Fad Camp: Tackling serious conversations through comedy

Podcasting can be a great way to address complex or challenging topics, and for many people across the world, the issue of diet and weight loss is a deeply personal one. That’s why the creators of Fad Camp, Conor Dowling and Grace Mulvey, decided to tackle the subject with a healthy dose of humour, as well as through sharing their own personal experiences of fad diets and bizarre weight-loss regimes. 


This week, Rhianna Dhillon and Reem Makari spoke to Mulvey and Dowling about how the show came to be, their reaction to winning Best Entertainment Podcast at this year’s Irish Podcast Awards, and how they adapted the show for live audiences, as well as how they handle research in such a thorny area.


Hosted by Rhianna Dhillon and produced by Ollie Peart for Haymarket Business Media.
