The Fat Doctor Podcast
How would you react if someone told you that most of what we are taught to believe about healthy bodies is a lie? How would you feel if that person was a medical doctor with over 20 years experience treating patients and seeing the harm caused by all this misinformation?In their podcast, Dr Asher Larmie, an experienced General Practitioner and self-styled Fat Doctor, examines and challenges 'health' as we know it through passionate, unfiltered conversations with guest experts, colleagues and friends.They tackle the various ways in which weight stigma and anti-fat bias impact both individuals and society as a whole. From the classroom to the boardroom, the doctors office to the local pub, weight-based discrimination is everywhere. Is it any wonder that it has such an impact on our health? Whether you're a person affected by weight stigma, a healthcare professional, a concerned parent or an ally who shares our view that people in larger bodies deserve better, Asher and the team at 'The Fat Doctor Podcast' welcomes you into the inner circle.

Silence or Violence: I wish there was a better way
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In their bravest and sincerest episode yet, Asher talks about how challenging they have found the last couple of years and the cost of whistleblowing or "doing the right thing". Ultimately they find themselves facing an impossible choice. To remain silent and allow people to harm others, or to speak up and accept the violent consequences.
