Listen Later

This week we’re joined by the brilliant Abby Rose Morris & Maya Ballestér from the More Than Tracy Turnblad podcast for one of our best and most real episodes to date! We’re talking about fat representation in the media, the most common tropes we see in TV and movies, the Fat Amy phenomenon, societal fatphobia and anti-fat sentiment and how it hurts everyone, how weight & appearance affect us all while growing up, the most annoying unsolicited advice fat people are given, why fat people are often told to settle or accept bad treatment when it comes to dating, why a lot of what you want in a partner is actually about what you want to look like next to them and MORE! As usual, we finish with a rousing game of Hot Or Just In Charge? Featuring Tom Cruise, Daddy Warbucks, Cate Blanchett, Tilda Swinton, and Tony Soprano.
