This week we feature listeners’ letters about the progress they’ve made, a listener who brought our fat eagle to life, and discuss our self-care tips for dark days and holiday blues. 

For our 200th episode, we feature voicemails and letters from listeners on how things have changed for them since we started doing the podcast almost 5 years ago.

This week we discuss the disgraced former CEO of A&F, Britain’s new plan for fat people receiving assistance, and Guy Branam’s take on being “gifted.” Then we interview Superstore’s Chris Grace about his new show on Dropout, Chris Grace: As Scarlett Johansson.
