Selected for Bello’s 100 Outstanding Podcasts of 2020! “Transmitter Media is knocking it out of the park once again with their first original podcast, Rebel Eaters Club. I worried the show might be either too deep (and thus overly triggering) and or not deep enough (and thus frustratingly unhelpful), but I needn't have worried: after listening to the first two episodes, I can definitely recommend it. Start with episode one: "All Food is Good Food with Mia Feuer." (Galen)
In #RebelEatersClub - a Transmitter Media production - Tovar dives into the dynamics of shame, power, and self-love that surround people’s relationships with food – from eating disorders and trauma to the politics of food.
The influencer and author’s new podcast invites guests to dish on plus-size fashion, fat shaming and diet culture.
Tovar, a San Francisco Bay Area native, said society not only pressures people — mostly women but some men, too — to feel bad about their size, but it also often ignores them, especially when it comes to fashion.
“When you’re talking about the plus-size world, there has been so little access to clothing,” she said. “I think a lot of people are just in an urgent state of need.”
The New & Upcoming Podcasts To Look Forward To In 2020
"In this world, pizza is not the enemy, and we love the bodies we have right now!" More beautiful words have never been spoken. Transmitter Media's new podcast hosted by Virgie Tovar discusses diets, discrimination, and freedom from the restrictions society attempts to place on our bodies.
5 Podcasts to Listen to in March: “On the show’s debut episode, Tovar interviews sculptor Mia Feuer and the pair discuss how their first ideas around food came from close family members. It’s a conversation filled with honesty, as Tovar and Feuer explain how it each took them years to shake off the harmful notions spread by our diet culture at large.”
