In this episode, Bonnie hosts her former TV stepdad and dear friend, Tom Arnold. Fresh off of his recent appearance on The Howard Stern Show, they get together for a no-holds-barred discussion about everything from loss, love, divorce, sobriety, kids, comedy and then some.
One of the most honest, kind, generous humans on the planet - and always there when anyone needs him, literally - Tom is the reason Bonnie started hosting charity events and being an auctioneer (long and crazy story).
The personification of never giving up, he’s had a million acts: Writer. Comedian. Producer. Father. Advocate. And now, on the new show, Queen of Meth – his story about growing up in Iowa, working in a meatpacking plant, surviving abuse, and watching his sister become one of the biggest drug traffickers in America.
Tom talks about how life doesn’t start or end when anyone else, or the world, says so. It’s up to you. You tell your own story. Overcome your mistakes, and live without regrets (well, except when he talks about how he regrets that he never hooked up with Bonnie, but other than that).
