Rat Girls
In Rat Girls, a comedy podcast, host Abigail Jensen discusses the good, the bad, and the ugly of all things girlhood. This Podcast is for all the girlies scurrying through life who don’t have it all together but know it’s ok to not be perfect. Because perfect is boring, being feral is way more fun. Each week, Abigail covers a different topic, sometimes joined by guests, and dives into issues facing women every day. Nothing is off-limits. When the impossible expectations of being a girl seem too much, Abigail is here to navigate it with you and encourage you to embrace your inner rat.

Hi all! With skinny culture coming back in a scary way, I wanted to re-release this episode to show how Gracie and I combat toxic diet culture and the pressure to be small.
(this was originally posted in march 2024 so our pop culture references are from then!)
This week, we got real while chatting about our history with body dysmorphia and body image. We dive into what made us self-conscious in the first place (diet culture and 2000s media- ugh) and then take you through our journey to healing their relationship with their body. If you've ever felt body-conscious, this episode is for you.
We also nibble on Intuitive Eating, "Where is Kate Middleton?!", Squid Games, Girls, Olivia Rodrigo, Abortion Rights, and more.
