#210 White Knuckling Body Positivity

from Two Stand-Up Gals · host Erica Spera and Teresa DeGaetano

E & T are back this week talking about Amy Schumer deleting all the old photos of herself due to her recent weight loss, the pressure of how everyone in Hollywood appears to be shrinking, white knuckling body positivity, our experiences with brutal casting directors, and the mental toll of constantly looking at videos and photos of yourself on social media. The gals also discuss how comedy has changed to quantity over quality, the challenge of creating content constantly, and how everyone is now copying each other instead of trying to be original. Plus a Golden Bachelor Finale recap and Patreon Preview at the end of the episode.
