Good Bodies
Hosted by Betches Media · EN
Welcome to Good Bodies, a “wellness” entertainment podcast where all bodies are good bodies. If you’re still reeling from the toxic diet culture of the early 2000s (justice for Jessica Simpson) and constantly quoting your therapist, then Emily Lubin and Lauren Hope Krass are here to help you laugh (so you don’t cry). Diets can’t sit with us anymore but there’s a place at the table for body neutrality, body positivity, intuitive eating, and hot takes about which non-dairy creamer pairs best with our sharp cheddar cheese omelettes. For more Good Bodies content and the most relatable shit on the internet, follow us on Instagram at @everythingsfine.

Jul 28, 2024Tap to summarizeOn today’s episode of Good Bodies, Emily and Lauren are super excited to discuss the documentary “Your Fat Friend, A Film By Jeanie Finlay '' which is about podcaster, author and all around bad-ass Aubrey Gordon. The film chronicles Aubrey’s journey from anonymous blogger to the well-known public figure she is today. Our hosts are confronted with some deep questions like “Is the work worth it?” and for Lauren, “Do people actually want to listen to fat people?” Whether you’re familiar with Aubrey’s work or not, this episode is a great listen for people of all sizes, anyone who has struggled with an eating disorder or anyone who has family members who might mean well but who just don’t get it. https://vimeo.com/ondemand/yrfatfriendfilm Learn more about your ad choices.

Mar 31, 2024Tap to summarizeOn Today’s Episode of Diet Starts Tomorrow, Emily and Lauren recap Oprah’s recent TV special “Shame, Blame, and The Weight Loss Revolution”. They watched it so you don’t have to and they are both traumatized but also somehow laughing? Segment by segment, they recap what was said and then provide some context and their honest reactions. Confusion abounds. Finally they close with some statements from experts who found the special to be problematic. This episode is a bit of a wild ride and emotions run high so the hosts did just want to share a quick note: “We definitely do not pass judgment on anyone taking these drugs for weight loss. Not even a little bit. We just found the whole way this special was done to be manipulative, confusing and shame-inducing.”https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/1555137https://www.nytimes.com/2013/01/03/opinion/our-imaginary-weight-problem.html Learn more about your ad choices.
