Alan has another podcast and it's The Worst

It Was You, Me, and The Weight: A Conversation with Alan's Ex

What happens to a marriage when one partner is obsessed with their weight — and the other isn’t? Alan’s ex-wife Julie is worried about him. He thinks that making Tubby is allowing him to confront and come to terms with his fatness. She disagrees and thinks that the podcast is intensifying his fixation with his weight and making him miserable. In the season one finale of Tubby, Alan sits down with his ex for an intimate, unfiltered conversation about body image, fatness, and the quiet ways weight obsession can shape a relationship. Over coffee, they revisit a marriage lived without mirrors, a honeymoon nearly derailed by body anxiety, the unexpected reason hugging became complicated, and the painful question: did Alan’s obsession with his body help end their marriage?

The Mortality Issue with David Page

What do you do when you love food but if you keep eating the way you've been eating, you're going to die? David Page, the creator of Diners, Drive-Ins & Dives and host of Culinary Characters Unlocked [https://culinarycharactersunlocked.com/] joins Alan to talk about compulsive eating, how society treats fat people like assholes, and feeling guilty about your calorie count while trying to enjoy a world class meal. They ask whether or not Ozempic takes away the desire to eat emotionally and if the pleasure you get from food can be more rewarding than the satisfaction you get from losing weight.

Alan's powerful new film "Love, Harold" is now streaming

Alan wishes that he could tell people his latest film "Love, Harold" is about something happy - but it's not. As with much of his work, including Tubby, the film deals openly and honestly with something many experience but rarely talk about. When an old friend takes his own life, Alan seeks out others grappling with the suicide of a loved one. As hard as it can be to speak of such an unfathomable loss, 23 friends and acquaintances feel compelled to tell their stories. Alan engages with them as only he can—reflecting with disarming candour on the grief and resilience of those left standing. The film is a profound gesture of cinematic empathy from one of the most distinctive filmmakers. Love, Harold is now available to stream for free in Canada on NFB.ca [https://www.nfb.ca/film/love-harold/] and the NFB Films App. Internationally, you an buy or rent on Prime Video [https://www.primevideo.com/detail/Love-Harold/0NSJLRRYVJI62GCH459V3CM1LZ] or Apple TV [https://tv.apple.com/us/movie/love-harold/umc.cmc.2oajjcfwwr0hwtghjahd9h7zm] (US, UK, Australia, Belgium, France, New Zealand). ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

Alan has another podcast and it's The Worst

Just because Tubby is between seasons, doesn't mean you're going to have to live without your regular dose of Alan. He has another podcast to tide you over while you wait for season two and it's the worst. Most interview shows serve canned anecdotes about triumphs, and that gets tiresome. The Worst Podcast knows it is more revealing (and satisfying) to hear about people’s failures than successes. Alan invites top comedians, pop stars, influencers, and other cultural icons to share their worst things, and hopefully find some redemption in the telling. If you like Alan’s signature grumpiness and honesty, you’re going to get a large dose of that. Here’s a taste. In this episode: Whose Line Is It Anyway star Colin Mochrie talks about why he should be able to run over pedestrians, putting up with strangers’ bad jokes, and the most humiliating job he ever had. Alan considers the business practices of hitmen. Subscribe to The Worst Podcast [https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-worst-podcast/id1579997111] wherever you listen. Tubby will return in a few months. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy [https://acast.com/privacy] for more information.

The Yo-Yo People with artist Casey McGlynn

Alan met artist Casey McGlynn when he interviewed him for his latest film "Love, Harold [https://www.nfb.ca/film/love-harold/]". The two discuss how Casey bullied his way to self acceptance, the moment Alan decided to make a change, having private confidence while being insecure in public, feeling like Tom Cruise when you lose 50 pounds, and how fat people are invisible to the world.  We want to keep making the show for you, but we can't do it without your help.
