What if your digestion problems aren’t just physical—but emotional too?

In this raw and slightly unhinged episode of The Long & Thick Podcast, we break down digestion in a way that blends science, real talk, and some evolutionary weirdness.

We cover:

What digestion actually is

Why we start life as deuterostomes (yes, literal buttholes)

The impact of trauma on gut function

Why disordered eating is way more normalized than it should be

How stress, shame, and nervous system dysregulation can affect how we absorb and break down food

We’re not doctors—but we are curious, honest, and trying to make sense of how complex our bodies (and lives) really are.
