MoF Mini: Men as a Matter of Fat

Image Descriptions: This minisode cover has a graphic background of colorful squares in the Matter of Fat colors: teal, periwinkle, dark purple, goldenrod, and lime green. On top of the squares are photos of the 5 men featured in this episode. Each are vector images (some head shots, some from the waist up) popping out of the frame. The Matter of Fat logo sits bottom left followed by the minisode title “men as a matter of fat”.

show notes:

Matter of Fat is a body positive podcast with Midwest sensibilities. Full episodes highlight community voices with a focus on body size, body positivity, + fat liberation.

In this minisode, hosts Cat Polivoda and Saraya Boghani highlight men’s experiences and perspectives within body positivity and fat liberation. Ben, Ian Harris, Jeff Jenkins, Koichi Macgregor, and Gianluca Russo are featured in this mega minisode.
