What it is

Maintenance Phase is a podcast hosted by Aubrey Gordon and Michael Hobbes that launched on October 11, 2020. Each episode digs into a health or wellness fad, diet or myth (such as keto, Weight Watchers, the Presidential Fitness Test and diet self-help books) and examines the research and history behind it, along with anti-fat bias in American culture.
