127: Hot Topics--Body Shaming, Cultural Appropriation, & Abortion

from The Brain Candy Podcast

Sarah is back from Peru and ready for some hot topics. We discuss whether some Portland burrito-makers are guilty of cultural appropriation. Then we tackle the controversy about a high-schooler who is not allowed to walk at graduation because she is pregnant. We talk about the recent "body-shaming" of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Finally, we hear from a listener who thinks we should stop using words like fat, bigger, and skinny-fat, and should only use words like "curvy" to refer to larger women. Listen to more podcasts like this: https://wavepodcastnetwork.comRead this week's Newsletter: https://mailchi.mp/thebraincandypodcast/125-127Join our Candy Club, shop our merch, sign-up for our free newsletter, & more by visiting The Brain Candy Podcast website: https://www.thebraincandypodcast.comConnect with us on social media:BCP Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastSusie's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterSarah's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBCP on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodSusie on X: https://www.x.com/susie_meisterSarah on X: https://www.x.com/ImSarahRiceSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
