Customer Reviews
Fun, honest, & raw take on complicated relationship we have with our bodies
This podcast is educational, honest, and fun in its goal of dismantling stigma around our bodies. Hosts Jen and Kat are a riot, ask amazing questions, and are thoughtful about what guests they invite to be interviewed so that there a breadth of life experience and identity represented. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed the first few episodes and am looking forward to the rest.
My friends and I used to do this very thing!
Back when I was in college (20 years ago), my friends and I did this very thing. We’d sit around naked and talk about body image. It was the best. I can completely vouch for the way that it opens up space for honest, deep conversation in a really special way. It is always a joy to hear this podcast! It makes me feel good about my body and the bodies around me in the same way my friends in college used to.
Not just skin deep
When is nakedness not about nudity? When it's The Naked Podcast. BBC Sheffield presenters Kat Harbourne and Jenny Eells meet and chat with other women in an atmosphere of mutual discovery, encouragement and support. The nudity is tangential. Check it out. As a guy, I’ve learned things about women’s lives I never had a chance to know.
