Tubby

The Yo-Yo People with artist Casey McGlynn

Alan met artist Casey McGlynn when he interviewed him for his latest film "Love, Harold". The two discuss how Casey bullied his way to self acceptance, the moment Alan decided to make a change, having private confidence while being insecure in public, feeling like Tom Cruise when you lose 50 pounds, and how fat people are invisible to the world.

When There's a Will, There's a Way with Angelo Tsarouchas

Over the years there have been a lot of funny fat people. Does their fatness make them funny? Does losing weight make them less funny? Has the obesity epidemic made America funnier?

Where do you get a tuxedo when you are 410 pounds?

Boxy Body and a Weird Shape

Alan was surprised to learn that his friend and podcast co-host Kattie considers herself a tubby person and thinks about her body every waking hour of the day. They commiserate about the agony of taking group photos with hot friends and the curse of thick thighs and big arms, and together they try to solve the common problem of wearing through jeans due to thigh chafe.Kattie Laur is the co-host of Alan's other show (not about tubbiness) The Worst Podcast, host of Canardian, and the writer of the Pod The North newsletter.We want to keep making the show for you, but we can't do it without your help.

The Magic of Body Acceptance with Jessamyn Stanley

Jessamyn just wants Alan to be happy, but, knowing he's an Aquarius, she thinks it will be challenging. In a wide ranging conversation, they discuss how the modern health and wellness industry has been co-opted by diet culture, why being bullied as a kid helped Jessamyn handle online trolling from Donald Trump Jr., the surprising truth about why every single man loves fat women, and how Jessamyn makes yoga more accessible by encouraging students to show up exactly as they are — even if that means crying or farting in class.Jessamyn Stanley is the Founder of The Underbelly - #1 yoga app for body acceptance, self-love and accessing your inner power.We want to keep making the show for you, but we can't do it without your help.
