In the fourth episode of X-Men: Evolution, we get introduced to Fred "The Blob" Dukes. This starts out as a promising story about someone who pushes back against his bullies, but then it spirals off into fatphobic garbage and negative stereotypes about fat people. Maddy and Ryan would not recommend that you watch this episode! But please enjoy us tearing it apart... including Ryan's mic sounding a bit blown out the entire time because we had to use backup equipment (and also we were yelling, because we were mad, because this episode is fucked up). Stick around to the end of the episode for a very special segment featuring some insights about bullying via Ryan's sister, who works as a guidance counselor.
