Headgum & Nicole Byer
About this episode

"We stayed married for 7 years - and we should've never gotten married."

From the age of 20, Ron Funches (Trolls, Giggle Fit, The Eric Andre Show) was married with a son. He shares his struggles being in a committed relationship from a young age, and what it's like now re-entering the dating world with a son.

He also shares the cute story how he mistook his current girlfriend for a robot on Bumble, expresses his love living in silence, and the changes in his dating life since losing weight.

See Ron Funches on tour, and check out his podcast Gettin' Better with Ron Funches.
