Kim K. is always camera-ready. Amanda Hirsch, host of the “Not Skinny But Not Fat” podcast and Instagram account, became the first podcaster to interview the Kardashian sisters. She revealed to The Post that Kim’s lack of preference for her “good side” during their 2022 sitdown surprised her. “I asked her where she wanted to sit, and she said, ‘Oh, I don’t have a side,’” Hirsch noted, contrasting Kim’s relaxed approach with many celebrities’ carefully curated angles.
Hirsch, who has interviewed Kim, Khloé, Kourtney, and Kris Jenner, also praised the family’s relatability. “They didn’t ask for question lists or arrive with entourages,” said Hirsch, clarifying misconceptions about their lifestyles: “People assume they’re never with their kids, but it’s the opposite.” During her Kim interview at Skims headquarters, North West played basketball nearby.
Her chat with Kourtney took place in the star’s Los Angeles mansion during summer 2023, complete with an incongruously cozy fireplace. “It was 85 degrees, but Kourtney insisted it was ‘for the vibes,’” Hirsch laughed, recalling sweating through the conversation.
Hirsch began her career in 2016 by sharing humorous celebrity memes from her Upper East Side kitchen. A pivotal moment came when Kourtney liked one of her posts, proving the internet’s power to connect creators with their subjects. Today, she interviews A-listers like Ryan Reynolds, who sent her son a personalized video and later thanked her. Jennifer Aniston even complimented her highlights during a promo for “The Morning Show,” leaving Hirsch starstruck.
Currently, Hirsch hopes to land Meghan Markle as a guest, aiming to showcase the Duchess’s lighter side. Markle previously sent her handwritten encouragement—along with jam from her brand—after Hirsch voiced concern about public backlash to her Netflix series. “The note showed she’s in on the joke,” Hirsch said. “I’d love to capture more of that humor in an interview.”
