About this episode
The episode humorously explores the absurdities of various weight loss diets and the lengths people go to in pursuit of losing weight.
A slice of middle-aged comedy about the bizarre world of weight loss — where logic goes hungry and common sense starves to death. In this episode, Adam and Keith tackle weight loss and the ridiculous diets designed to hack our basic biology... badly.
