Bynes' podcast, "Amanda Bynes & Paul Sieminski: The Podcast," is going on a break after the release of just one episode.

The former child star, who recently made her industry comeback with the podcast, thanked her followers for the positive reception while announcing that the show will have to be put on pause.

The reason for this is her inability to book famous guests for the podcast. She said on her Instagram stories, "So even though the podcast is doing really well and response has been great, I am going to take a pause on it for now."

"Thank you everyone who watched. I really hope you enjoyed it, and that is all for now," she concluded.

Bynes' podcast's debut episode was released on December 9 and featured L.A.-based tattoo artist Dahlia Moth. The former Nickelodeon star, alongside her co-host, Paul Sieminski, reminisced on how they met the model some years back when she was working at a spirit Halloween store.

Although Bynes didn't talk much about herself or her mental health struggles this year, the group of three discussed face tattoos and how no one cares for them anymore.

She said, "Nobody cares anymore if people have face tattoos. It shouldn't matter." Bynes notably has a face tattoo shaped like a heart on her left cheek. Although past reports claimed that she was planning on taking it off, it seems Bynes has moved past that idea and intends to keep the facial ink.
