Amanda Bynes Pauses Her Podcast After Just One Episode
Amanda Bynes‘ newly-launched podcast is already hitting the brakes. After releasing the first episode of Amanda Bynes & Paul Sieminski: The Podcast, the former child star shared a video on her Instagram Story Sunday (December 17) announcing an update about the show. While holding her phone’s camera towards herself, Bynes, 37, says, “So even though the podcast is doing really well and the response has been great, I’m going to take a pause on it for now.” Her reasoning for the show’s hiatus is that she and Sieminski “are not able to get the type of guests that I’d like on the show like, say, Jack Harlow or Drake or Post Malone.”
Until the two are able to secure “those types of guests on the show,” the All That alum says they will resume “maybe one day” if that happens. Bynes concluded the video by thanking her fans and followers for their support of the project, which had its first episode drop last week. “Thank you everyone who watched; I really hope you enjoyed it. And that is all for now!” Bynes and her co-host, best friend, biochemist and PhD student, Paul Sieminski, interviewed Los Angeles tattoo artist Dahlia Moth during their 26-minute debut episode, which premiered on December 9. Moth met Bynes at a Spirit Halloween store a few years prior. During the first episode, however, Bynes’ energy was pretty lackluster as she read and stuck to the questions on her phone. Per the synopsis, the podcast was going to focus on “the hosts’ loves: fashion, artists, actors, actresses, music and everything else!”

Bynes first announced the project on Instagram last month. She said in a video that having Sieminski as her co-host would be “super impressive” because of his background in science. “Having his beautiful mind being a part of this podcast is just going to bring it to another level, I think, because he’s going to ask great questions, and I think he’ll kind of carry most of the weight in terms of just, like, topics of conversation.” Of her plan for the show, she said they would start out interviewing their friends and then were “hoping to take it mainstream and interview celebrities and artists.”
