Best Gabe Ever

Allison and Gaby try to help a listener who fears her partner isn't able to provide her the emotional support she needs. They're then joined by writer and cartoonist Ellen Forney to discuss her experience writing about and living with Bipolar I. And finally, exercise! How can we reframe it as something that nurtures our mind and body vs. a way to change how our bodies look? (tw: addiction, crime, weight, suicide)

Happy 2021 Everyone! To start off the New Year, Allison and Gaby discuss a listener's email that brings attention to the existence of harmful therapy and institutionalization. They're then joined by one of the podcast's greatest guests of all time (in our humble opinion), disability activist Alice Wong to discuss ableism, covid and the importance of filling your bookshelf with diverse voices. And finally, compliments! The good, the lovely and the harmful! Also Allison reveals how she chooses the topics and it's goofy as hell. tw: rape, suicide, ableism, weight

Gaby and Allison answer a listener's question on how to battle the monotony of working from home. They're then joined by podcasting icon, Sarah Marshall, to discuss the Satanic Panic of the 1980's and its connection to QAnon. And later: can we fix the divisions in this country?

Gaby and Allison give a listener advice about battling imposter syndrome in the male-dominated field of quantitative finance. They then have a delightful discussion with Allison’s former middle school music teacher Mirna Valerio, who has since become a FAMOUS RUNNER due to her blog Fat Girl Running. Lastly, sexism in the media. How are female politicians, celebrities and astronauts treated differently? Also, we released this early because of the election. Oof. Good luck, America! (tw: fatphobia, domestic violence)
