S2E3 - Cover Image: White background/border with guest photo at the center. KFAI logo appears in the top left. Matter of Fat logo appears at the center over the bottom of the guest photo. Under the logo the name “Nancy Alyon” appears over a periwinkle background. Pictured is Nancy standing outside of her food truck in front of the order window. She’s wearing her “Que Tal” t-shirt with a cap backwards.

show notes:

You made it to the third episode for season two of Matter of Fat: a body positive podcast with Midwest sensibilities! Co-hosts Cat Polivoda and Saraya Boghani highlight community voices with a focus on body size, body positivity, & fat liberation.

The Fat Dish is robust, y’all! First, the summer Big Fat Super Swap is June 15th. Also on June 15th is the TC Juneteenth event. The inaugural Podcast Du Nord conference will be June 22nd. Twin Cities Pride will also be the weekend of the 22nd. Cake’s Fat Splash pool party sold out but check out Allgo to see where other events will be held around the US.

Saraya shared her adventures in lawn bowling and spending more time with Cat by catching the movie Booksmart, being interviewed by the Star Tribune, and attending a New Leaders Council - Twin Cities fundraising and celebration event. Cat was part of the NLC Louisiana chapter back in the day and is excited to support the TC chapter. Cat is a fan of Cardio Bay, not a fan of plantar fasciitis, and is gearing up for a summer road trip extravaganza!

C+S were so excited to interview Nancy Alayon - a badass business owner of the Salvadorian food truck Que Tal Street Eats. Nancy talks about her story as a matter of fat and the many identities that interact in that story. She also encourages everyone to reconsider your perspectives on emotional eating and how she is shaping the culture of the Twin Cities through recipes passed down from generation to generation and her own culinary twists.

Dirt and Discourse (D+D if ya nasty) includes information from GLSEN, Fran Tirado, and a suggestion to center queer voices and follow the money during PRIDE and other seasons.
