<p>Happy Pride Fupas!! This episode, your fav fat queers start off by discussing our favorite noodles, with the amount of confusion, disagreement and hilarity you all have come to know and love. We move on to discuss the reason for the season: is there room for fat liberation at gay pride? We talk about the complexities and, more often than not, failures of pride celebrations to welcome ALL of all of us.<span class="Apple-converted-space">&nbsp;</span> Take a seat, a beat, a cookie, and listen on all your favorite podcast streaming platforms. And above all: don’t forget deodorant for your inner thighs this summer!!<span class= "Apple-converted-space">&nbsp;</span></p> <p>(P.S. There are some audio hiccups that we hope you can excuse. Like queerness, we too are messy.)<span class= "Apple-converted-space">&nbsp;</span></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Media and topics mentioned:</p> <p><a href= "https://www.umasspress.com/9781558494299/revolting-bodies/">Revolting Bodies?
