Skipping Love (w/ Betsy Sodaro)

Headgum & Nicole Byer
About this episode

Comedian and friend Betsy Sodaro (Ghosts, A Funny Feeling) joins Nicole to swap crazy Las Vegas stories, their experience getting slammed by puberty, and debate why we shouldn’t have to pay taxes right now (plus what happened when Nicole skipped paying taxes for 5 years). Betsy reveals what life was like spending six months in a hotel, and Nicole confesses she nearly launched an anime-recap podcast with an ex. Plus: the time a customer-service call at Lane Bryant turned into phone sex.
