In this episode of The Antidote, Amy and Grace connect with comedian, writer, and essayist Samantha Irby about her love of Judge Mathis, processing her emotions post-pandemic, and how she balances being ‘quietly hostile’ and loveable.
Amy and Grace share their bummer news of the week – the Fyre Fest founder is starting a new festival, and Megan Thee Stallion’s home was broken into. They also share their antidote— going to the ballet and meal delivery.
This week’s Creative Tap-In:
“You can’t put your finger on who I am. I can’t put my finger on who I am.”
-Beyoncé
