TW (discussion of eating disorders, fatphobia, diet culture) begins 15:30, but we’d like to say here, as Sam said in the recording, that if you do have a history of eating disorders we encourage you to listen, there is no explicitly triggering content in the podcast (e.g. we do not describe behaviour explicitly and there is no discussion of numbers [i.e. weight or calories]).

20:00 Sam knows that it's 500 pounds a year but Sam at this moment decided to try adjusting for inflation on the fly and apparently this was close ish to the 2014 figure of what 500 pounds in 1929 would be, according to this.

26:10 The Maintenance Phase (Sam’s favourite podcast that has been very important to their recovery)

28:00

- The Obesity Epidemic episode of TMP

- BMI episode of TMP

29:40

- Our Met Gala Video episode xoxooxo

51:54 - 52:30 EXTRA TW: Sam mentions something they did when they were in their ED, not numbers but a sad and real thing

55:30 - Sam is continuing to own the statement that they have pretty privilege. They know this might come across weirdly, but like no it’s true, don’t @ me.

This week Sam and Danushi talk about cinema, if the female gaze exists, and why the male gaze is not just 'men looking at things'. We then go what we've been waiting for our whole life. Its Gilmore Girls deep dive time.

Notes:

9:21 Sam would like to acknowledge that unfortunately “seminal” comes from the same root as “semen” and the use of this word may perhaps be in itself contributing to the phallocentric order; perhaps “germinal” would’ve been a better word to use here.

This week, Danushi tells Sam about the history of hysteria, and what it's become in modern medicine.

Correction: we refer to "CPTSD" as childhood post-traumatic stress disorder, when in fact it is more accurately known as complex post-traumatic stress disorder.

We don't talk about that movie but this is our grand podcast return where we discuss so many things. Sam thinks the episode is funny. We hope you agree. We did zero editing. You're getting raw, uncut content.

This week we're talking about But I'm A Cheerleader and Sam and Danushi's lesbianisms.
