Caroline Dooner hosts this relaxed podcast for chronic dieters, and discusses the dark side of dieting and the dogma of wellness culture, answers listener questions, and explains her method for getting out of the diet cycle. Beware: this podcast is *painfully* casual. Some would say ...disorganized. Some would say charming. Art is subjective. There will be lots of rambling. There will be lots of conversations with her dog. There was even a one year period why she didn't know why her microphone was so loud. But it WILL be free from diet culture. And it may even help a little.

Histamine & Demons (unrelated topics, mostly). My Bonus Chat with Adrian!
This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit carolinedooner.substack.comAlrighty, here is a second conversation with Adrian! If you haven’t listened to the first one, it’s fully available to all here: The Most Problematic Topic of Them All. I recommend listening to the first one before listening to this one.UNFORTUNATELY for all of us… I was mentally impaired and especially stupid the day we recorded this one, thanks to my brain being flooded with histamine, so this conversation is a little disjointed and staying behind the paywall. We cover MCAS / Histamine / Orthorexia / and then… Demons & Dinosaurs & Giants 🤣Just know that everything I say about the spirit world, I’m saying veeeerrrrryyyy loosely based on current research and thoughts … I’m not saying any of this definitively. Okkkayyy! Enjoy!PS! Also, join us on the subscriber chat. Paid subscribers can engage with me and other subscribers and respond to the prompts I post!

The Most Problematic Topic of All... my convo with @capitalism.and.glitter
Hello! After all my effort merging my old podcast with my new substack podcast… I split them again. Meaning, I’m starting over again, with a new podcast: Problematic. Today’s episode is most problematic direction of them all… talking about health, chronic illness, and v @ ccines.In this episode, my friend Adrian (of @capitalism.and.glitter on instagram) talks about her journey of discovery with her health after becoming disabled from COVID... We cover RCCX theory! V@ c cine injury! Government corruption! And more!I had to cut some of this episode for length, so I’ll be releasing lots of what I cut behind the paywall later this week (I hope, I usually overpromise on timing…), and I also plan to talk to her again soon (“soon”), because really, we just scratched the surface of what I hoped we would get into talking about.I actually wrote my most recent post, detoxing vs. nourishing, and posted it before releasing this episode on purpose, because I wanted to give some context for when Adrian and I off-handedly refer to “minerals” and “organ meat”… we are both on the “nourish your body with minerals” train right now… so check it out if you haven’t yet.*This episode was partially sponsored by Micro Balance Health Products.
