Big Sexy Chat Podcast

Chrystal Bougon

Big Sexy Chat is a bold, unfiltered podcast exploring fatness, pleasure, identity, and the realities of living in a body the world wasn’t built for. Hosted by Chrystal, the show features candid conversations with guests across the fat, sex-positive, and body liberation communities. Together, they dig into everything from relationships, intimacy, and adaptive sex, to medical bias, media representation, mental health, and the politics of existing out loud. This isn’t surface-level body positivity. It’s deeper, messier, and more honest. Big Sexy Chat creates space for stories that don’t get told often enough, centering fat voices without apology, without shame, and without shrinking to fit someone else’s comfort. Expect real talk, hard truths, humor, and moments that stay with you. Because pleasure, dignity, and visibility aren’t luxuries… they’re rights.

From the emotional vulnerability of sharing her own experiences to the intense preparation required for just a few minutes on stage, Jen opens up about the pressure, growth, and courage behind the moment.

In This Episode, We Talk About: What it’s really like to be invited to give a TEDx talkThe vulnerability of sharing personal experiences on a global stageHow Jen prepared for one of the biggest speaking moments of her careerWeight bias and the importance of treating people with dignityTravel barriers and accessibility challenges for people in larger bodiesWhy this advocacy work continues to matterAbout Jen McClellan Jen McClellan is the founder of Plus Size Birth, a certified childbirth educator, and the voice behind the Plus Mommy Podcast.

    Still Here, Still Fat: What 2025 Took, What 2026 Demands

    Send a text As 2025 comes to a close, Big Sexy Chat gathers for an end-of-year roundtable conversation about what this year took, what it revealed, and what the fat community is being asked to carry forward into 2026. Joined by Saucye West, Bruce Sturgell, and Ronald Young Jr., this conversation moves beyond headlines and buzzwords to talk honestly about autonomy, weight loss culture, respectability politics, community fatigue, and the realities of staying visible in a world that keeps asking fat people to disappear. We talk about GLP-1 medications and the “magic wand” narrative, but more importantly, we talk about truth-telling, conditional acceptance, and what it means to keep showing up when comfort is offered only if you comply. This episode isn’t neat. It’s reflective, sometimes heavy, sometimes hopeful, and deeply human. Still here. Still fat. Still paying attention. Guests Saucye West Plus-size model, fat fashion influencer, and activist. Saucye is the creator of the #FatAndFree movement and a long-time advocate for extended sizing, fat liberation, and unapologetic visibility, particularly for superfat and infinite fat bodies. Bruce Sturgell Founder of Chubstr and co-host of the Heavy Conversation podcast. Bruce has spent over a decade creating resources, fashion guidance, and media for fat men and masculine-presenting people. Ronald Young Jr. Award-winning audio producer, storyteller, and host of Weight For It. Ronald’s work explores fatness, culture, and storytelling, and has been recognized by Tribeca, The Podcast Academy, Vulture, Vogue, and The New York Times. Due to a technical issue, Ronald was disconnected near the end of the episode. You can find more of his work through Weight For It and his current projects.

    ChitChat with ToyChats: The Reviews Are In

    Send a text In this episode, we’re joined by Cam Jennings from ToyChats.com, a platform built entirely around user-generated sex toy reviews. We talk about why ToyChats exists in the first place, how the platform actually works, and what makes a review useful versus just noise. Cam breaks down the difference between brand-driven reviews and reviews from real people, how reviewers get paid, and what they’re looking for before a review goes live. We also dig into why ToyChats actively wants everyday people reviewing toys, not just influencers or industry insiders, and why having a wide range of bodies, experiences, and opinions makes sex toy shopping safer and more helpful for everyone. If you’ve ever wished you could hear how a toy actually works for someone who isn’t being paid by the brand, this conversation gives a really clear look at how ToyChats is trying to fill that gap.

You’ll hear:  • What early “hysteria treatments” actually looked like  • The legacy of queer and disabled communities in sex-tech innovation  • The truth about devices like the Sybian, Motorbunny, Cowgirl, and thrusting machines • How smart toys, remote-controlled vibrators, e-stim, and violet wands are changing long-distance and partner play • Accessibility wins (and fails) in sex-machine design for fat bodies, disabled bodies, and anyone with chronic pain • Why sex dolls and AI companions are becoming more common, including their emotional + therapeutic implications • Real talk about safety, consent, sensory limits, grounding devices, and what not to stick anywhere This conversation is part sex-tech history lesson, part kink education, part comedy hour.
