Nancy and Sarah are joined by Chaya Leah Sufrin, one-half of the wonderful “Ask a Jew” podcast, to talk about a subject she’s mostly avoided: Weight and her own body. Chaya Leah recently lost 45 pounds, which coincides with a season when Sarah was shedding weight too, making for one big conversation about diets, discipline, self-care versus self-neglect, and the mental health savior that is exercise. Topics include:

* The forbidden TV show Chaya Leah used to sneak-watch as a young girl

* The secret to weight loss is deciding to do it

* How do you balance body positivity with, umm, reality?

* Atkins, South Beach, Weight Watchers, Scarsdale, etc etc.

* The Jane Fonda workout and the 80s VHS fitness craze

* Vitamin B12 shots, yea or nay?

* Everyone thinks Chaya Leah is on Ozempic (she’s not)

* Nancy and Sarah share a fantasy and it involves … pills?

* Chaya Leah’s crush on Elon Musk

* Did the ADL go to the way of the ACLU?

* Who Nancy wants to play her in the movie

And much more!
