The Body Protest

Hi Body Protesters! How you doing?! Some good news - we are coming back for Series 3 in a few short weeks!! In the meantime, while we are slowly emerging from our winter hibernation, we thought we’d pop up to say hi and have a little chat, just us.  

We talk about what carried us through the first few hellish months of 2021 and how we intend to look after ourselves right this year. We share an eclectic mix of recommendations from Bob’s Burgers to It’s a Sin, Honey shares why she is not on Twitter, and we fan-girl over Fran Leibowitz, Roxane Gay & Tressie McMillan Cottom.  

We hope you enjoyed listening! Please remember to rate, review, share and subscribe!
