A Loving Look at Fat: Tell Me I'm Fat

Welcome back! This brief series has explored the history of fat, some varied ways of viewing bodyfat, including appreciating the information and support we receive from the adipose tissues within us. Today's offering focuses on the varied personal and social experiences that several individual storytellers have had around bodyfat, or being fat.

This episode of This American Life really caught my attention earlier this year, challenged some of my assumptions, and gave me an honest view into some experiences I'd not considered previously. I found it to be an excellent, artfully told, and thought-provoking piece, and I hope it gets you thinking and feeling into your own ideas and assumptions more deeply.

The episode is called Tell Me I'm Fat and you can listen to it here.
