On this week's episode, Remy and Emily dive right into the Scoop Du Jour, a new TikTok trend where people edit themselves to be "100 pounds less" to use as inspiration for weight loss. They talk about why these A.I. images might be even more dangerous than the "thinspo" from our Tumblr days. Why do we torture ourselves with all these filters in the first place? Later, they answer a Dear DST email from a listener who had to attend a talk by David Sinclair at a work conference about his scientific work around avoiding aging. The listener was outraged by his advice to live on 2 meals (with no snacks) and a huge roster of supplements. Is she right to feel triggered? Would the audience's reaction have been different if it was a woman suggesting this limited diet? Plus, Remy and Emily talk about whether or not it's worth it to live such a restricted life, even if it does provide longevity.
