This isn't the initial instance where Amanda has openly discussed significant shifts in her life. Last December, the "What I Like About You" star disclosed her decision to conclude the podcast she initiated with co-host Paul Sieminski-named "Amanda Bynes & Paul Sieminski: The Podcast"-merely a week following the release of its pilot episode.
In a TikTok video posted on December 17th, Amanda clarified her decision regarding the podcast. Despite its success and positive feedback, she expressed the need to halt it temporarily. Amanda mentioned that they faced challenges in securing desired guests like Jack Harlow, Drake, or Post Malone. She hinted that if they could manage to book such high-profile guests in the future, they might consider resuming the podcast. But for now, she emphasized the decision to take a break from it.
