We're at the intersection of eating disorder recovery, confidence coaching and making men lose their jobs today on My Body, My Jokes! Denver based inclusive stylist and confidence coach Julia Parzyck joins the pod to discuss her journey from online fitness guru to eating disorder recovery coach and beyond.

Julia (aka fitfatandallthat on Instagram) has built her career over the course of 10 years, and reins as the undefeated queen of clap backs. In her own words, "Fat jokes just don't hit anymore." We dive deeper into fatphobia and the world of body acceptance online while laughing our yasses off (can you believe Chat GPT suggested that line).

We had a little mishap with our cameras so only the first 25 minutes of footage were rendered - but don't worry, you can still enjoy this episode as audio, and we'll definitely have Julia back on the pod in the future.

"Something strange is going on with Gen Z" - and no, it's not their questionable interest in the inflated pants known as barrel jeans.

Gen Z is getting plastic surgery in record numbers according an article published on Unherd.com, which Morgan reviews and dissects in this episode of My Body, My Jokes.

After giving a little recovery update, she dives into the article written by Kristina Murkett, and discusses her disagreements with her won Gen Z producer, Anissa.

Morgan also unveils the very first joke she ever wrote - and its definitely as bad as you think it is.

Being a dancer, entertainer and/or performer is hard enough in this world - but being a woman on top of it? Girl. You're in for a wild ride.

Luckily this week we're joined by the proud female-forward owner of Denver's Hard Candy Dance Studio - Marquette Carrington! As a business owner, dancer, instructor and overall inspirational girls girl, Marquette stops by to chat all things dance, internalized misgoyny, and body image healing. She also schools us on the history of twerking, as well as shares her philosophy of honoring our bodies through movement.

Morgan and Marquette also touch on their histories of disordered eating brought on by dance, as well as the double standard many burlesque and pole dancers face online.

What can we say about this one. Morgan reflects back on the online reaction to announcing her podcast, and the never ending shit storm of men sharing their irrelevant opinions about her body.

She also learns of some new(ish) online drama surroundign two internet stars thanks to producer and Gen Z correspondent, Anissa.

Morgan's "Thinspiration" journal also makes a comeback in this episode - giving us an inside look at the inner dialogue of a teenager stuck in the heroin chic era of 2012.

One of Denver's favorite comedians, Hannah Jones, joins Morgan this week to discuss the intricacies of body image on stage, as well as men's need to criticize anyone and everyone on the internet.

Remember when there was a draft? Yea. Now all those potential soldiers are chugging Mountain Dew in their mom's basement, commenting on internet videos just to feel seen. But enough about those clowns - get down and dirty with Hannah and Morgan on this week's episode of My Body, My Jokes!

Have you ever been asked to "send n00ds" or "show bobs"?

Unfortunately, Morgan has. Several times. That's why she created a series called What's In My DM's where she traverses the swamp of her message requests, and reads them for your entertainment. Lucky for you, the series has now become a staple of My Body, My Jokes! and in this episode, we hear from many a creep-o.

Episode 3 also features a peek into Morgan's childhood through her "Thinspiration" journal (gross, right?) and how she's rewriting her past. So sit your beautiful butt down and kiki with us!

Oof, this one is a doozy. Comedian and sex symbol Jozalyn Sharp graces us with her presence to chat ED recovery, finding herself on stage and her journey to lose 100 lbs.

She also dives into the depths of her comment section to unearth the gremlins who have the audacity to share their opinion on her appearance (it really is a universal experience for us funny gals).

Welcome to My Body, My Jokes! a podcast that tackles the absurdity of diet culture, self expression and everything in between through the lens of a comedian. In this first episode, Morgan talks candidly for the first time about her eating disorder diagnosis, her current recovery, and all the trauma dumping you'll be hearing in future episodes.

She also made the mistake of asking her Instagram followers (who are 92% male at the moment), 'What's your favorite nickname for boobs?' So she rattles off the answers that were submitted while trying to maintain her composure. Men are so creative.

Plus, News Nine posted a weirdly fear mongering visual story about instant ramen, and Morgan couldn't let it go (she mistakenly thought it was a 9News story - sorry, Kyle Clark). Get ready for all kinds of insanity every other week right here on My Body, My Jokes!
