The first episode of a funny, real and inspiring podcast. People always told me I was funny and should do stand up. I hesitated because this shit comes naturally, I just have a funny personality. In the most serious of moments, mostly anything that I say can cause someone to laugh. A good friend of mine started his podcast some time ago (he's half of thecurepodcast, check'em out) and told me I should do one. After going back and forth, featuring on my other friend's podcast (thegroupchat) and finally realizing I might want to do this -- THEPODCASTGIRL was born.
The basis of my podcast is to bring awareness to the issues we as fat girls face. Now most of the issues, situations and experiences that I discuss are universal. However there has never been a set platform ( I could be mistaken) that fat girls have. In a very cliche way, I want to be the voice for us. Many people live their lives bogged down and censored, NOT I. I want to show my people, our people that you can live free, say what you want and eat some snacks while doing it and not be judged- FUCK THAT. BOTTOMLINE- I'm gonna always be me soooooo YOU should ALWAYS be YOU!
Episode one took a dive into the agonizing issue fat girls face, CLOTHING. Everyone wants to have "plus sizes" to appeal to their "bigger" customers. But are the clothes really plus size? Why is it so expensive? Why is is so hard to keep up with the trends without spending your rent money on a pair of pants? I had a very funny and in-depth conversation with Kashmademedoit from 2501 Clothing Co. He did shed some light on a few things but I still feel some type of way that my XL shirt fits like a SMALL. All my shirt shouldn't turn in to a crop top when I take my bra off! CLICK the link below to listen to episode 1.
