Summary

The girlies are joined by literary it-girl Emmeline Clein to discuss her new book, Dead Weight, and the evergreen topic of eating disorders. They dive into the over-maligned Tumblr pro-ana communities, why eating disorder treatment is often counterintuitive to healing, how the intersection of big tech and diet culture has muddied the waters between health and sickness, and more! Digressions include why boyfriends should never go grocery shopping and how to support a friend in recovery.

This episode was produced by Julia Hava and Eliza McLamb and edited by Allison Hagan.
