Have you ever looked into a mirror and felt like the person staring back at you is chunky? roly-poly? bloated? tubby? Iconoclastic filmmaker, podcaster, and noted curmudgeon Alan Zweig can relate.

Alan has made a career putting himself out there and talking to people about the things that occupy our minds, but we find hardest to talk about - insecurity, obsession, loneliness. He has been unflinchingly honest about all of the things that challenge him - all of the things that is except for the one thing that he thinks about most - his weight.

Every episode, Alan invites you to join him for sometimes sad, often hilarious, always very human conversations with friends, special guests, and the occasional expert about weight, health, body image, self esteem and what it’s like to live being or feeling fat.

We want to hear from you. Share your story, your thoughts on tubbiness, or let us know what you thought about this episode. Send us an email or leave us a voicemail. We might even feature you on an upcoming show.
