Whitney Cummings On This Painful Truth: How to Know If It’s Self Love or Narcissism

Comedian and truth-teller Whitney Cummings (known for her hit Good For You Podcast, Big Baby North American Tour, and iconic stand-up comedy specials) returns to MBB with a raw, hilarious, and eye-opening dive into how motherhood rewired her brain, comedy, and concept of love.

In this episode, Whitney shares her journey of balancing motherhood and comedy, how to use play for conflict resolution, and why “Pick me” is the worst insult.

Plus, she reveals how red light therapy gives her that post-baby glow. Don’t miss Whitney’s unfiltered insights on life, love, mental health, and why laughter truly is the best medicine. Watch now for Whitney Cummings' funniest moments, relationship advice, and her take on navigating the chaos of modern life.
