Fat Girl Book Club
85 episodes - English - Latest episode: 12 months ago - ★★★★★ - 14 ratingsYou know that bookclub you belong to? The one where the wine flows freely, the laughter is loud and the books are extremely interesting. That is this podcast, in your ears.
My name is Jennifer Radke and I am your host and a body image coach. I get my guests to read a book in the Fat Acceptance/Body Positive/Health at Every Size space and I talk to them about it.
Throughout these conversations I get them to tell their stories, we go off on tangents and we give you a great idea of the main concepts of the books we are discussing.
This is not the author talking about the book they wrote! This is people who are boudoir photographers, influencers, activists and other coaches, talking about life changing books.

After almost three years, a plethora of guests and experiences, and tons of books, we are at the end. Well, not the end end, just the end for now.

Fat-Talk Nation by Susan Greenhalgh with Amanda Levitt
September 01, 2022 07:00 - 1 hour - 75.9 MBTRIGGER WARNING: Use of the O-words All good things must come to an end my friends. This podcast has saved me in a multitude of ways. The books I've read for the show, the people I've met have changed my life. I am a different, a better person because I did this show.

Fat on Film by Barbara Plotz with Haz Cady
August 18, 2022 07:00 - 1 hour - 73.5 MBI've had a lot of chats on this podcast with people who've become friends after the show but rarely do I get to chat to a friend I had before getting them on the show (see my chat with Chavonne about Fierce Fattie or with Pascale about The Fat Lady Sings to see a couple I have done), but this episode is with a friend. I met Haz Cady when my podcast was very new and we've had some great chats ever since (almost three years worth of chatting about books!). This episode is basically an opport...
Big Girl by Kelsey Miller with Chelsea Levy
August 04, 2022 07:00 - 1 hour - 62.2 MBI had Big Girl by Kelsey Miller on my TBR pile for a really long time. I even sent out a note a few years (yes YEARS!) ago on social media looking for someone to read it with me, but I didn't get any takers so when Chelsea Levy mentioned this book as being a really important part of her journey to body liberation during an IG live a few months ago, I had to invite her on to discuss it with me and boy am I glad I did! This book is so good. I don't think there is a better memoir that covers...
Fat Girls in Black Bodies by Joy Arlene Renee Cox with Angel Austin
July 21, 2022 07:00 - 1 hour - 61.1 MBI don't think I knew when Angel Austin of Sacred Space for Black Bodies asked to read Fat Girls in Black Bodies by Dr Joy Cox that it would be such a perfect match, but Angel and this book go hand-in-hand. A big theme of this book is building community and Angel has incredible community building projects on the go, including mutual aid resources, a fat resource directory and sacred space, which is a vision of such proportions that you will have to listen to Angel's own words to understand h...
Gendered Bodies and Public Scrutiny by Victoria Kannen with Layla Cameron
July 07, 2022 07:00 - 1 hour - 75.3 MBThis is the second of two episodes on Gendered Bodies and Public Scrutiny by Victoria Kannen. This time though I chatted with Layla Cameron, a fat activist based close to my hometown in Vancouver, BC, Canada. You definitely do not have to listen to the first episode to get something out of this conversation but the first conversation provides a framework of the book and of this discussion. We cover a lot of ground including: Layla's journey to becoming a fat activist Changes Layla has s...
Gendered Bodies and Public Scrutiny by Victoria Kannen with Victoria Kannen

In this discussion Victoria and I set up the framework of how our body stories are constructed. Here are some of the highlights of our discussion: Who is Victoria Kannen and what i...
Fat Girl Walking by Brittany Gibbons with Katie Winnen
June 09, 2022 07:00 - 1 hour - 71 MBI am so excited for you to listen to this week's episode. I stumbled across Katie Winnen's podcast by chance and heard a genuine joyfulness in her voice. I invited her on my pod and was so happy to find out that she is authentically joyful. I mean, I really wish I lived closer to her because I have a feeling I would be trying to hang out on patios constantly with this woman. She is just real and authentic. It was an absolute pleasure getting to know her. Here are some of the highlights...
Fierce Fattie by Vinny Welsby with Chavonne McClay
May 26, 2022 07:00 - 1 hour - 56.5 MBTRIGGER WARNINGS: Abuse, O-word, biohacking and my disordered body building behaviours, derogatory use of the word, "fat" This week on the podcast I have a chat with my friend Chavonne about Vinny Welsby's book, Fierce Fattie. I did something I rarely do and just had a chat with my friend, no discussion questions, no intense preparation, just a good old-fashion chin wag! We laughed, we got reflective and hopefully we provided you with things to think about. In this conversation I chat ...

The Fat Lady Sings by Cheryl Fuller with Cheryl Fuller and Pascale Jenkins
April 14, 2022 07:00 - 1 hour - 68.3 MBI don't know why the thought never occurred to me. But it didn't. If finding a doctor is hard because of the way diet culture has made us all fatphobes, why did I think finding a therapist would be any different? But I never thought about it like that, until a friend told me about The Fat Lady Sings by Cheryl Fuller, which explores being a therapist in a larger body and finding a therapist in a larger body. It got me thinking and the concepts of the book lingered. So obviously I ask...
[REPOST] - Fat Activism by Charlotte Cooper with Cat Pausé
March 31, 2022 07:00 - 58 minutes - 53.6 MBThis week I am re-releasing this episode with Cat Pausé. I didn't know her well, in fact we only met twice. I was on her podcast Friend of Marilyn and she was on mine. But her work was brilliant and I was so honoured to have her on the show. She recently, vey suddenly passed away. I wanted to do something to show how amazing she was and how much of an impact she has had on me. The fact she came onto my growing podcast and gave her limited time to a fledging fat liberationist is a true t...
13 Ways of Looking at a Fat Girl by Mona Awad with Serena Nangia
March 17, 2022 07:00 - 1 hour - 78.3 MBIn this conversation with Serena Nangia we get vulnerable. I think part of the reason for that was this book, 13 Ways of Looking at a Fat Girl by Mona Awad, was personal and triggering. Having said that, we both had really different perspectives because Serena never dieted and grew up in a household with someone who struggled with an eating disorder whereas, I had an eating disorder and spent a few years in a straight sized body. Get ready for a powerful conversation where we cover: Sere...
Body of Truth by Harriet Brown with Dr. Lisa Folden
March 03, 2022 08:00 - 1 hour - 55.7 MBI love book people. If you talk the language of books, you and me, we'll get along and Dr. Lisa, she talked the language of books. Her story into body liberation began with a book that was also my starting point and in this discussion we jump into Harriet Brown's Body of Truth. We cover a lot of ground, including: Lisa's body liberation journey How she got away from using diet culture in her physiotherapy practice Why Lisa picked this book Harriet Brown's journey with her daughters an...

Into the Drowning Deep by Mira Grant with Destiny Dimattei
February 03, 2022 08:00 - 1 hour - 58.4 MBI have something really different for you this week. I know that recently we've had an episode that strayed off the path of body acceptance books but this is way, way off the path (we can barely see the path!). This week I'm discussing a fictional book called Into the Drowning Deep by Mira Grant with a second time podcast guest, Destiny Dimattei. I truly believe in the value of taking our body liberation lens and applying it to other books we read. It insures integrity in our values and ...
Don't Let it Get You Down by Savala Nolan with Chavonne McClay
January 20, 2022 08:00 - 1 hour - 67.4 MBEvery year I pick my favourite books of the year in November. I know I'm early into this year but I just know this book, Don't Let it Get You Down by Savala Nolan, is going to be on my list at the end of the year. Three reasons why this book is so incredibly magnificent: Savala Nolan's story is powerful. She is a mixed race woman who dives deep into her own intersections and how they have impacted her journey. Structurally this book is amazing. Each essay takes the reader through Saval...

January 06, 2022 08:00 - 1 hour - 73.1 MBTRIGGER WARNING: This episode is a really heavy discussion about discrimination and racism. Please take your self-care into account and skip this episode if necessary. I promise I won't be offended. If you've been a long time listener you know I don't have authors on the show (or at least it is really rare), but I've made a big exception in this case because of the topic matter. Dalia Kinsey's book is written specifically for the QTBIPOC community. It discusses the marginalization and...

The Hundred Year Diet by Susan Yager with Emily Lubin
December 09, 2021 08:00 - 1 hour - 72 MBI have never thrown out my questions when talking to a guest before, but I just had so much fun talking to Emily Lubin about The Hundred Year Diet by Susan Yager that I lost track of time and didn't ask anything I'd planned to! This book also provided us with lots to discuss. The 100 Year Diet was really problematic and triggering, so we were able to dive deep into some pretty nuanced discussion. Here are some of the things we talked about: Emily's anti-diet journey Dieting and children...

The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho with Adrienne Bennett
November 25, 2021 08:00 - 1 hour - 62.4 MBIf you head over to Adrienne Bennett's IG account, you will see why I had to have this woman on the show. I'm not one for woo woo, but this woman shines. She is highly radiant and all I wanted is for some of that to rub off on me. When I reached out to her though, she said she doesn't read too much in the body acceptance space, which is interesting because her account is all about connection to the body. I asked what she does read and she pointed me to this book. I cannot wait for you t...

Cultish by Amanda Montell with Amanda Scriver
October 28, 2021 07:00 - 1 hour - 65.4 MBThe guest on this week's show is a repeat guest. I did a wonderful roundtable chat with a bunch of the authors from Big: stories about life in plus-sized bodies and Amanda was one of them. I started listening to her podcast and she had the author of Cultish: the language of fanaticism on her show and it just felt so connected to diet culture, so of course I had to have it on the show. During this conversation, Amanda and I talked about: Are audio books real books? Amanda's body accepta...
