Toni also talks about her chemistry with Ruby Soho, rooming with Jamie Hayter, and balancing her career and personal life. Plus, Toni talks about noodles, Mötley Crüe, and mental health – and she shares an unbelievable true travel story she experienced the day she recorded this podcast.

“You know how it is when you’re a kid and you see Jeff Hardy: it’s that excitement like no other. Just that energy, the charisma – everyone loves Jeff Hardy!
On Jamie Hayter:
