In this lively chat, Simon Matthews and Darren take a closer look at the Body Mass Index (BMI)—a number we all know but may not fully understand. They dig into the surprising history of BMI, why it’s not always a great fit for everyone, and how it can even mess with our minds! Then, they shift gears to the Body Roundness Index (BRI), a fresh alternative that considers body shape and waist size instead of just weight. Along the way, they explore why health is so much more than numbers and why we need to think beyond the scale to really understand our well-being.

Intentionally Disturbing
Join me on this podcast as I navigate the murky waters of human behavior, current events, and personal anecdotes through in-depth interviews with incredible people—all served with a generous helping of sarcasm and satire.
