In this week's episode of Fat and Fucked, Suzy and Dr. Krista are joined by the delightfully upbeat Jeff Jenkins, world traveler and host of NatGeo's Never Say Never.  Jeff tells us about his path to finding his niche with Chubby Diaries, how he changed his life by writing a list of 101 things he wants to do before he dies, and what's next for him on his grand journey.  We very much enjoyed our conversation with Jeff, and we hope you enjoy listening just as much!

Hello, friends! In this rich hour, Dr. Krista and Suzy are joined by the National Association to Advance Fat Acceptance (NAAFA) executive director Tigress Osborn.  Tigress gives us an amazing history lesson in the early days of the struggle for fat liberation which led to NAAFA's founding, an exploration of internalized fat bias, and the forever work of freeing ourselves from the insidious messaging of diet culture.  Tigress shares her own journey to fat lib and the challenges of living out loud as a well-known fat black woman in the public eye. 

We had so much fun talking to Tigress, we had to break the episode into two parts.  Keep an eye out for the next episode to part two of our interview with Osborn, where we dish about dating while fat, navigating relationships as an older femme, and play a fun game to get to know who Tigress is when she's off duty.  Who loves ya, babes?  WE DO.  Be fat, be fab, be free.

Hello, friends!  After a lil break to recalibrate, Suzy and Dr. Krista are BACK!  Listen in as we excitedly chatter to one another about oatmeal baths and jello wrestling before we remember we're doing a podcast episode about listener questions.  It's funny and informative, and we're so happy you're still along for this ride with us.  Who loves ya, babies?  WE DO.

In this thoughtful and funny episode, Krista and Suzy spend a delightful hour with Marina Hayes, owner of Peridot Robes, our new best friend.  We talk about the concept of fat entitlement, why you deserve fat luxury, and how chocolate chip cookies can lead to a $1,200 blow job.  You don't want to miss this one!  We'd love to hear from you - questions and comments to [email protected].
