It's Not Even Like That
It’s Not Even Like That is a comedic podcast that examines how the media depicts disability and smacks it in the face with a dose of reality. What is it like to be disabled? Judging from TV and film, disabled people are: angry, depressed, non-sexual, and pitiful. Or they’re portrayed as childlike, magical beings whose sole purpose is to inspire and remind non-disabled folks to appreciate what they have. Either way, the message is loud-and-clear: disability is bad. But why? Comedian Pavar Snipe is on a mission to find out! In each episode, she interviews a different disabled comic, actor, or media personality about their experiences and accomplishments before diving into what they think Hollywood gets right and so very wrong about disabled life. Along the way, she and her amazing guests smash the ridiculous stereotypes, myths, and tropes that have plagued the disability community for too long to prove that real life is much funnier than fiction.

On the surface, the modeling industry in the 80s was about parties and pretty clothes, but underneath the flash, there were drugs, sex, and violence. And Paul Fisher, a former straight-A student from the San Fernando Valley, rose to prominence amidst the turmoil. After a chance encounter with an alleged mobster, Paul suddenly found himself with a million dollars in funding and the chance to start a modeling agency in New York City. The city was then embroiled in a “model war” between industry titans Eileen Ford and John Casablancas, and Paul tried to make his mark. But even as Paul thrived in the party-heavy culture of the time, burning cash like a furnace, he came face to face with the darkest forces in the industry.
