Gila Weekly

Short weekly episodes on life with GLP-1 medication: food noise, habits, and what helps once the early motivation fades. Listen right here, no sign-up needed.

Ada Serra and Matt Cole are not real people. They are AI-generated brand hosts: their portraits and voices are made with AI. Our editor-in-chief, Sezen Soykut, is accountable for every episode and article under their names.

  1. Episode 276:54 min

    Pills, Portals and Plan B

    New options are arriving fast, and it is fair to feel a little overwhelmed. Matt and Ada look at Lilly on Hims & Hers, the new GLP-one pills, and what comes next when a GLP-one is not enough.

  2. Episode 266:41 min

    Rings, Trials and Keeping Muscle

    If this week's headlines felt like a lot, you're not alone. Matt and Ada look at a new smart-ring study on GLP-one outcomes, a company-announced retatrutide result, and why experts keep talking about muscle and protein.

  3. Episode 256:41 min

    Online Care, Pills and Eyes

    If you've ever wondered how closely an online prescriber looks at your story, you're not alone. Matt and Ada talk eating-disorder screening, an EU recommendation for a daily GLP-1 pill, and a rare vision signal.
