Listening to a recent podcast that mentions babies gaining microbiome via vaginal birth....except the word “vaginal” is muted out. Really hard to believe the credibility in a medical podcast with a host who can’t say basic female anatomy out loud.
I’ve been listening and it’s always had great information. Glad they didn’t fall into the trap of caving into pressure from hysterical politicians and there constituents. Stick to the facts and remove the hype.
Agree with the other reviewers. I realize you are recording these ahead. But, I am sure you can’t possibly still agree with your cavalier response released Friday 3/20. Someone at OLD should have pulled this. There are still people out there who believe that COVID-19 is overhyped. You just confirmed to them that they are correct and should go about their daily business. Very dangerous Dr Neal. Justin or you should not have posted this.
I have always been annoyed by his insistence on touting his credentials; just put it on your website and the show notes. However, I chose to skip past it and deal, because the content *was* seemingly helpful and interesting most of the time. However, when he started answering his last Q&A episode by saying he “wasn’t that concerned about the coronavirus,” I immediately unsubscribed. Even if he was *trying* to say he wasn’t worried about it becoming a “super bug,” that’s not the way it came off. Be more careful about the way you word things; people are especially vulnerable to misinformation and assumptions right now.
You are weeks behind, sadly Mia-informed and should do the general public who might hear your mis-information a favor and take this one down. You will get people killed. Tune into what is happening in here in New York, listen to Mayor DeBlasio’d press conference 3/20, last evening, and tell me you have a right to say these things to the public!
I like the podcast a lot. Very informative. Why does the host waste podcast time talking about all his degrees? I listen to many podcasts where other hosts never do this. More podcast time to the subject... less to the host citing his credentials.
I like the podcast, but 30% of every episode is an advertisement. I can’t stand it. Use an app that lets you trim off the first and last 60 seconds of each episode.
I really enjoy the model of the podcast. The host reads blog posts to you about heath and wellness, it's really refreshing to hear multiple opinions. After he reads to post he also weighs in on the subject as a liscenced professional in the field. Great for anyone interested in learning more about fitness and nutrition!
I enjoy these podcast tremendously.
They have changed my life in countless ways...I listen everyday and will continue to do so, I’m so grateful that they are free !!!
Thank you
Each day on my commute I listen for new ideas and reinforcement on old ones. Some topics don’t quite fit for me, but it’s interesting to hear what others are doing I. The realm of health and fitness!
I enjoy and listen to this podcast daily. I do wish there was less focus on ads and that Dr. Neil did not always do commentary on each blog post he reads.
The focus on modern medicine and an almost total discount of alternative medicine is frustrating as well.
I usually listen to the episodes about weight loss and working out and mindfulness but delete anything that doesn’t seem interesting without listening.
I like this show and the family of shows it belongs too but they can get kind of repetitive.
They read a blog, but for that minute and a half of content, you have to listen to 8 minutes of filler, promotions for their other podcast, blah, blah, blah, blah....
If there is more than 2 minutes of blog content to read (for Free! they will repetitiously remind you)then they need to break it down to a multipart series.
If you listen to any of their other podcasts, then again on repeat is the same 80% self promo to content ratio.
I’ve been a fan of this show for many months, listening almost every day to a show. I’m at my healthy weight, yet I listen because I like hearing all the different types of advice. Yesterday I heard one about “clean living,” which hit a home run and helped me learn something new. Keep up the great work, including the Q&A editions on Friday’s. It’s fun to hear what topics are on the minds of other listeners.

I started listening to this podcast a few months ago and already it has become my favorite. The material is very interesting and the length of the podcast makes it perfect for my commute (I usually listen to OLD in the morning and OHD in the evening). When I don’t get the chance to listen to it then, I also find that it is great to listen to during my workouts because it distracts me while I use the stair climber (which is always a positive!). One other thing I love about the podcast is the Friday Q&A episodes. It’s nice to know that there are people out there that have the same questions that I have and I think it’s a way for Dr. Neal to connect with his listeners in a way that is absent from most podcasts.
I love listening to this podcast and the optimal living podcast while I’m out walking. I’ve started listening over the past three months and continue to turn to this podcast for inspiration. I’ve started from the very beginning so I have a lot of catching up to do and I’m looking forward to it.
I listened to a few episodes and enjoyed them, until I heard the sentence, “like women, training partners come in all shapes and sizes” in the episode about training partners. Excuse me? Why are you comparing training partners to women? Do you think women don’t train or want to participate in this discussion as well? I realized that episode was clearly written for men, so I decided to give another one a try. I clicked on an episode titled “How To Get A Bikini Body” and was disappointed to hear a preamble with multiple reassurances that this episode will also apply to guys. How about a preamble on the training partners episode that this also applies to women? And an apology for the sexist comment you read? This show is clearly implicitly hosted by a man and geared towards men. Steer clear if you don’t like advice that casually dismisses women in the process.
I really love this podcast and it's sister podcasts too. They're the perfect length to be able to listen to them each day. Very inspiring and helpful. This one in particular helps me stay on track with my health goals and often offers insight that I wouldn't have known before. I really appreciate that Dr. Neal likes to use blogs that use facts and studies to backup the claims the authors are talking about. I look forward to hearing narrations of all the great blogs that Justin finds. Thank you OLD team for these!
I have enjoyed listening while walking nearly every day for a month and I have learned so much about nutrition and health. It feels like I have my own team of coaches that can help with every fitness question or motivation tip I need! Thank you so much for this amazing podcast.
I love htis podcast! Dr. Neal presents a wonderfully objective adn balanced approach to healthy livestyle and choices. My favorite podcasts are his Q &A sessions on Fridays, but they're all good!
I love listening to Dr. Neil! I am trying to better my health and exercise more and I love the articles he reads. My favorite part about his podcasts is the commentary he gives at the end of every podcast which gives his input on the topic even if it is different than what the author of the blog has stated.
My morning commute wouldn't be the same without the podcasts from OLD! The amount of great content from well-known authors that I can consume in a matter of minutes every morning has greatly impacted the quality of my life, and will do the same for you! But wait there's more! Dr. Neal beings an undisputed level of credibility while making optimal health seem obtainable for anyone with his approachable and relatable antedotes. Many thanks to Dr. Neal and the rest of the OLD family!
I am a physician and enjoy listening to this podcast. I learn great deals of fitness and nutrition advice to share with my patients, family and friends. Dr Neal...thanks for sharing your knowledge and advice.
I love that this show is daily. Listening to this and optimal living daily help to keep me motivated and FOCUSED on my goal. No all episodes apply to me but just absorbing the podcast keeps me on track.
