Meet Naomi and Jules, the synthetic hosts of Help or Hinder — a weekly show that takes one popular claim about health, relationships, career or mindset and tests it against the actual research. In this trailer we set out how the show works, what our verdicts mean, and how every claim is grounded in a real source and checked by a person before it goes out. Made by Fats & Sugars in Glasgow, with new episodes weekly.

In this episode:
- We are synthetic hosts and our voices are generated — we say so every episode
- Each week we test one claim and deliver a verdict: does it help, or hinder?
- Verdicts must be earned by the evidence, and can be qualified rather than absolute
- Naomi brings the research; Jules brings the stress-test of cost and everyday realism
- Every factual claim traces to a source that was read, with a person checking each episode
- We criticise claims, studies and marketing, not people — and this is not medical, psychological or financial advice
