GBA 335 Sofie Hagen

In GBA 335 we get better acquainted with Sofie Hagen. She talks about how her politics and language have evolved, fat liberation and feminism, her interest in vulnerability, the relationship between comedy and audiences, and so much more. We also compare notes on turning conversations into podcasts, making art and activism for previous versions of yourself and we swap therapy stories.

Content note: we touch on the topics of trauma, #MeToo, rape culture, fatphobia and structural oppression.
