Episode 89: Anya Marina
The Singer/Songwriter opens up about her lifetime battles with body image, weight and food, as well as the complicated and overwhelming experience of being a part of the Twilight franchise (she wrote and performed the song "Satellite Heart" on the Twilight: New Moon soundtrack, and hosted a red carpet event). She ends the interview with a performance of her song "Miss Halfway". Paul reads a response from the Shame and Secrets survey written by a mild-mannered housewife who shares about the abuse she suffered as a child and the endless murderous fantasies that play in her mind while politely chatting at parties.
