  • Baby Fat (My Big Fat Fabulous Life - Season 4, Episode 3, Part 2 Recap)
    Jul 15 2026

    In this episode, things are getting pretty gay - and don't worry, we mean that as a compliment (since Hilary Duff taught us right) because we're going to Charlotte, NC Pride, y'all! With Babs, Mattie, and Todd in tow, Whit's all ready for a gay old time! Whit's in the hot seat because she's trying to make content that can go on the Maney, Roy and LauRen show. She's doing "on the street" interviews and trying to get as many interesting answers as possible. Little does she know, there's something far more nefarious than bears, twinks or even platinum gays lurking and waiting for you, and it comes (unfortunately) straight (literally) from Philly. So sit back, relax and just remember not to talk and to only ask three questions!

  • Baby Fat (My Big Fat Fabulous Life - Season 4, Episode 3, Part 1 Recap)
    Jul 8 2026

    This episode, we’re covering some explosive moments - and we’re not just talking about the fit Glenn Thore throws when he finds out Whitney is pregnant. Maybe it wasn’t just finding out the special news, but it was the fact that Glenn Thore had to find out from none other than COUSIN ALEXIS?!? Oh, the humanity! If you’re going to spill some tea, serve Glenn a cup before you guzzle the whole thing yourself! But there’s one catch that might make Glenn feel a bit better - it’s the fact that Whit isn’t actually pregnant and she finds that out at the doctor this episode! What a relief! But how will Whitney tell Lennie, who’s actually surprisingly excited about the whole thing? Also, as our B story, (as in BUDDY story), Buddy starts his own workout regimen with Will. But whether he’ll stick to it or get fired just like Whit was remains to be seen!

  • Immaculate Misconception (My Big Fat Fabulous Life - Season 4, Episode 2, Part 2 Recap)
    Jul 1 2026

    On today’s episode Whitney is flabbergasted. Not because she’s pregnant - nope, she’s finally in a place of acceptance about that. Whit’s breaking the news to the baby’s father, Lennie, who she “backslid” with after their breakup. When Lennie asks to see the positive pregnancy test, Whitney isn’t exactly thrilled at the implication that she could be lying. Does Lennie not believe her? And if Whit can deal with the reality of being knocked up at 370 lbs, why can’t Lennie accept the reality that he got her there? Was Whitney’s belief that Lennie would be accepting of the news and even maybe excited just an immaculate misconception?
