The program begins with a tribute to the late Rich Conaty, who hosted "The Big Broadcast" on WFUV for more than 40 years. His opening theme music is heard.

The program's topic thereafter is fatness and opposition to anti-fat bigotry. the first interview is with Rebecca Jane Weinstein, author of the books "Fat Sex" and "Fat Kids". Katherine Alyse talks about her web series "The Fat One". Ash Kohman discusses her podcast "The Fat Lip". Substantia Jones (who as Kimberly Massengill was once a WPKN programmer) tells about the creation of The Adipositivity Project, which presents photographs of nude fat bodies. Bill Fabrey tells about the founding of NAAFA in 1969 and his subsequent activities in promoting fat acceptance.
