00:28 She wrote in a March 28th Instagram story, "I've gained over 20 pounds in the past
00:33 few months from being depressed."
00:35 However, the former Nickelodeon star then goes on to share fans that she's now in

01:07 the podcast she started alongside co-host Paul Szymanski, called Amanda Bynes and Paul
01:12 Szymanski The Podcast, just one week after its debut episode aired, telling followers
01:17 in a December 17th IG post that until she was able to get more famous guests, she would
01:23 not be continuing the podcast.
01:24 "So even though the podcast is doing really well and the response has been great, I am
01:32 going to take a pause on it for now.
01:34 We are not able to get the type of guests that I'd like on the show, like say Jack
01:38 Harlow or Drake or Post Malone.
01:41 So maybe one day if we're able to get those types of guests on the show, we will resume
01:45 the podcast.
01:46 But for now, I'm taking a pause on it.
01:49 Thank you everyone who watched.
01:51 I really hope you enjoyed it.
01:53 And that is all for now."
01:54 The Amanda Show alum later shared that she was instead pivoting careers to become a nail
01:58 technician.
01:59 Writing in a December 21st IG story, "The first episode of my podcast did really well.
02:04 I was actually surprised and of course was going to keep going after friends encouraged
02:09 me to.
02:10 After thinking about it, though, I would rather get my manicurist license and have a consistent
02:14 job.
02:15 I'm going to follow that path instead.
02:17 Thank you for following my journey."
02:18 Amanda later revealed she had failed her license exam three times.
02:22 However, in a March 6th follow-up video, she confidently shared she was not giving up.
02:27 "Hey everybody, I wanted to let my fans know that I'm taking the board exam to get my manicurist
02:31 license this Tuesday.
02:32 I really hope I pass the test this time.
02:33 I will let you all know if I do or don't, of course, and I'll keep retaking it until
02:38 I get the license.
02:39 I hope everybody has a great day.
02:40 Bye!"
