In this episode we're looking at Red Shoes and the Seven Dwarfs, a film that made headlines in 2017 with a disastrous marketing campaign that body-shamed it's lead character.

Join us as we discuss the film (as well as our inability to remember the provincial capitals of Canada).
Content note: The topic of weight/body image comes up quite frequently in the discussion of this episode.
