Fitness Junkie

In this zany send-up of our health-conscious culture, Janey is given an ultimatum from her business partner to lose weight or lose her role as CEO of a couture wedding dress company. Susan Bennett's comedic and heartfelt narration is sure to delight listeners. Janey eschews her workaholic life for a world in which produce has a PR agent and fitness trends like consuming clay, Free the Nipple yoga, and secret dance routines punctuated by screams run rampant. Bennett brings all the characters to life with well-differentiated voices--from Janey's subtle Southern tones to her cousin's sugary folksy accent. Add a shaman's airy American tones and a fitness guru whose accent is a mystery, blending, as it does, Midwest tones with an Irish lilt, and you've got a cornucopia of quirky characters and a fun and funny listen.
