  • Out of F*cks to Give with Carla Sosenko

    Out of F*cks to Give with Carla Sosenko
    2025/07/03
    Carla Sosenko grew up with a rare vascular disorder, a body that didn’t conform and a deep love of fashion that helped her feel seen. In this intimate conversation, the author of the new memoir I'll Look So Good in a Coffin opens up about navigating shame, self-worth, and beauty standards in a culture obsessed with thinness. We talk about what it means to dress a body that defies expectations, how weight-loss drugs like semaglutide shift our internal narratives, and why turning forty might just be the best thing that ever happens to your self-esteem.

  • Sunday Nice Things: Fierce

    Sunday Nice Things: Fierce
    2025/06/29
    Many years ago I made a podcast about the bad ass women left out of too many history books. Today I am dropping Fierce in your feed. This episode is about Jeannette Rankin, the first woman elected to Congress. Years before the United States ratified the 19th amendment, a woman from Montana had already infiltrated Capitol Hill. Jeannette Rankin rose through the ranks of the women’s suffrage movement, bringing an electric energy to every town she visited. Her activism earned her a place on the ballot in 1916, and she landed a seat as a congressional representative for Montana - the first woman to ever achieve this distinction in the United States. As a congressperson, Jeannette became an integral part of 20th century US history from voting against entering World War I, to battling for women’s suffrage on the floor of congress, to making herself known as a pacifist again during World War II and later, the Vietnam War.

  • All of Our Thoughts on Poop Cruise with Nick Aster

    All of Our Thoughts on Poop Cruise with Nick Aster
    2025/06/28
    The number one show on Netflix right now is Poop Cruise. What happens when a Carnival cruise ship loses power in the middle of the Gulf of Mexico and thousands of passengers are left with no food, no working toilets, and no way out? You get a poop cruise. In this special episode we break down the gloriously grotesque Netflix documentary Trainwreck: Poop Cruise, a surprisingly funny, bizarrely moving, and fully revolting story of what happens when modern luxury hits the fan. We talk poop bags, cruise ship class dynamics, soft American resilience, and why we’ll never look at a lasagna the same way again. Come for the sewage, stay for the Soviet bartender, and leave with a renewed appreciation for land. And also, buy Jo’s new book Everyone Is Lying to You, which, unlike a Carnival cruise, will not make you pee in a shower. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

    Real Talk on Weight Loss Drugs
    2025/06/26
    We get real about weight loss drugs in this episode—no shame, no BS. Journalist Kara Baskin joins me to talk side effects, societal judgment, and the weird, wonderful, often infuriating experience of being a woman in a changing body. This isn’t about chasing skinny. It’s about reclaiming comfort, confidence, and control in a culture that tells us we can’t win either way. Read Kara's work here. Join our newsletter community here.

  • It’s Giving Junior Varsity Tradwife: The Viral Pipeline Grooming Gen Z Girls

    It’s Giving Junior Varsity Tradwife: The Viral Pipeline Grooming Gen Z Girls
    2025/06/23
    This week, we're talking to journalist EJ Dickson of The Cut about what really happens at Turning Point USA’s Young Women’s Leadership Summit, where thousands of Gen Z girls gather to hear influencers tell them the future is feminine, submissive, and off the grid. But here’s the twist: it doesn’t look extreme. It looks aspirational. It looks like a lifestyle brand. We break down how the conservative movement is packaging traditional gender roles as empowerment, why this message is resonating with teenage girls, and how the left still hasn’t figured out how to compete with the fantasy. This is what the influencer pipeline looks like when it’s wearing a sundress. Read E.J.'s piece on The Cut here. Join our newsletter community here. Pre-order EVERYONE IS LYING TO YOU here.

  • Sunday Nice Things: (RE) Committed

    Sunday Nice Things: (RE) Committed
    2025/06/22
    Today I am dropping an episode of my new mini-series (Re) Committed here. (Re) Committed dives into stories of love lost and found again when people least expect it. This series was inspired by Christine Pride's new novel, All the Men I've Loved Again, which is based on her own second chance romance when she fell in love with the same two men in her twenties and again in her forties. Today we hear Christine's story of how she fell for her college boyfriend and then a handsome young TV producer when she moved to New York City. How she lost touch with both as she built her own career and how she reconnected with the same men twenty years later during the pandemic and found true love with one of them.

  • The PBS Kids Crisis: It’s Not Just About Sesame Street

    The PBS Kids Crisis: It’s Not Just About Sesame Street
    2025/06/19
    What happens when the U.S. government slashes one-third of PBS Kids' funding? Shows get canceled. Summer camps disappear. The most vulnerable kids lose access to free, educational media. Today we're talking with Sara DeWitt of PBS Kids about what Trump's recent cut what that means for shows like Daniel Tiger and Molly of Denali, and why public media is still one of the most powerful tools we have to reach and teach all children—especially the ones algorithms forget.
