Obese Chess: Origins
I literally needed it explained to me
Many such cases
I only recently learned that Chubby Checker specifically called himself that as a reference to Fats Domino, too

wait holy shit
Check out “goodbye victoria”
wtf this is so good!! i might never have found this, how is this so little known
Wow. And reading that he was in Holland for that….yeah that tracks lol. Didn’t expect to get new (to me) Chubby Checker lore in 2025
I am listening to this as soon as I get back to my car.
