  Speaker 1: you get at McDonald's And was this a pregnant woman craving?
• 0:24
  Speaker 3: Yes, it was a pregnant woman craving that I put
• 0:26
  Speaker 3: off for about a week and a half and I
• 0:30
  Speaker 3: ended up getting a McChicken and a double cheeseburger and fries.
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: Is this the new McChicken? No, there's a new chicken.
• 0:39
  Speaker 3: It's called that's called the mc crispy.
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: I'm not playing that game. I'm going to old school.
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: There you go.
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: I'm not playing that game. I almost got the mccrispy
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: the other day because it looked pretty good. But it
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: did look good, but no, I wanted that game. I
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: wanted the old school McChicken for way too long.
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, do you have a Chick fil A within driving distance?
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: I do you do?
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: But you went with the McDonald's instead.
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: Oh it cares nothing. There is a flat it's like
• 1:10
  Speaker 3: kind of like you know, Subway has that certain taste
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: and smell. McDonald's has the same thing.
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: You just can't once you Yeah, did you have anything
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: with it? Do you have fries or anything? I did.
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: I got a medium fry and clearly there's nothing like
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: McDonald's fries. Yeah, you get a mcfluury.
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: I did not. I am not a child.
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: Well said, that's a damn good dessert, though, Oh boy.
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: I took the kids to McDonald's and I wondered, I thought,
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: are we going to regret this? And we all enjoyed it.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: It was delicious. It's not good for you, but it was.
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: It was freaking good, so good. I had a quarter
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: pounder with cheese no onions, which is one of my
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: go tos with fries, and it was it was just good.
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: It was expensive, but it was good. Speaking of eating
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: like that, I wondered when this might happen. You got
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: a former body positive influencer who's come out and said
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: these people are radicals, and I was brainwalking. Very big woman,
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: h five foot tall, four hundred pounds, Holy hell, pretty big,
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: but very attractive and very pretty face. You know, just
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: do you have her name? What is her name? Here?
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: I do have her name Gabriella Lescano, okay, and she
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: became a champion of the body positivity movement, on the
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: cover of all kinds of magazines about loving yourself at
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: any size and all that sort of stuff. And then
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: as she got a little bit older, because she became
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: famous when she's quite young, but she got a tiny
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: bit older, and she said, some days I would look
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: at photos and not even recognize myself and my height
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: and weight, and I became really uncomfortable with my weight.
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: I just I didn't feel good. It was very hard
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: to like, I couldn't ride rides at the amusement park,
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: and just all these different things she didn't like about
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: being that size. And then when she starts to talk
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: about wanting to lose weight, they got really hostile toward her,
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: about being you know, fat, shaming people and you're a
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: traitor to us and all this diff and she realized
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: that it was a bit of a racket as opposed
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: to your really work looking out for what's best for people.
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: She bought into the idea that you know, you're trying to,
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: you know, make people like me who are big feel
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: good about themselves. But no, they're hostile toward the idea
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: of losing weight and eating healthy, she realized, and so
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: now she has turned on them.
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: One thing I've noticed about these body positivity pages and
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: it was when I was a big girl. They were
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: suggested to me on Instagram and TikTok. These pages would
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: just end up in my for you and like you said,
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: it was a way to make big girls feel better
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: about themselves. But then it really turns you away from any.
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: Push to get healthy.
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: So and your why when you look at the they
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: argue about how healthy they are, They argue about how
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: you know, working out is not even what it's you
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: know it's about I've been working out for years and
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: it did nothing, and it gives you every reason to not.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: Which is the last thing I need to hear. Yeah.
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like every drunk wants everybody else to have
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: another drink, too, right, and every stoner wants everybody to
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: get high, and just because you know that's true, better
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: about yourself.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: But there wasn't a giant nationwide be a drunk movement
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: in which you you talked about how great it is
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: to be a drunk and shamed anybody who had anything
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: criticals to say about it, because that'd be crazy. Well right, yeah,
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: but they did that for being, you know, obese at
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: a really unhealthy level, to be unkind, there's no excuse
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: for that ever, if somebody's overweight.
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: But that's not what we're talking about, and that's the
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: and that's what they always put up. They attack the
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: straw man of quote unquote fat shaming. No, you seem
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: like a good person. I care about you. I want
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: you to not die prematurely. That's not shaming.
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: Leskana said that she eventually saw the body positivity community
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: become hostile toward weight loss and exercise like you were saying, Katie,
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: even for health purposes, which led her to turning on
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: the movement. Then she really realized what they were like.
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: But as the body positivity community became more radical, I
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: was scared to say the wrong thing, so I stayed silent.
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: Then a friend of mine died and I decided to
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: speak out. But everybody came after me, trying to make
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: me feel guilty for saying anything and being fatphobic and
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: blah blah blah. Who's the big singer who Lizzo? She
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: has talked about that since she lost all her weight,
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: that a lot of people turned on her when she
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: lost weight and she's she says, I'm healthier now. This
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: was clearly a good idea, but a lot of people
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: are very critical of me. That's an interesting thing.
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, It's like I was saying, everybody wants feel better
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: about themselves, and that's why. You know, the flip side
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: of that is the proverb or whatever it is about
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: the metaphor about crabs pulling the other crabs back down
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: into the bucket if they try to climb out. It's
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: a terrible malady, it might be. It's one of the
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: two candidates for the most serious problems with poor inner
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: city culture is the kids shaming the other kids for
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: learning or acting white or whatever the epithet might be.
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: It's terrible.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: I was around that. I was around that a lot
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: in rural area, grown men in their forties who did
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: really mundane labor for low wages, who really had a
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: bad attitude about any Like when they found out I
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: was going to go to college as a high school kid,
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: just you know, really trashed that whole idea, like you're
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: being traitor to your class or something.
• 7:00
  Speaker 3: God, that's such a weird mentality to trash that rather
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: than merely motivated.
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: Clearly human nature though. I mean, yeah, people do it.
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: It's it's bad, it's really awful. You got to watch
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: out for it. M I thought that's really interesting. I mean,
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: you're forty years old and you're slinging hay bales for
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: five dollars an hour. But somebody else who tries to
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: do end up with something maybe better, easier than this
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: is crab buckets. Yeah, exactly, bucket of crabs. Oh so good.
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: I'm hungry. I'm trying to go get it pregnant, lady.
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: I don't have trouble with the crabs. You can talk
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: about too much work. I don't want to put that
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: much with crabs. Very good, that's what I was thinking.
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: That needs to be the title of the podcast. That
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: needs to be a drop Hanson.
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I should put that on my bumble page, right
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: on the profile
