Picture this: a dinner with a well-connected industry insider, quiet confessions about midlife celebrities, and a conversation that suddenly pivots to Reddit trolls and AI tracking anonymous haters. What starts as behind-the-scenes plastic surgery talk turns into a jaw-dropping story about an influencer who uncovers the truth about her loudest critic. It's surprising, a little unsettling, and a reminder that sometimes the smartest move is to stop reading the comments altogether.
This story is part of The Saturday Spill series a little peek into the wild, unfiltered stuff that usually stays on Patreon. Some weeks it's hilarious, some weeks it's jaw-dropping, but it's always real life that doesn't quite fit on the regular show. If you're into a little chaos and behind-the-scenes tea, you're in the right place. If you love it, amazing…you can listen to the full, unedited version here http://Chalene.com/more

When it comes to weight loss, is rebounding actually better than walking, or is it just another fitness trend blowing up your feed? In this episode, Chalene Johnson breaks down the real science behind zone 2 walking vs. rebounding and what actually matters for fat loss, muscle building, and long term results. If you are over 40, trying to lose weight, protect your joints, and avoid wasting money on equipment that ends up holding laundry, you need to hear this. Chalene gets honest about calorie deficits, muscle loss, plateaus, GLP-1 weight loss concerns, and why cardio alone is not the magic answer. Before you buy a rebounder, weighted vest, or the next viral fitness gadget, listen to this.

Chalene Johnson breaks her usual rule of avoiding politics to talk about something far more disturbing. This episode digs into the newly released Epstein files, the outrage surrounding Dr. Peter Attia, and the uncomfortable question no one seems willing to answer. Why are some public figures facing real consequences while others remain completely untouched? This is not a partisan conversation. It is a deep dive into power, silence, and the accountability gap that continues to protect the most connected people in the world.
🚨This episode discusses sexual assault, exploitation, and abuse involving women and children. No graphic details are shared, but the subject matter may be upsetting for some listeners. 🚨

Picture this: Chalene is dealing with sensitive and irritated skin around her face and eyes, a skincare product that looks way too fancy to be suspicious, and a quick decision that felt totally harmless in the moment. Then things start getting weird. A little irritation turns into huh that is odd, which turns into a doctor visit and one of those slow dawning realizations where your brain starts quietly replaying everything you have touched recently. It is funny, uncomfortable, and mildly unhinged in the way only real life can be.
