The boys chat about the preview for the new Indonesian animated movie, Jumbo, and a reminder from Tigress Osborn about politics and internalized fat-phobia. Then we let our imaginations run wild on fat mythological creatures.

This week, the boys talk about Sumo, a new off-Broadway play, and Brendan Carpenter's inspiring post  on Instagram about gaining weight. Then we dive into how we’ve dealt with being triggered by innocent remarks.

Join us for the 6th Annual Chubby Awards, presenting the best of last year’s fat representation in business, community, and entertainment.
