Ho Ho Ho, Sonic is Here! A Sonic The Hedgehog Holiday Special (w/ Ben Schwartz)

It’s an extra special holiday treat! Nicole Byer is joined by her friend, comedian, and actor Ben Schwartz to talk about the true love of her life — Sonic the Hedgehog. Nicole opens up to Ben about her deep, emotional connection to Sonic and why it’s not just a bit. Ben shares the unexpected journey of landing the role, the fan backlash to the original 'Ugly Sonic' design, and debunks some of the internet’s wildest Sonic fan theories. Nicole makes her formal pitch for how she’d like to join the Sonic universe herself. Plus, special guest call-in appearances with the voice of Tails, Colleen O'Shaughnessey, and Sonic artist and co-producer, Tyson Hesse. You don't want to miss this!
