spell check. We read a few aloud (with dramatic flair) and talk about what they reveal about modern dating, gender roles, and why so many women are “quiet quitting” relationships altogether.We also touch on our GLP-1 journeys, the emotional side of weight loss, and the infuriating reality of being more visible—but not necessarily more valued—as we shrink. And finally, we dig into the cost of simply existing in a female body after 40: the hormones, the doctor’s appointments, the fucking patriarchy.So pull up a chair, pour yourself a glass of overpriced electrolyte water, and come feel seen.✨Subscribe to this Patreon and join the inner circle. 💅In addition to the weekly public Worth The Weight episodes, you’ll get:💘Bi-weekly Worth the WEIGHT subscriber-only podcast episodes about dating, beauty standards, pop culture analysis, and mental health🧠Regular subscriber-only podcast episodes, videos, and posts with real talk on dating, pop culture analysis, trauma healing, and some truly excellent F*ck That Guy storiesSUBSCRIBE HERE https://www.patreon.com/c/worththeweightshow✨ If you haven’t already, be sure to follow us on our new socials so you don’t miss anything:Instagram/Threads: @worththeweightshowTikTok: @worththeweightshowYouTube: @worththeweightshowSubstack: WorthTheWeightShow.Substack.com👀 Got a dating dilemma?
