Diet Culture (ft. Heather Elaine Abbott)

Equally Funny

Cait and co-host Heather Elaine Abbott tackle Diet Culture, tracing its origins to the 1800s and talking through present day incarnations of the lie that skinny = happy, healthy, and beautiful. They call out the recent sneaky repackaging of diet culture into wellness culture, and how it’s really all the same Scooby-Doo villain in a different mask. The episode concludes with a discussion of our co-hosts’ journey moving away from diet culture, places where listeners can learn more, and a robust convo about some TV shows our co-hosts would like to see translated into musicals. 

CW: This episode includes some discussion of diets and eating disorders. 

Spoiler Alert: There is a very tiny spoiler about WandaVision, but if you aren’t up to date…that’s kind of on you.
