We are kicking off Season 3 with a knockout guest: Miss Sydney Thomas.
Sydney may be "the famous ring girl from the Netflix Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul fight" but did you know she's also a humble University of Alabama student who grew up in Missouri? Sydney shares her incredible story of overcoming the loss of her mother and how she landed the ring girl position that catapulted her into fame. She also talks her Midwestern upbringing, where she spent her childhood on her grandfather's farm and running around their land developing a deep respect for those who grow our food.
What's next for Sydney after college? How is she managing her newfound fame? Why was she kicked out of her sorority after only a few weeks? Tune in to hear more of her story.
