This episode, we look at the moment that Oprah Winfrey ran the Marine Corps Marathon — and all that it represented about her relationship with fitness, dieting, and health. Throughout the years, from the infamous “wagon of fat” to her very public experiments with different diets, Oprah’s personal approach to fitness has reflected the way our larger culture thinks about weight and health.

Our guest for this episode is Natalia Petrzela of The New School, author of FIT NATION and host of the podcasts WELCOME TO YOUR FANTASY and PAST PRESENT. Check out all her amazing work on her website!

You Get A Podcast is hosted and executive produced by Kellie Carter Jackson, with co-host Leah Wright Rigueur.
