  • Don’t Get Married for Money with Nicole Byer
    Nov 21 2024

    Want to figure out how to manage 10 jobs at once, live in your dream home and not even worry about money? Nicole Byer is a self-made comedian and actress who is surviving and thriving in Hollywood, and she’s here to tell us all about it. You’ve probably seen her on Nailed It, Grand Crew or her standup special “Big Beautiful Weirdo.” And she also hosts FOUR podcasts. X and Nicole take us back to their UCB roots, and then go even farther back to a time when Nicole was young and had to figure out the whole money thing on her own. Plus, they talk about why Nicole married for money and what went wrong, the insane thing she did before she bought her house and why it’s so important to have a will (at any age!).

    Speed skater Erin Jackson was the first Black girl EVER to win an individual gold medal at the Winter Olympics in 2022. But guess what?

We sat down with Erin to talk about the price of being the best in the world, and how to make a living doing what you love.
