The Case of Jillian Michaels v. Lizzo
In this episode, Kiki, Mohanad, and Hoja take a deep dive into fitness expert Jillian Michaels’ fatphobic past – from growing up as an overweight child, to becoming a trainer on The Biggest Loser, to her recent comments about Lizzo. They look at the legacy of the show, recap some of Hollywood’s worst fatphobic TV shows and movies (yes – that includes Shallow Hal), and analyze Jillian’s not-so-apologetic apology. Plus, Kiki talks about her experience at The Biggest Loser Hotel, and Hoja reveals which reality competition show she was once on. Please note, I’m Sorry contains mature themes and may not be appropriate for all listeners.
