Best Friends with Nicole Byer and Sasheer Zamata

Hey Friends! Nicole and Sasheer are back from their trip to the motherland, Africa! Unfortunately, they both got covid, but they are on the mend sharing their exciting journey. Sasheer loved the train ride in Zimbabwe. Nicole is convinced that they were best dressed. Sasheer was happy to make international friends. Nicole swam in the Devil’s Pool in Zambia. Sasheer was publicly dubbed the weakest swimmer at the same waterfall.  Nicole dove into some aggressive waves in the Seychelles. On Safari, Sasheer loved seeing the hippos and Nicole really loved the dung beetles. They hated that the trip back was delayed but they have wild stories on how they got back. Plus, they answer a friendship question on how to be a good friend to someone expecting their first child.

Lacey thinks Amber needs to get more clothes. Amber thinks that she and her sister would die instantly on Survivor. Lacey thinks she would do better because she’s been preparing for the Zombie Apocalypse. Tune in to find out how they did on besting each other and enjoy the impromptu spelling bee at the end.

Hey friends! Sasheer watched the musical Rent and it still holds up. Nicole and Sasheer do a pole dance and they are both sore. Sasheer feels she only needs to take it once a year. Nicole couldn’t live her life as a nun because they get up too early. Sasheer couldn't be a nun either. Nicole wonders what is under those nun robes. Sasheer wore fishnet stockings during her graduation ceremony. Nicole went to school to make friends… not to learn. Sasheer always did her homework while Nicole just did enough to get by. They are both amazed that North West can eat an onion raw, like an apple. No quiz this week but Nicole and Sasheer answer your friendship questions about hooking up with friends, setting up a complaint night and more.

This week, we’ve got a couch! And we’re live from the Netflix Is A Joke festival! We discuss the size of pyramids, Sasheer meeting Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin, the app Sasheer tells if she’s horny, pornhub - ever heard of it?, if Sasheer would travel 16 hours for a hot dog, and if Nicole got power hungry on the set of Nailed It. They take a quiz to find what bird they would be in another life, and learn if having a duck is feasible for Nicole. They answer listener questions about an office threesome, mushroom birthday presents, and lots of wonderful questions from our audience!

Hey Besties! Nicole shares how she learned some people marry objects. If Sasheer were to marry an object, it would be a chair while Nicole would marry a door. They also welcome Jordana Abraham and Jared Freid to playing Besting Each Other. Jordana first met Jared during a Betches of Comedy event in DC. Jared’s favorite memory of Jordana is that she loves a Starbucks! Jordana loves that Jared is hilarious and Jared loves that Jordana is straightforward. Jordana wishes that Jared would say no more and Jared believes Jordana wishes he would listen to her dating advice. They both agreed that Jordana would do better on Survivor than Jared. Together they host the U UP? podcast on the Betches podcast network.
