Devon Walker Met his Girlfriend on a Podcast

Comedian Devon Walker (SNL) joins Nicole to tell the story of how he met his girlfriend at a live podcast where they were set up on a blind date. He figured it was just a bit—until the audience voted for them to win an Applebee’s gift card and that turned into their actual first date. Three years later, they’re still together. He and Nicole talk about the woman who went viral eating 48 oysters on a first date, why it’s a red flag if your partner suddenly starts doing open mics, and how it feels when people send you unsolicited sex tapes in the DMs. Devon also shares the SNL sketch he’s dying to get on air. Plus: a deep dive into the food mascot universe - who’s comforting, who’s cursed, and why the Bubba Gump shrimp must be stopped.
