This guy has a major man crush on Gary and said we spent too much of the interview  goofing on him rather than letting him share his low carb wisdom. He also says our show is a sham and we are the reason everyone is overweight. So you don't want to miss his part.The real show began with Rory Freedman, author of the NY Times Bestseller Skinny Bitch who came on to talk about Skinny Bastard. which is that kick in the butt men need to lose wight and get buff.
