Survival of the Thickest is Back! Michelle Buteau & Peppermint on Love, Representation & Surprise Weddings

Michelle Buteau and Peppermint join us this week to talk about Survival of the Thickest Season 2 — a show filled with queer joy, chosen family, body positivity, and… a surprise wedding!

Michelle is a comedian, writer, and star of the series. She shares how her essays became a Netflix series and why every detail, from the fashion to the background actors, is intentional. Peppermint is a performer, activist, and trailblazer in trans visibility. And she opens up about bringing authenticity to her character and the power of trans representation onscreen.

Plus: the love language of letting someone else carry your dresser.

Survival of the Thickest season 2 is now streaming on Netflix!
