This is a warning to my Gaudzillas, THIS EPISODE CONTAINS SPOILERS! If you haven't seen Shrill, staring the wonderful Aidy Bryant, then get the hell off your phone and go watch it. Kat and Jen are all in their feelings over this show. We discuss our top cry moments, criticisms, where we'd like the show to go, and of course THE FASHION. Jenny also updates us on her love life, or lack there of, and a bit of drama over the weekend. Relax into this episode!

Do we have a treat for you, Gaudzillas! Today, Jenny and Kat have the bubbly, funny, warm, and award winning plus size porn star Karla Lane! Living her most fabulous Gaudy life as a pioneer in plus size, BBW porn, Karla talks to us about the biz and so much more! We discuss different types of sex toys, real dolls (when will they make a BBW?), balls (duh), what we do to relax, being polly and being badass at it, body positivity in porn, narrative film in porn (watch her film "The Weight of Infidelity) and all the things in between. This is a must listen episode!

Gaudzillas, did we ever tell you how sexy you are?
This episode is all about being sexy. How do you feel sexy? What is sexy? Jen and Kat did somethings that made them feel sexy for sure. Kat took a pole dancing class from S Factor and Jenny got a bra fitting from Elomi. This podcast explores how you can feel sexy without mirrors, what to expect at a pole dancing class, how getting the right bra can make you feel amazing, and how sexiness has changed over time. We also mention Hannah Gadsby, Ros the Diva, and how Jenny loves to make her exes feel bad.

Long overdue, this episode handles some SELF CARE, diet talk, and Kat's adventures in styling. Both Jenny and Kat caught the sick, hit the road, and have been feeling their feelings (it's Gaudy!). Kat got to dress friend of the cast Dulce Sloan for her Comedy Central Half Hour and Jenny for her most recent Conan (now on youtube). Jenny went and saw Hello Dolly and looked up the history of diets! Did you know America goes through a spiritual awakening every 90 years or so and with that come a bunch of diet garbage?! Well, it does!
AND THEY'RE CRAZY
Keto was made for epileptic kids!
Swamps make you fat!
Liquid diets will KILL YOU!
People eat TAPEWORMS.
DON'T PUT MEAT IN YOUR COFFEE!

Here it is! This HIGHLY ANTICIPATED sequel to our Gaudy show on ethical fashion gets deep in the cuts about the brands that suck and the ones that are rocking our little conscious, gaudy hearts.

What's that smell? Oh, it's all the pollution from the #2 polluter on the planet -- the fashion industry! Peeeeyuuu. Jenny and Kat dig into talk about ethical fashion, with a good dose of post-Evangelical guilt and a lovely endorsement for New York's dedication to Italian greatness, Rome, NY. What's in: ADIDAS, Alice Alexander, Poppy Row, Urtumuch, Premme, Girlfriend Collective, YALA Designs. What's out: Fast fashion like Fashion Nova, Forever21, Zara, H&M, Ross, TJ Maxx, Marshall's, and Nordstrom & Nordstrom Rack, Macy's, and yes, even all of those shady brands that advertise designer knockoffs for like twelve bucks on Facebook (yes, even SHEIN). Stay tuned for part II!

Gaudy Gaudzillas, the new year is starting off right! First off, Jenny had her birthday and it was phenomenal. But we don't talk about that here. We talk about some historical fashion that might kill you, connections to shame, the lonely artists lifestyle, and Jenny has THE BIGGEST JOURNALS. Also, our Gaudy Icon of the week is Sara Benincasa!

Gaudzillas, hope you had a fabulous holiday season - BUT IT'S NOT OVER. The new year is coming up and we talk resolutions (read more books, joyful movement, and setting goals), but ALSO crazy weight watcher diet foods from the 1970s. Seriously, you have to check these out. Hot lettuce, mousse fish, and so much more. Listen to the podcast and then go see the photos at Candyboots.com.
Also, our Gaudy person of the week is Amy Sedaris! We all know Gerry from Strangers With Candy was Gaudy Positive and Amy's amazing love of crafting make her the perfect candidate.
Start the new year off right with this perfectly yummy episode of Gaudy Positive!
