    Cheesy Anniversaries (w/ Alex Moffat)
    Nov 29 2024

    Comedian Alex Moffat (SNL) joins Nicole to discuss how his relationship is thanks to Velveeta cheese. This episode isn’t sponsored by Velveeta—but we really wish it was. Alex shares how he met his wife at a Velveeta commercial, how the cheese played an essential part in his proposal, and why it’s now a staple of their anniversary. He also discusses his pole dancing skills, bombing at a Nicole Byer comedy show, being an acrodunker for the Chicago Bulls, and shares some of the worst dating advice we've heard on the show.

Kindred in the Worst Way!

Unfortunately we share the same singleness curse. Maybe too open with our sexual needs and a little too witty for the average dude. Nicole is fantastic and brings out a different side to her guests. Love her cuteness and vocalizations. Yay!!

Silly, fresh and funny!

I have listened to this podcast for several years. i absolutely LOVE Nicole Byer! She talks about modern dating, therapy, and her life as a working actor and comedian with such humor and honesty. I feel like I have been a fly on the wall while Nicole has gotten more and more successful and happy. She makes me laugh amd I love her!
