Today, we are excited to share one of our favorite podcasts. Weight For It unpacks the nuanced thoughts of fat folks, and of all folks who think about their weight all the time. Through narrative storytelling and some memoirs, host Ronald Young Jr. hopes to have the conversations that we tend to avoid when it comes to our bodies.
In this Season 2 premiere episode host Ronald Young Jr grapples with the impending loss of his mother while still thinking about his weight.
Special thanks to my sister Marilyn Denise Young, my Father Ronald Young Sr. our dear friend Carolyn Perry, and of course to my mother, the late and always great forever loved Peggy Lee Young
