Podcasts about Marti Noxon

Before we start the show today…Have you donated to the Me Little Me Virtual Food Pantry? This amazing organization works to get low-income folks (many of whom are in eating disorder recovery) fed — and with the food of their choosing. Meaning yes, ultra processed foods that bring comfort and convenience, and yes to beloved cultural foods…and yes to trusting folks in need to know what they need.We're trying to raise $12,000 and add 50 recurring donors to their rosters by June 1 AND WE ARE SO CLOSE TO OUR GOAL. But we need your help to crush it! Thank you!You're listening to Burnt Toast! Today, my conversation is with the iconic Sarai Walker. Sarai is the author of The Cherry Robbers and Dietland, which came out in May 2015—and is celebrating its 10th anniversary this month.Dietland is one of those books that means so much to me, it's hard to put into words. I consider it a foundational text of the body liberation movement of the past decade. It was adapted as a television series starring Joy Nash for AMC in 2018. It's just one of those books—that inducted so many of us into conversations about fatness, feminism, radical social action. Sarai has also lectured on feminism and body image internationally. Her articles and essays have appeared in The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Guardian and elsewhere, and she worked as a writer and editor on an updated version of Our Bodies, Ourselves.I asked Sarai to join me today to reflect on what 10 years of Dietland has meant to her. We also talk a lot about the very mixed experience of being a public fat person, as well as being a woman, and a writer, in midlife. You will love this conversation.And!

I read it pretty soon after it came out, and I remember reading about Plum and Calliope House and the Jennifer vigilantes who were killing all the evil men, and just thinking, how is she in my brain? How is she writing my whole heart in this story? So to start us off with what is probably an impossible question: How does that feel, to have contributed something that is so important to the canon? And by canon, I mean the fat feminist literary canon.SaraiIt's funny, as an author, I don't know if I feel it the way you're describing it. Man, I hope that that's the case! I guess it's for other people to decide what a book's legacy is, whether it's important or not. What I can say—you know, the book turns 10 this month, and it has really meant a lot to me over the years that people have just connected with it in such a positive way.People related to Plum's story, they really felt that I put into words something that only they had felt, which was one of the things that I really had to work hard on in the book, because I had all these feelings about my own experience with my own body. And I was like, how do I put that into words? So that was the struggle of writing the book and being able to do that. I was so happy when people really felt that the book could speak for them in certain ways, that it gave them a voice.I still hear from people! I heard from somebody just yesterday who said the book changed their life. We live in an age where so many things just seem disposable, and people forget about things and move on really quickly. Dietland, whatever its legacy may be, it has had a long life.VirginiaWe should say, for folks who don't know publishing: For a book to still be in print 10 years later is incredible. The vast majority of books have a year, two years, and then they're done. It is a huge accomplishment, and a huge contribution.SaraiIt means a lot to me. It's getting a new French publication and a new translation over there. So, you know, my girl keeps on going. And it's funny, because I think one of the things that people enjoyed about the book was the anger and the rage in it, and the revenge fantasy narrative about Jennifer.At the same time, some people were like, oh, well, things aren't that bad. You're exaggerating. Fast forward from 2015 to 2025, and things are worse than I could have ever imagined back then.VirginiaYou downplayed it a little bit.SaraiExactly. So I feel in this weird way, kind of vindicated? That's not a great feeling. But it's just so weird that the 10th anniversary is coming at a time when there's this huge backlash against feminism, against fat. Even something as watered down as body positivity is under attack, you know? It just tells you how bad things are. So in that sense, it's sort of bittersweet to have the anniversary at this time, because things are really just heartbreaking and scary right now.VirginiaBut also: We need the book more than ever. We need the Dietland story more than ever, because things are so scary right now. It gives us a way of articulating that. It gives us a place to put those feelings.SaraiI hope that new readers find the book now in this new climate that we're in and people who read it before might revisit it. I've actually thought of writing some new Jennifer stories. I feel like they would have to be so, so violent and so filled with rage, I don't know if they would be healthy for me, but I've thought about unleashing Jennifer on MAGA.VirginiaI personally am very here for this and yery, very supportive of this idea. I think there would be an audience. I would really love to see Jennifer take on MAGA and MAHA and RFK Jr. in particular.SaraiIf I end up in prison, though, I don't know.VirginiaI'm hearing that concern, as we're saying it out loud. Fictionalized versions of these things, perhaps.SaraiNames changed.VirginiaI mean, you're busy, you're doing lots of things, but it would be a public service.Many more folks discovered Dietland after it became a TV show, which aired in 2018. It was created by Marti Noxon of Buffy the Vampire Slayer fame. And it starred the incredible Joy Nash. And we only got 10 magic episodes. It's a really great season, but we only got the one season. I would love to hear how you felt about the show? I've always wondered what that feels like, to have a novel go into on the screen. It's got to be such a strange experience.SaraiIt is strange and surreal. Looking back now, it's hard to believe that it happened. I think so many writers do get their book optioned, but to actually have it not just optioned, but then go into production and become a television series is pretty rare. So I feel lucky that I had that.The show premiered three years after the book was published, which is so fast, but that was kind of the golden age of TV, I think.It was a great experience. Marti really welcomed me in. I went out to the writer's room, and I worked as a consultant. I got to visit the set in New York. And basically the the 10 episodes that we got were the whole book. So, I'm really sad that it didn't go on, that we didn't get at least a season two, preferably five seasons would have been great. But AMC just kind of bailed out on it. There was a lot of drama there going on behind the scenes that had nothing to do with the show that contributed to that.When the show was canceled, one of the cast members posted something on social media saying, “I'm so tired of shows about women that try and do interesting and groundbreaking things just being canceled and not given a chance to grow.” It's very hard to build an audience in one ten episode season. So I just felt like the show wasn't given that chance. And so that makes it a little bit bittersweet. But I treasure the ten episodes that we did get. It's an incredible privilege that we got that.Amd the show was pretty faithful to the book, actually, I thought. When I got there to the writer's room, they were already at work and they were using it as their Bible and I was this kind of like goddess of this world. It was really weird.VirginiaThat's amazing.SaraiAll these people working on something that came from my head. It was surreal.VirginiaAnd Joy as Plum—she's amazing and really embodies the character.SaraiShe is so great. I just love Joy. When I was living out in LA we used to go out to lunch, and she's so fun and just so sweet. And, yeah, I really loved working with her, and having her play Plum.VirginiaSo you mentioned feeling like a goddess in the writers room. But putting this out there did launch you as a Public Facing Fat Person, which I put in capital letters. It's an experience that that I've had, a little bit as well. And it is a real mixed bag. It's just really a weird experience to be professionally fat, especially because, in your case, your subsequent work has had nothing to do with fatness. And yet, I'm sure this is still something that comes up.SaraiYeah, I mean, you know what it's like to be publicly fat. Everyone reacts to it differently. I'm a novelist, so I'm very introverted. The book was published in 2015 and then the paperback in 2016 and the British edition, which was a whole wild ride with the media over there.VirginiaOh god, I am sorry. I know and I'm sorry.SaraiYeah. It made our media look okay!VirginiaNo, it's terrible. The British media is so awful in general, and it's so specifically fatphobic. Anytime I've done anything with the British media, it's been a deeply scarring experience.SaraiIt was awful. I had a big newspaper over there wanted me to write this big article for them, and they're like, “You have to put your weight in the article.”VirginiaI mean, what?SaraiAnd then another website, this feminist website, was like “We want pictures of you to use as stock photos for other articles on body positivity.”VirginiaI'm sorry, can you not find other fat people??SaraiI'm the only one that exists. I don't know if you know that, but I'm the only one.And so, I had years of this. I was on NPR, talking about being fat. I was on MSNBC. I was on other radio shows. I mean, that's the game, right? And at that time, “obesity epidemic” rhetoric was a really big thing. So my book had this hook, which isn't common for novels, but I got all these interviews and so I had to go along with it, and go out there.On the one hand, it's really radical to be like, “Yeah, I'm fat,” and to speak about it in a neutral or positive way. It's radical. It's a taboo. And there aren't a lot of taboos left. But it also just was hard to constantly have my body mentioned all the time. I remember Julianna Margulies, who was on the TV show, did an interview on a podcast talking about me and said something like, “Oh, Sarai's a big girl.” Which is fine. I mean, that's the thing, that's what I wrote about. And that's what it was like, actors, radio hosts, journalists, all referring to me as big or fat. And I'm not blaming them at all, but it was just the effect it had on me over time, was like, I started to kind of feel like a fat lady in like a circus or something. But I was reduced to the it was always about my bodyVirginiaAnd you're like, “I'm actually a writer. I have this whole incredible ability to invent a world. Not many people can do that. Could we maybe talk about that?” Just a thought.SaraiIt was really hard for me. I thought I would love being in the spotlight, and it was harder than I thought it would be.VirginiaI appreciate you saying that. I think it is really hard. I've had a smaller experience with it, and that was enough. I don't want more than I've had. I have a friend who says, “You don't really know how you feel about a book until three years after the book came out. You need that time to survive.” The whole experience of launching a book—especially if a book does well—is like you're basically disassociating a lot of the time to get through all the interviews and the press and the backlash and the trolls and whatever it creates. And then your nervous system needs time to slowly absorb what you just experienced. For me, one piece of it is like, okay, that was enough. I don't need more scrutiny on my body or my life. We don't owe the world that. And there's a weird expectation that because you made a thing or wrote a thing that people are connecting with, you somehow owe them more of yourself.SaraiAnd it's like you're saying, if you kind of step back, it's like, am I disappointing people? And I don't want to do that.VirginiaBut I'm still a person with a life and my own needs.SaraiI've always been fat. When I was a kid and growing up as a young adult, I was deeply ashamed of being fat. And I had the kind of the experience of Plum in Dietland, where I eventually experienced liberation about my body. But that trauma doesn't go away. So having everybody talk about me being fat all the time, it kind of triggers off things that you thought you had dealt with, or were at peace with. Then all of a sudden, it's like picking in a scab all the time.Even in the writers room for Dietland, I was the only fat woman in there. So that was my role. I'm the fat person. I have to tell you what it's like to be fat. And it was just always focusing on that. And that's what happens when you put out a book about that subject. I'm not really complaining about it. It was just harder than I thought it would be and it took a toll on me.VirginiaIt's a weird experience, and it's weird that it's a necessary part of getting this conversation into the mainstream.When Fat Talk came out, Aubrey Gordon texted me and was like, “I'm checking in to see how you're doing, because the book's doing well” Because, obviously, she's had lots of experience as a public fat person. And she was like, “Thanks for taking your turn in the trenches.” And that is kind of how it feels. In order to keep this conversation going around fat liberation and body liberation, we do need to keep putting this work out there. Somebody has to go to the front of the line and take all the hits for a while. And you did it at a time when not many people were getting a big stage to do that. And without a network of other people who had done it, maybe. So thank you.SaraiOh, well, you're welcome. And thank you for everything you do. Because I remember after your New York Times interview, I DMed you. I was like, “Are you okay?” Because I know what it's like to write something and the New York Times people go nuts when it's about fat. I'm like, are you all right? Because we have to look out for each other, you know?VirginiaI really appreciated it when you did that. It wasn't the most fun experience in my life. When we were talking about doing this episode, you were also saying how, as a writer you have gone on to write things that don't have anything to do with fatness. It's not like being a journalist on a beat. So I'm sure that's also challenging, that you're like, this can't always be the most interesting thing about me. That's not fair.SaraiYeah. I mean, my second novel, The Cherry Robbers—VirginiaWhich I loved!SaraiOh, thank you. That was historical. The novel took place mostly in the 1950s. I wanted something totally different. I didn't want to be in the contemporary culture. When the book came out, it got a glowing review in The New York Times, and great reviews, but people just weren't interested in talking to me anymore.I mean, part of that's is the publishing world thing, where your debut is like a debutante ball, and everybody wants to talk to you. And then once it's your second or third book, it's like, oh, yeah, we moved on from you. Sorry, I sound really jaded right now! But without that kind of a newsy hook, people just weren't interested really in talking to me anymore about the book. I think you could be tempted to say, “Okay, well, I'm going to write another book about fatness so I can get back in the media attention.” But no. As you say, other people have stepped up in their writing about it, and they're doing the work on it now. I had my time, I had my voice. I'm not saying I'll never write about being fat again. I'm sure I'll write an essay or who knows what, but I am just doing other things now. I've tried to carve out my space as a writer who is fat and who writes about all different kinds of things.VirginiaNo one needs a thin writer to keep writing about thinness. No one needs a male writer to keep writing about the experience of being a man. It's only when you have some kind of marginalization that people then expect that to be everything you write and think about. As opposed to saying, this is a person who writes and thinks about lots of different things. And happens to be this identity, and cares a lot about that identity and has thoughts about it. But every piece of work doesn't need to be defined by that.SaraiYeah. I mean, I live as a fat person. That's my reality. I'm not running away from it. It is who I am. It's inextricably linked to who I am. But I as a as a writer, as a person, I get bored easily. I want new challenges. I want to write new types of stories.In my next novel, the narrator is fat. But I only mention it once in the novel, so it's sort of like playing around with, yeah, this character is fat, but that's not really that relevant to the story that I'm telling. It's there, and it kind of comes up in other ways, but it's not the whole story. So kind of an evolution, I guess, too, of how I'm writing about fat, at least in fiction.VirginiaThat's where we need to get with representation—where every story about a fat character should not be just about their experience of fatness. That's so reductive. We need more characters that happen to be fat, that are doing other things. SaraiYeah, I think that that's the ultimate goal. I don't think we're there yet in any kind of medium. But, yeah, that would be the dream.VirginiaWe're working towards it.You were also saying that you feel like just a very different kind of writer now than when you wrote Dietland, which is a book with so much anger and fire in it. It's a gauntlet thrown. You described yourself as feeling “less fiery and more muted now,” but I also wonder if this is just being older and wiser and maybe a little more jaded— but also clearer about which mountains you're willing to die on now.SaraiI wrote Dietland in my 30s. But it was published when I was 42 because it took forever to find an agent. Then when we sold it, it took forever to come out. Publishing is quite slow. But that was the novel of my 30s. And I look back now at this anniversary, and I was so fired up. I was so passionate. I was bold and fierce and brave.Some of the things I wrote, I don't know if I would write now, if I'd be brave enough. So I look at that person who wrote Dietland, and I'm not exactly that person anymore. And it's something that's been bothering me for a while.And recently, I listened to an interview with Zadie Smith on the NPR Wildcard podcast. She and I are about the same age, 50-ish, going through all the hormonal changes of this time of life. And she was talking about her earlier books and how she thinks about herself when she was younger versus how she is now. She was talking about how now, at midlife, she feels kind of quieter inside. Her big personality has sort of retracted a little bit. And when I heard her say that, I just was blown away, because that's what I've been experiencing too. And I haven't really heard a lot of other people talking about it, and I hadn't really put it into words or myself. I think because it was upsetting to feel a bit more low key, a bit more apathetic.I'm not really an apathetic person. I've never thought of myself that way. But I kind of feel that way now, so it's a weird time in my life. And I've had women who are older say it gets better. Like, just wait, ride this out, and you're going to come out on the other side of this older and wiser and happier. But right now, I'm just kind of in this weird space where I just feel different. I'm a different person in some ways. I have the same values, but I'm a different kind of a writer, different kind of a person. I'm settling. That's where I am right now. I'm kind of in the thick of it. VirginiaI think we don't often hear this nuance from people after they do something that has the kind of impact and success that Dietland has. We often think, well that person just continues to soar and it's all the next peak and the next peak. And that's not every experience. Probably that's not most people's experiences after having a big success. It's okay that there are valleys and different paths and different twists and turns to it.My other thought is: How could you not be feeling that way right now, given what the world is? Given what it means to be a woman right now? And everything that we're up against. I think there's a some universal—maybe it's apathy, maybe it's… I don't know what it is, exactly. But this feels deeply relatable to me on a lot of levels.SaraiI think going through midlife and perimenopause, at a time when the whole world seems to be a disaster makes it a lot worse. Everybody is coming off the pandemic and Roe v Wade being overturned, and now Trump in office again. Our baseline is just really bad, you know? It's just kind of everything piled on at once.But it is true, I talked to some other women I know my age, who who've written novels in the past and have success and then can't get published anymore once they get into their 50s. You expect you're going to go on forever like you do at the beginning. And you have to deal with the publishing industry. It's a corporate industry. And there are lots of things at play that have nothing to do with whether books are good or not, or whether readers want certain books, or whatever.You start out having these expectations about how your career will go, and then you don't realize that it's, it's always a struggle. Unless you're some massive superstar writer who could have their grocery list published. But for the rest of us, it's a struggle that just kind of peaks and valleys, and that has been a kind of wake up call ten years into being a novelist, for sure.VirginiaThe industry is so complicated. I think the ageism is very real in our industry. I mean, and everywhere. I just turned 44 so I'm kind of getting into this zone that you're talking about. Perimenopause is definitely with me. It has begun. And I think a lot there is an invisibility that's starting to kick in, compared to what I experienced as a woman in my 20s or 30s being out in the world. I can, sort of slip by unnoticed a little more sometimes. And sometimes I really like that, and sometimes it makes me angry. Kind of depends on the day. And I don't even just mean male attention. I just mean the way people interact with you. I'm starting to notice some of those shifts.SaraiI think that's one of the things that's so strange about this time of life. There are a lot more adults who are younger than you all of a sudden. So all of a sudden, you've got 20 or 30 years worth of adults that are younger than you that start to see you as not important anymore.VirginiaMy kids like to remind me that Taylor Swift is 35. as if that's an entire different generation from me. That's not that much younger, guys! Okay, anyway.SaraiI mean, yeah, 35, she's getting up there. But it's kind of like you don't matter as much anymore, in a way. Like that's what society wants you to believe. That you're kind of fading. I think that's one of the things that you kind of have to push back against.And, you know, I'm Gen X. VirginiaI'm elder millennial, but I'm one year off of Gen X or something.SaraiI do think Gen X, despite all of our problems and flaws, are writing more about menopause and perimenopause and aging. And your generation will pick up that mantle and do even more with it. So I feel like, we're trying to change things at least and make it so that we're not fading away. I'm in my 50s now. I'm not going anywhere. And I'm still going to write. You're not going to silence me. It's kind of like just insisting that we're still here, we still have a voice. But, yeah, it's hard.VirginiaIt's hard, and when you're feeling that kind of personal, muted thing you were talking about and then it's getting reinforced by the cultural perceptions of being a midlife woman. Then it's like, am I going to summon up all the energy I need to push back against that? Or am I going to take some of that as, like, it's a little bit liberating. I don't have to be the young, shiny superstar reaching for the brass ring right now. It's kind of a mixed thing, I think.SaraiWith Dietland, I was idealistic and passionate and fiery. And I'm different now, but I'm not putting as much pressure on myself either. I'm not saying everything I write, I have to change the world. That's what I wanted before. And now I'm older, and I realize you're not really going to change the world. You might change a few people, and that's great. But one novel is not going to change the world. And I don't need to aim for that anymore. I want to write different things. I want to not put that kind of pressure on myself. So yeah, there's a kind of liberating part to it as well. I think when I'm not so taking myself as seriously and putting so much pressure on myself, I kind of loosened up a little bit. So that's kind of the flip side of the more negative stuff I was talking about a minute ago.VirginiaI appreciate how honest you're being about the struggle, because I just think it is deeply relatable. And then to this end of what you're working on now, we want to hear all about the next book. You have an announcement for us?SaraiYes, so last year, I sold my third novel. But we didn't want to announce it till I had all the edits done and we had the manuscript ready to go. So summer 2026, my third novel is going to be published. It's called Furious Violet, and it's a suspense novel, which is something I always wanted to do. Like a detective story.It's different from what I've written, but I do think there's a little bit of the spirit of Dietland in it, just in the voice, maybe. I guess, because The Cherry Robbers was in the 50s mostly, whereas I'm back and writing about contemporary culture.So I'm really excited about it. I've always wanted to write a book like this, and it's the most fun I've ever had writing a novel.VirginiaI love that.SaraiMy main character, is 49 almost 50, going through perimenopause. I got to write about that experience in a sort of darkly comedic way, which is a medium that I really like, like that dark comedy that Dietland had. She's a true crime writer. She's writing a book about a serial killer, but she's also the daughter of this very famous poet who is deceased, but like a giant of American poetry. This woman who has this cult following, and sort of is always a shadow over my my character's life.So she has that, but she's a true crime writer, and she kind of embraces her mediocrity. She's not a genius like her mom. She's just a true crime writer. And when the book begins, somebody starts stalking her and telling her, “You're my mother.” And she doesn't understand what's going on, because she doesn't have kids. And so it's this mystery about what does this mean, who is this person, and what do they mean? And it's all entangling all of that and all of the other aspects of her life, and how they all intersect. VirginiaI can't wait to read it. I'm riveted just hearing you talk about it.SaraiI had so much fun working on it. It was a wild ride. So thank you. I'm excited.VirginiaI hope you'll come back next summer when it comes out and talk to us about it some more. And I just have to say, I am filled with so much admiration for how you've evolved as a writer and how you like are going in. This book feels so different from Cherry Robbers feels so different from Dietland.SaraiThank you. I don't like to get bored. I want to do new things.SaraiI think publishing kind of wants to put you in a box, and I don't want to be in that box. I wanted to do something different.VirginiaIt's awesome. I can't wait to read it. I'm so excited.SaraiOh, thanks, thank you.ButterVirginiaSarai, do you have any Butter for us right now?SaraiI just came off months and months of edits, and when I'm doing that, I can't read. I can't read other people's stuff. So I don't have any book recommendations. But I'm really excited to start reading again. But I was listening to a lot of music. I often listen to music while I'm writing, but it can't have lyrics, has to be instrumental.I discovered this Canadian classical violinist named Angèle Dubeau. She plays the work of a lot of contemporary composers. And I don't know a lot about classical music. I'm not plugged into the contemporary classical music scene. But through her, I've discovered all these different composers. And she has one piece in particular called Experience. So if you're on Spotify or Apple Music or wherever, I would recommend looking this up. This piece I just absolutely love it. It's so beautiful, and I listen to it so many times. As I was editing, and then I keep listening to her work, and I don't know it just meant a lot to me during this time. So yeah, it was really exciting to discover that.VirginiaThat's incredible. It's so fun to discover an artist and realize there's more and more of their work, and you can go down the rabbit hole of everything they've done. I find that so satisfying.SaraiShe's introduced me to so many different composers, and I really love it.VirginiaThat's so cool. I'll do a music rec as well, although it's not nearly as sophisticated as that. But my seven year old and I are currently on a big kick with the Hamilton soundtrack. Obviously Hamilton, the musical, had its moment a minute ago. Like, it's been around for a while. But it stands the test of time, and it's very fun to listen to with kids. I end up having to answer a lot of strange questions, because for a seven year old, it's just a lot of things that she doesn't know, that she needs translated. So we have some very funny conversations. It's still a banger of a show and really great and fun to listen to a kid. It's our little bedtime ritual. Before we read, she's a kid who needs to really get her energy out. And we have a swing that she likes to swing on, and we play the Hamilton soundtrack and do three or four songs, and it's just like a fun end of day ritual that I'm really enjoying right now.SaraiI love that. I'm still listening to the Xanadu soundtrack or something for my childhood.VirginiaThese things, they're classics for a reason.Obviously, we want everyone to go pick up a 10th anniversary copy of Dietland!Get it if you haven't read it, or if you read it and loved it, but you've lost your original copy, you probably need another one. It's a great gift for someone else, some friend, mom, sister, whoever.

C'est la 5ème saison d'On n'a rien préparé ! On vous retrouve avec bonheur dans ce format désormais connu des internets : entre 30 et 40 minutes d'émission (oups), 3 impros, du fun et des blagues (mais pas que) ! Aujourd'hui, nous accueillons Moana Genevet ! Elle a commencé l'impro il y a 7 ans à Improvisation‧be (où elle est restée deux ans) et, en parallèle, à la FBIA, où elle a rejoint l'équipe des Alliés Nés puis la Croutounz, en 2018, où elle est toujours.

Avec elle, dans cet épisode : 08:05 : on essaie de survivre dans un terrarium en se rappelant des poèmes,13:30 : on écoute Moana revivre un dialogue de « The Thing », le terrible film de John Carpenter,18:55 : on illustre un fait divers formidable sur la plus grande courgette du monde,25:15 : on écoute le coup de cœur de Moana.

Le coup de cœur de Moana est pour « Sharp Objects », une mini-série créee par Marti Noxon (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2649356/ ). Prenez bien soin de vous et à la semaine prochaine !

Hey there, we haven't seen you in a while! Our fault for running off to take over our father's dog food company. Oh? You want to show us something in our office? You sure look pretty serious. Well, hopefully it's to talk about Season 3 Episode 11 of Mad Men, titled "The Gypsy and the Hobo." We can explain. Just wait in the car, we'll be right back. Promise. In case this is your first time digging into Mad Men Men, our humble little baby podcast recaps Mad Men from the perspective of someone who hasn't really watched the show, someone who went through it once a long time ago, and a superfan who watches excessively it instead of having a functional social life.  Matthew Weiner created Mad Men, which aired on AMC from 2007 to 2015. Jennifer Getzinger directed this episode, “The Gypsy and the Hobo,” and Marti Noxon & Cathryn Humphris and Matthew Weiner wrote the script. The show stars Jon Hamm, January Jones, Elisabeth Moss, Vincent Kartheiser, Christina Hendricks, John Slattery, Robert Morse, and many more. The opening instrumental theme heard at the beginning of this podcast is “A Beautiful Mine” by RJD2. Podcast illustration is by Jon Negroni. Our podcast hosts include Jon Negroni (Film Editor of InBetweenDrafts), Will Ashton (cohost of the Cinemaholics podcast), and Michael Overhulse (The Original “Negroupie” and inventor of dogs interrupting podcast conversations).See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

For the podcast's first EVER movie review, we pick apart To the Bone, the 2017 drama starring Lily Collins and directed by Marti Noxon. Topics include Lifetime stereotypes, the lack of diversity in eating disorder treatment, which scenes triggered us the most, the Keanu Reeves of it all, and what conversations we should be having when it comes to anorexia in the media. Lauren has a hot take about peyote and we compare our real-life treatment experiences with escapades from the film.
