For this week’s DST Thursday, Aleen is rejoined by everyone’s fav comedian and hummus connoisseur, Jared Freid. To start it off, Jared gives us a preview of his stand-up routine, where he talks about his relationship with food and body image. Aleen and Jared then share their DSTW of the week and discuss the ways they’re trying to break the “food rules” that have been ingrained in them. Next, Aleen reads the submitted DSTW win of the week, where a listener learns from her past relationships with “trigger foods”. Finally, in the Dear DST of the week, a listener asks advice on how to feel confident in a bathing suit and within their own body this summer. Jared gives his advice on this from a male’s perspective and shares why curves are actually a good thing. (One more time for the people in back: every body is a bathing suit body!)
