Teen Mom 2 Crossover: Why Kail Invited Devoin To Talk On Her Podcast

Devoin made his MTV debut back in 2011 as soon as he and Briana welcomed Baby Nova on 16 and Pregnant. While in tonight's Teen Mom 2 episode, Kail wanted to speak with the young father about his past and present.


"I saw that we were overwhelmed with messages [on our Instagram] to have Devoin on our podcast," Kail instructed her Coffee Convos Podcast co-host Lindsie. "I messaged him [on Instagram] and asked him if he would hope to come on, and he mentioned yes."

However just seeing how freely their baby mother's give them their kids, it's like, 'What the f*ck is wrong with me?' I'm not a felon; I ain't got nothing on my record. Why won't you just throw her at me?"


Kail and Lindsie's suggestions for Devoin: Put everything in writing.
