Tubby

By Left of Dial Media

<p><strong>Named one of Apple Podcast's and Amazon Music's BEST PODCASTS OF 2025.</strong></p><br /><p><br /></p><p>Have you ever looked in the mirror and felt uncomfortable with your body—too chunky, bloated, tubby, or just not yourself? You’re not alone.</p><br /><p><br /></p><p>Iconoclastic filmmaker, podcaster, and noted curmudgeon Alan Zweig has built a career diving into the messy parts of life—obsession, insecurity, loneliness—and speaking the truths most of us avoid. But there’s one subject he’s wrestled with silently for years: his weight.</p><br /><p><br /></p><p>Tubby takes an unflinching, funny, and deeply human look at what it means to live in a body that feels too big—or never feels good enough. Each episode, Alan talks with friends, special guests, and occasional experts about weight struggles, body image issues, health, diet culture, self-esteem, and the reality of living fat. Sometimes sad, often hilarious, and always real, it’s a podcast for anyone who wants honest conversations about what it means to feel at home (or not) in your own skin.</p><br /><p><br /></p><p>"Candid and far reaching" - Hannah J.
