8 Months Away From The Racist Diet Industry Part 3: The BS Body Standard Culture with Guest Tooky Kavanagh

8 Months Away From The Racist Diet Industry Part 3: The BS Body Standard Culture with Guest Tooky Kavanagh

We're back and very excited to have the third part of our look into the racist diet industry!! On this week's episode we have the very funny and very fantastic Tooky Kavanagh with us to discuss her experiences as a Black woman in the American diet culture. She gives us an insight into her upbringing as someone thought to be "Not Black enough" and "Not White Enough" and sometimes Italian, depending on the Uber driver she gets. Tooky explains how changing schools changed her own outlook, how school girls are "trash" and shares a story about a train platform in LA. All three of us share our thoughts on the body positivity movement, as well as "plus size models". We're dishing a lot, spilling tea and Tooky would like for you all to know that she's sorry.  Also, follow Tooky on Social Media: @Tookymonster.

8 Months Away From Being President

Welcome back our new and returning friends!!! On today's episode we're getting into all sorts of cool and hip stuff like whether comedians should get a little more original with roast jokes and how disgustingly filling vegan food can be when it's made with loooooove. We also discuss Speaker Pelosi calling President Trump "Morbidly obese" in a television interview and what are the pitfalls of making such a claim, as well as reactions in the face of what the president has called women (as well as many others) in the past. Also, stick around past the outro music...we got a post credit scene!!!
