Welcome to Indulgence Gospel After Dark!
It’s time for your November Extra Butter episode. This month, we’re doing a listener question (on post-divorce bodies!) and a segment if It’s Not NOT a Diet on 75 Hard (or Hard 75, as Virginia likes to call it).
To listen to the full episode and read the full transcript, you’ll need to join Extra Butter, our premium subscription tier. It costs $120 per year (which works out to just ten bucks per month but yes, we’re still working on how you can pay monthly!), and gets you monthly podcast episodes and live threads.
These episodes tend to be a little more personal. They’re also where we’re working out ideas, and having conversations that are definitely worth having—but maybe aren’t quite ready for primetime. (Last month we dug into the anti-diet to alt-right pipeline.) And biased, but, we think they’re very fun.
And Extra Butter is the hands down best way to support this work. This subscription tier is why we’re able to pay Corinne and Tommy for their invaluable contributions, why we’re able to offer unlimited comp subscriptions (just email! no questions asked!, and why we’re able to pay podcast guests a small honorarium to thank them for their time and labor. And Extra Butter ensures that the Burnt Toast community can always stay an ad- and sponsor-free space—which is crucial for body liberation journalism.

Okay Virginia, our listener question today is for you.
How have your thoughts and feelings about your body changed since you got separated?
Virginia
Oh, man. This is a GOOD question.
