In this episode of Three Food Memories Savva chats with brilliant author and journalist Johann Hari.
Johann’s books Chasing the Scream, Lost Connections and Stolen Focus have transcended borders, languages, and bestseller lists. His latest book, Magic Pill: The Extraordinary Benefits and Disturbing Risks of the New Weight Loss Drugs is out May 7th.
Unsurprisingly, Johann’s food memories are life-defining and themed (hello KFC) and they link his issues with food and weight from childhood through to adulthood as he discusses the fascinating insights from his research into obesity and the science behind weight loss drugs such as Ozempic.
This conversation deals with some heavy topics, but also his love for Gabor Maté and Guy Pearce, and as you’ll know if you listened to the teaser - there’s some swearing. So listen with headphones (or other people who drop the f-bomb on the reg).
Johann’s social cause is getting processed food out of our diets, as he remarks after telling the story of dancing with a 102-year-old woman “This is what you win when you sort out the obesity crisis. You get to live so much longer!”
