Episode Description: Jessica B. Harris may have been born and raised in New York City, but she has Tennessee roots through her father and has spent much of her life split between homes in the Northeast and the South – specifically New Orleans. For more than fifty years, she has been a college professor, a writer, and a lecturer, and her many books have earned her a reputation as an authority on food of the African Diaspora, as well as a lifetime achievement award from the James Beard Foundation. A few years back, Netflix adapted her book, High on the Hog: A Culinary Journey from Africa to America , into a 4 part docuseries. And I’m very proud to say that she’s a longtime contributor to Southern Living with a regular column called The Welcome Table. This episode was recorded in the Southern Living Birmingham studios, and Sid and Jessica talked about her mother’s signature mac and cheese, the cast-iron skillet she’d be sure to save if ever her house were on fire, and her dear friend, the late New Orleans chef Leah Chase.

Welcome to the VERY first episode of The SpaCast – a series that experientially explores spas all across the world in Dewy Dudes fashion. In this episode, former guest and behind-the-scenes beauty and internet consultant Ana Salazar and Evan recap their three-day stay at The Standard, Spa Miami Beach – a shabby-chic hydrotherapy spa and “hotel,” located on Miami’s Belle Isle. The two discuss their first impressions of Miami, the city’s under-the-knife body standards, what replicating New York in Miami looks like, couples who allegedly cruise the spa in hopes of securing a third or swapping with others, getting scrubbed raw, liposome-forward facials, mirror-triggering body dysmorphia, deranged male steam room behavior, and much, much more.

This week, we break down Magazine Dreams (2023), the unsettling and often frustrating indie drama about a troubled Black bodybuilder chasing aesthetic greatness while unraveling under mounting internal and external pressures. We explore the film’s take on masculinity, wellness, and image-obsessed culture, as well as how Jonathan Majors’ real-life domestic violence case—he was found guilty on two misdemeanor charges—reframes his performance. We also examine the film’s quiet, complicated rollout and how Majors’ off-screen scandal complicates its reception and legacy. We also dig into the film’s portrayal of performance culture, the physical extremes of bodybuilding, and its place in a long line of psychologically dark character studies, questioning whether it adds anything new to the genre. Also: gym alienation, performance-enhancing identity, and what happens when self-improvement turns into self-erasure.…
