Why We Overeat with Maggie Sterling Maggie Sterling Want to lose weight without constantly fighting yourself? "Why We Overeat" takes a different approach to sustainable weight loss by uncovering the real reasons behind your eating habits. Each week, Maggie and Ryan share practical strategies to stop overeating, end emotional eating, and break free from the diet-binge cycle. Unlike traditional weight loss podcasts, we focus on the "why" behind your food choices and how your brain influences eating behaviors. Through candid conversations you'll discover how to create lasting change without restrictive diets or complicated food rules. Whether you struggle with stress eating, late-night snacking, or portion control, this podcast helps you understand your relationship with food and build sustainable habits that actually last. Join us to learn why addressing the root causes of overeating is the key to achieving your weight loss goals.

Guests will include both former and current believers in a variety of conspiracy theories, as well as debunkers, skeptics, and the investigators of those theories. I’m Mick West, a debunker. I wrote the book Escaping the Rabbit Hole – How to Debunk Conspiracy Theories using Facts, Logic, and Respect. This book came from my experiences running Metabunk – a debunking forum. Over the years I realized simply presenting corrections to people is not enough. We need effective communication, and we can’t do that if we don’t listen to and talk with each other. I’m hoping this podcast will help bridge that gap. Explicit Miscast Entertainment Miscast Entertainment This is Miscast Entertainment, with your hosts, William Davis Moore, Greg, and JJ!
