"We actually only spent time together," the Disney Channel alum explained in regard to filming the first season of the show during the COVID-19 pandemic. "Thank God I find them very fascinating, 'cause I don't know what I would do! But I love them, and so, I have a great time."

"They are very sweet and kind and hilarious — and inappropriate sometimes, and it's the best," the "Lose You to Love Me" singer continued during an interview on the "Awards Chatter" podcast back in June. "I just learned so much. And my expectation for a man, to be honest, or any human, is to be as decent as these two human beings are. They have been doing this longer than I have been alive and they are the kindest people."

My Mind & Me is currently available for streaming on Apple TV+, while Martin's illustrated memoir released on November 15.
