About this episode
Taylor Haynes discusses her viral moment as 'crab girl' and the realities of sudden fame.

After a crab latched onto her finger during an Easter weekend segment, Taylor became an overnight internet sensation, dubbed “the crab girl” across every online platform. But behind the headlines is a broadcaster who has spent more than a decade working toward her moment on screen. On this episode, Taylor shares what really happened during that now-infamous live cross, the reality of becoming viral overnight, and why she refuses to read the comments.
