How Not to Give a Shit With Samantha Irby
This week we had a talk with Samantha Irby, comedian, writer, inspiration blog ” Bitches Gotta Eat ” and the author of a new collection of essays, ” We will never meet in real life” , as well as the collection Meaty . We proclaimed her as the voice of our generation, talked about marriage and bachelorette parties and found out why she dedicated her book to Klonopin.
