Welcome to the Pod!

Ozempic, influencers, and the new shape of wellness culture.

Our first episode! Welcome Xplorers!

This episode unpacks the collision of hype, health, and high‑stakes marketing as we explore why Ozempic and GLP-1s have become the internet’s most polarizing obsession. From the clinical trials that led to Ozempic and GLP-1s, and the psychology behind rapid‑fix culture to the pressures fueling social media, celebrity narratives, and institutional power structures shape the way people think about weight, health, and identity.

It’s a conversation about culture as much as medicine—how trends take hold, who benefits, who gets left out, and why this moment feels bigger than a single drug.

If you’re fascinated by the crossroads of science, status, and storytelling, this episode pulls you right into the center of the debate.

Binge‑watching your way into bad sleep? Let’s talk about it.

If you’ve ever promised yourself “just one more episode” and suddenly it’s 3 a.m., this episode is calling your name. We unpack the science behind late‑night streaming, why your brain gets hooked, and how those cliffhangers might be messing with your sleep more than you think.

From real clinical trials to surprising health findings, we break down what researchers are discovering about binge culture, blue light, and the modern bedtime battle between you and your favorite shows.

Whether you’re a chronic night‑owl streamer or just curious about the science, this episode will change the way you hit “play next.”

A TikTok fairytale… or the plot twist of the decade?

In this episode, we unravel the viral love story that had the internet in a chokehold: an American influencer swept off her feet by a tall, dark, impossibly charming man from Denmark. What starts as a whirlwind romance quickly spirals into a globe‑trotting saga filled with luxury trips, jaw‑dropping price tags, mysterious connections to the Danish royal family… and somehow, the Olympics slide into the chat.

Is it love? Is it a scam? Is it destiny?

Part 2...

Yes, we just scratched the surface last episode. Let's continue on this crazy ride with the Beauty and the Danish.

Your host, Yinka, pulled up to CivilDiscourse101 podcast hosted by one of her closest friends Joe and his partner in crime Jesse — for a crossover that dives straight into the messy, high‑stakes world of politics and clinical research. We unpack why science gets political even when the data is solid, how polarization shapes public trust, and why misinformation spreads faster than the truth. We get into the power dynamics behind government funding, which diseases get prioritized, and the nonstop tension between innovation and regulation.

It’s smart, it’s spicy, and it just might change the way you think about how science actually works in the real world.
