Living, Wanting, Becoming (w/bishoppeterdench)
Season 6

This week, we sit down with an archbishop and fellow gainer to explore the intersections of faith, fatness, desire and living with cancer. We discuss what gaining means when you're already a larger man, the difference between accepting your body and being satisfied with it, and how our relationship with desire can change when our future becomes uncertain. Our conversation also explores the complexities of being queer and a person of faith, the expectations placed on people facing their own mortality, and whether it's possible to grieve the things we may never experience while still being deeply in love with the life and body we have. Above all, we reflect on what it means to keep wanting, growing and living as fully as possible, even when time is limited.

Who are we? We’re James and Tim; two gainers exploring gaining, feedism, plus-size life, and everything plus-size. New episodes drop every Tuesday, so make sure to subscribe.
