Move over, TikTok trends, there's a new challenge in town: adulting! Join us this week as we spill the tea on what it's like to live alone for the first time in our thirties, complete with highs, lows, and everything in between. Plus, we dive into the colorful world of Pride Month and discuss the frustration of performative allyship (we're looking at you, Target and Bud Light) and the rise of the Y'all Queda. And if that's not enough, we get real about ditching the highlight reel and embracing vulnerability. Don't miss out on the laughs, insights, and maybe even a few tears on this week's episode! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/biggerthanme/support

Dear Hollywood, If you insist on making a film that shows exactly what you think of fat people, couldn't you at least use a fat actor? Please read Lindy West's article written for The Guardian discussing just how awful this movie is here: "The Whale is not a masterpiece – it's a joyless, harmful fantasy of fat squalor." --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/biggerthanme/support

She's ranting and raving, and, once again, all over the place. I owe an apology to a bunch of influencers for last week's episode, and I owe myself a lot of apologies too.

One day, I'm going to write it like no one will read it. Until then, this is my journey, and I share it to remind anyone listening out there that you're not crazy. And you're not alone.

Not a ridiculous amount of rage, just like a normal amount of rage. It's all over the place, but it's entertaining. Guest Host: Gabriel Silva @g.rilla

She's fresh off a mental breakdown and ready to talk to herself for 30 minutes. Enjoy! Also, if your job is to take advantage of mentally ill people, who hurt you?

This is not an episode about John Meyer. This is the ramblings of a mentally ill millennial. As always, thanks so much for being here.

She's fresh off a new mental illness diagnosis, and she is feeling all the things. There's some funny stuff, there's some scary stuff, there's a healthy amount of rambling, as per usual. Thanks for being here. I don't say that enough.

I spent all day worrying about putting out the perfect episode. This is anything but the perfect episode. Enjoy!

That's it. That's the notes. I'd rather adjust to your absence than be frustrated by your presence.

TRIGGER WARNING: This one is about how The Supreme Court failed us. All of us.

Being confident in your fat body isn't a crime, but let's get an attitude about it anyway. Enjoy, trolls!

This one isn't fun or funny. If you don't support gun control, this one isn't for you and neither am I.

FU, A&F. And other hot takes. Start microwaving those pizza rolls and grab your favorite blanket. This one's got drama.

This episode is gonna be like the backroads to Myrtle Beach. There are about a million different turns, some of it is sad, and you definitely could've gone a more direct route. But we're here together, so just remember, don't scream, call Akim. That joke is only funny if you've driven the backroads to Myrtle Beach. This week I'm bringing you a collection of thoughts from my undiagnosed ADHD brain. Enjoy!

I don't know the secret to happiness, but I do know that it doesn‘t come from anyone's opinion of me. Let's get into it!
