I was not, I have not been fat my whole life, like as an adult, I got fat and gained a lot

of weight and I always had an idea of how I would dress and look as an adult, you know,

you just assume that you'll get to a place where you'll have money and you'll have options

and you'll buy stuff and you'll look good.

Ronald Young Jr. is the host of the excellent podcast, Wait For It.

It's a show about the plus sized experience.

I grew up watching a lot of television and movies and I saw black folks that just looked

good wearing the right hat, wearing the right suit, the right shirt, the right shoes, all

of that and I thought that I would get there someday.

And when I got fat, it felt like it was harder and harder to find even the most basic

of clothes, t-shirts, jeans.

It just felt hard to walk into Target, walk into Old Navy and buy what I needed.

This is the problem for me and this is why I came to you and I basically, like I think

the question for me is, like, why is this so hard?

Why is it so hard to make clothes that are inclusive of plus sized folks that are fashionable

and affordable?

I have an answer.

I found some answers, I think, too.

And I want, I don't know, I want to see your opinion.

Can we do introductions?

Yeah.

I'm Ronald Young Jr. I am the host of Weight For It.
