Actress, author, producer, and model Garcelle Beauvais (Coming to America, Spider-Man: Homecoming, The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills) and comedian, writer, and actor Ron Funches (Curb Your Enthusiasm, Black-ish, Season 4 of The Traitors) join Jameela to discuss the many ways a recycling bin, a mushroom gummy, and a fashion show introduction can lead to public humiliations.Garcelle once cost herself a major modeling contract by asking a question you should never, ever ask a woman. Ron arrives with a curated menu of humiliations - one fight story, two poop stories, one involving a famous person - and Jameela insists on all of them. Ron's Big Wrong Turn involves Eric Andre's birthday, a first-time mushroom experience, and one bathroom for the entire house party.Jameela shares her own psychedelic disasters, including a Bjork concert that nearly killed her, and a hotel encounter with one of the Franco brothers that looked considerably worse from the outside.

Jameela Jamil joins Joy Taylor for a powerful conversation about trauma, healing, women's safety, feminism, and the hidden toll constant stress takes on the nervous system.

Comedian and actor Rachel Feinstein (Inside Amy Schumer, Crashing, Trainwreck, Big Guy on Netflix) and comedian, actor, and writer Ben Gleib (Chelsea Lately, Ice Age: Continental Drift, Good Night with Ben Gleib on YouTube) join Jameela to share their most catastrophic life moments, and things go off the rails almost immediately.Ben reveals what happens when Chelsea Handler gets bored on a private jet and peer-pressures you into propositioning the flight crew, while Rachel recounts the Christmas she tried to impress her future in-laws and ended up with a mouthful of candle wax. Both agree: the key to surviving humiliation is to just keep going.Later, Ben's attempt to save $37 on an Uber spirals into a full parking lot brawl involving a surprise Coffee Mate attack, and Rachel takes us to the saddest hotel in New York City, where every channel is porn, and her date packed matching Giants pajamas.Along the way, Jameela shares the time a therapist dumped her after one session, and the gang discovers they are all furiously, passionately angry about geography.

Rory's involves a pool party at age 12, an unfortunate bodily betrayal, and a decades-long cover-up that a childhood friend recently confirmed was not as secret as he thought.In Misery Loves Company, listener Armando shares a college dorm sleepwalking incident that unlocks a fear none of us knew we had.Follow Rory at @RoryScovel everywhere and listen to CrimeLess wherever you get your podcasts.

RHLSTP #610 - Cake in a Graveyard - Richard is excited about the breaking news (at time of recording). Broken years ago by this podcast and treats the audience to his poem about the disgraced Randrew Andrew. His guest is a woman with a life that feels like it has been moulded by Greek Gods fighting with a genie, the very open and frank and incredible Jameela Jamil. And she is not alone. She brings two further guests, one of whom has been vomiting blood. All in a day's normalcy for Jameela. They discuss he brilliant podcast Wrong Moves with Jameela Jamil, kicking a stunt man in the dick, running into a force field with a cake, the bee-based car accident that nearly killed her, but led to the best year of her life (she claims), the lies she's told to get jobs and the incredible and unbelievable truths that have accompanied her on her journey, how a school bully led to her becoming an actor (but long after they'd left school), her imminent 40th birthday, how our respective gigs for Elton John went, an incredible story about paying for someone's IVF that should completely be a sitcom and how Richard might just be a peripheral side character in the simulation that is Jameela's impossible life. This is up there with Brian Blessed, but I think this time, it's all true.Listen to Jameela's podcast Wrong Turns here (or wherever you get your podcasts) - https://open.spotify.com/show/48QtcFDDyQzKIc4B0fo4V7Listen to the full unredacted Sofie Hagen episode here (Randrew Andrew chat begins around 1:08:00) - https://open.spotify.com/episode/7rKIkLAmgEOtOrbpNJVZ6hCome and see RHLSTP live - http://richardherring.com/rhlstp.

Laura Peek (Comedy Central, The Tonight Show, After Midnight) and Audrey Stewart (Just for Laughs New Face, Netflix Is a Joke Festival, Don't Tell Comedy) join Jameela for an episode that goes places no one anticipated.Laura's eighth-grade country club pool day goes catastrophically wrong thanks to one forgotten detail and a high dive. Audrey finally hooks up with her dream college crush only for him to ruin it all with two devastating words the next morning. Then the Big Wrong Turns get even wilder - Audrey's best day of second grade takes a turn that has to be heard to be believed, and Laura's post-vocal-cord-surgery sorority era involves a whistle, a dry erase board, and a frat party bunk bed disaster.Jameela confesses to mistakenly calling Oaxaca "Waxico," the group debates whether the purple pool pee dye was ever real, and a Misery Loves Company listener learns that Nair and romance do not mix.Find Laura on Instagram @laurapeek and Audrey @audreystewisart.Jameela's Substack is A Low Desire To Please, you can also find her on Instagram, TikTok and YouTube.Our consulting producer is Colin Anderson.Wrong Turns was created and produced by Jameela Jamil and Stewart Bailey.

Comedian and actor Gianmarco Soresi (Thief of Joy comedy special, Netflix, The Downside podcast) and comedian Raanan Hershberg (The Tonight Show, Comedy Central, Your Favorite Movie Sucks podcast) join Jameela for an episode that encompasses the Middle East peace process, the American healthcare system, and fraternity hazing rituals involving marshmallows.Gianmarco's micro humiliation takes us back to college, where four years of anxiety about cracking during a song culminated in exactly that, on the final note of an eight-minute Rodgers and Hammerstein soliloquy, in front of everyone, with absolutely no way to play it off. His Big Wrong Turn begins with a gig booked through his uncle in real estate: a private roast of a 50-year-old stranger at his second bachelor party in a New Jersey steakhouse. He shows up in a suit. They're in shorts. They're sitting in a circle. And it only gets worse from there.Raanan's Big Wrong Turn is less wrong turn, more system failure. His girlfriend has an eye stroke, and what follows is an ambulance with no siren, insurance paperwork filled out in the back of said ambulance, a doctor appearing via video call from her kitchen, and a transfer to a second hospital in a storm immediately after taking blood thinners. America!In this week's Misery Loves Company, a listener named Edward recounts a fraternity initiation involving a marshmallow relay race that is exactly as bad as it sounds, and makes the only sane decision anyone in this episode manages.Follow Raanan at @RaananComedy and watch his podcast Your Favorite Movie Sucks on YouTube.

Comedians, writers, and co-hosts of the legendary podcast Guys We F****d, Krystyna Hutchinson and Corinne Fisher join Jameela this week for an episode that gets intimate, unhinged, and deeply relatable in equal measure.Corinne shares what happened when she tried to set the mood on a COVID-era Zoom date with Post-it note talking points, deli container margaritas, and a candle that set her hair on fire. Krystyna's Big Wrong Turn takes us inside Hurricane Sandy, a flooding apartment, a boyfriend who promised to throw out his ex-porn-star's Fleshlight collection, and the moment she discovered he had not. Jameela, meanwhile, reveals that her inner self on psychedelics turned out to be a very boring white lady who shops at Erewhon, and recounts the full catastrophic chain of events leading up to her Good Place audition, including curling her hair with her roommate's dildo and spending ten minutes alone in a casting director's bathroom using her teeth as a wrench.This week's Misery Loves Company comes from listener Josie, who declared her love at a prom after party, spent ten minutes arguing with the guy that he did love her actually, and ran into him the next morning looking like Beetlejuice.You can find Krystyna and Corinne's podcast Guys We F**ked wherever you get your podcasts.

Comedian, writer, and producer Ian Lara (Tonight Show veteran, HBO special Romantic Comedy, new free special Material Boy on YouTube) and writer, producer, and director Michael Blieden (The Daily Show, Broad City, forthcoming Mitch Hedberg documentary) join Jameela with stories that will make you feel significantly better about your own life choices.Ian once decided the best path to fame was an original rap performed acapella in coordinated outfits in front of his entire elementary school. Michael once accidentally played a podcast that opened with "Are white people special?" to his Black driver and just... kept it on. Jameela once performed a full Sally Bowles striptease routine from Cabaret at her all-girls school aged 12, and was bribed by her headmistress not to do it again.Also: an exploding chili dog audition, Larry David, and a listener who learned that "Fiona" sounds like Italian slang for something you really don't want your name to mean.You can follow Ian at @ianlara on Instagram and TikTok and watch his specials on YouTube and HBO.

Jordan and thirty-five minutes of shimmying politely in the background. Ava, meanwhile, shares what happens when you answer a phone call mid-hookup convinced it's a casting director, and what happens when the entire contents of a large coffee decide to make their exit during a Zoom audition with Mindy Kaling.This week's Misery Loves Company comes from listener Jess, whose very enthusiastic sex life managed to send a firefighter back into a second round of ACL surgery, and inspires the team to ask: "Should we have signature moves?"You can follow Kat on Instagram at @katbirdcomedy and find her tour dates at katbirdcomedy.com.

Finding The Joy in Simplity:Jameela Bhikoo by Radio Islam

Comedian and actor Daphnique Springs (Single Female YouTube special, Unapologetically Daphne podcast) and comedian and actor Matt Braunger (Black-ish, Agent Carter, comedy special Doug) join Jameela for an episode that begins with a theory about serial killers and ends in total, beautiful chaos.Matt's Big Wrong Turn takes us to a wedding he absolutely should not have attended -- the wedding of a woman he was having an on-again off-again affair with. What follows is a masterclass in how not to be inconspicuous, featuring a one-man karaoke show on a table with the bride's aunt, shots at the bar with the woman who just said her vows, and a solo retreat to a closet to contemplate his life choices. The twist at the end makes it all worth it.Daphnique's Big Wrong Turn begins as a love story: a wealthy dentist, gifts from Versace, vacations, family introductions, and what looked very much like the soft life within reach. It ends at a Beverly Hills boutique counter, where a sales associate mistakes her for someone else entirely, and the whole architecture of the relationship collapses in an instant.Along the way, Jameela recounts getting hit by a car, breaking her back, doing star jumps out of sheer adrenaline, and not mentioning it to anyone before having to spend a year and a half in bed. She also shares the story of turning down a marriage proposal by email, citing concerns of a deeply anatomical nature.Misery Loves Company this week comes courtesy of a couple in China who attempted a TikTok trend involving a fist and a mouth and ended up in hospital.

Actor Alan Tudyk (Arrested Development, Rogue One, Resident Alien) and comedian and actor Jade Catta-Preta (Modern Family, Life in Pieces, The Soup on E!) join Jameela for an episode that somehow ends up exactly where you'd expect, and nowhere you could have predicted.Alan's micro humiliation arrives courtesy of a chance encounter with a Disney executive, a case of mistaken identity, and the particular horror of confidently addressing the wrong powerful man by the wrong name to his face. His Big Wrong Turn takes us to a casual industry football game, where Alan shows up with brand new boots bought the day before, immediately starts playing what can only be described as rug-ball, gets demoted to goalie, concedes three goals, and is the only person in Los Angeles not invited for drinks afterwards.Jade's micro humiliation unfolds live on Watch What Happens, when an attempt to remove a stray hair from Andy Cohen's face reveals that it is very much still attached to him. Her Big Wrong Turn takes us back to a school production that cemented her fate as the default ethnic casting choice for every role going, from Lola in Damn Yankees to Scary Spice, not because she was the best fit, but because she was the only brown person in the building.In place of this week's Misery Loves Company, Jameela shares the story of paying for a friend's IVF to avoid becoming a godmother, only to watch that friend meet her sperm donor the night before the procedure and immediately render the whole thing completely unnecessary.Watch Alan Tudyk in Resident Alien on Sci-Fi and Peacock, and in Superman. He also co-hosts Once We Were Spacemen with Nathan Fillion, available wherever you get your podcasts.

Comedian and actor Taran Killam (Saturday Night Live, High Potential, 12 Years a Slave) and actor Jenn Lyon (Claws, The English Teacher, Dead Boy Detectives) join Jameela and immediately reveal themselves to be two of the purest, yet most deeply unhinged people she has ever encountered.Taran opens with a micro humiliation for the ages: the time he forgot every lyric to the same Hamilton song he'd performed hundreds of times, in front of 1,300 high school kids who knew every single word. His Big Wrong Turn, however, takes us back to 2001 and a backstage encounter with Tenacious D and Dave Grohl that begins with hero worship, escalates through increasingly desperate attempts at shock humor, and ends with Jack Black delivering the most devastating possible verdict on his presence in the room.Jenn's micro humiliation is a masterclass in the cruelty of school nicknames, and how she went from "Majestic Lemon", to "Derbis", to "Two Tut" all within her fourth grade year. Her Big Wrong Turn arrives courtesy of the Atkins diet, a metric ton of sugar-free candy, and the particular horror of realizing mid-song, in full period corsetry, that something has gone catastrophically wrong inside your tights.Along the way, Jameela reveals a friend's long-running photo-bombing habit that has somehow survived the #MeToo era, and explains exactly why she could never, ever do a play or a TED Talk.Misery Loves Company comes from Greg, whose college habit of casually exposing a testicle in public went unnoticed until a woman asking for directions clocked it and offered some gentle medical advice.Watch Taran Killam and Jenn Lyon in Stumble, Fridays on NBC and streaming on Peacock.Jameela's Substack is A Low Desire To Please, you can also find her on Instagram, TikTok and YouTube.Our consulting producer is Colin Anderson.Wrong Turns was created and produced by Jameela Jamil and Stewart Bailey.

Jameela is joined by comedian, writer, actors Guy Branum (Hacks, The Mindy Project, Chelsea Lately) and X Mayo (Loot, The Daily Show).Together they swap stories that probably should have stayed buried forever - the kind of wrong turns that begin with confidence and end in public humiliation. From disastrous celebrity encounters to sexual encounters so bleak you may decide to abstain completely.Guy delivers a story that proves confidence is sometimes the worst possible thing you can bring into a social interaction, while X Mayo reminds everyone to treat their TSA agents with respect and kindness.Find Guy Branum:Follow Guy across social media at @GuyBranum (and @GuyBranumComedy on TikTok).

Comedians Arden Myrin (The Righteous Gemstones, Shameless, and host of Will You Accept This Rose?) and Blair Socci (Comedy Central, CBS, Bob's Burgers, and host of Spaced Out with Blair Socci) join Jameela for an episode that immediately reveals itself to be a twin flame friendship.From the very first minute, dignity packs its bags.Blair shares a laundromat incident involving a forgotten vibrator, a Catholic school gray sweatpants catastrophe, and a UTI so severe it required meeting a boyfriend's entire extended family in the emergency room. Arden counters with a black diamond ski slope humiliation that derailed a teenage crush, plus candy theft, DayQuil disasters, and the kind of adolescent yearning that makes you believe walking past a video store sixty times a day is completely normal.Along the way, the three of them unpack bladder betrayal, edible miscalculations, shame spirals, crush delusions, and the deeply spiritual power of simply owning your humiliation before anyone else can weaponize it.It's chaos. It's confession. It's extremely bonded feminine energy.And it's what happens when you realize that common sense was chasing you, but you were faster.Jameela's Substack is A Low Desire To Please, you can also find her on Instagram, TikTok and YouTube.Our consulting producer is Colin Anderson.Wrong Turns was created and produced by Jameela Jamil and Stewart Bailey.Listen to Wrong Turns on Amazon Music or wherever you find your podcasts.

In this funny, fascinating, and scandal-filled podcast, Jameela Jamil and historian Dr Kate Lister pore over the stories of six astonishing “other women”. Women who have been shamed, disparaged and underestimated. Some have been cheated out of the history books altogether. Now Jameela and Kate are placing their stories in the spotlight – to see what history looks like through the eyes of the so-called side-chick.Jameela and Kate are also joined by Katie Kennedy, aka The History Gossip, to drop some extra historical knowledge in her own inimitable way…Prepare for a wild, gossip-fuelled ride through real history – sex, scandal, murder, betrayal, poisoning, witchcraft and much more.Episode 1: Follow the rise and fall of King Louis XIV's gilded era through the eyes of his outrageous maîtresse-en-titre (“official” mistress), Madame de Montespan. Quick, cunning and oh-so-extra, Montespan would stop at nothing to get to the top – including (if rumours are to be believed) poisoning any love rivals that got in her way.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Comedian Steve Agee (The Suicide Squad, Peacemaker, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2) and comedian Erica Rhodes (Bring Back the Funny, Modern Family, Last Comic Standing) joined Jameela Jamil for one of those sessions that spiraled gloriously out of control.The conversation ran long because Steve told an extra story that was so catastrophically funny, so unnecessary, and so vividly described that it could not be left on the cutting room floor.What begins as a boisterous teenage party leads to catastrophic consequences, and one of the most graphic cautionary tales ever told on Wrong Turns. Erica nearly loses it, Jameela somehow has a worse story from the last couple of weeks that she'd forgotten to mention until now.It is gross. It is detailed. It is absolutely a warning to hydrate responsibly.Follow Steve Agee for more stories you may or may not be emotionally prepared for, and follow Erica Rhodes for sharp wit that remains impressively intact even under extreme narrative conditions.And as always, follow Wrong Turns (TikTok) for more stories that probably should have stayed inside people's heads.Jameela's Substack is A Low Desire To Please, you can also find her on Instagram, TikTok and YouTube.Our consulting producer is Colin Anderson.Wrong Turns was created and produced by Jameela Jamil and Stewart Bailey.Listen to Wrong Turns on Amazon Music or wherever you find your podcasts.

Comedians Erica Rhodes (Veep, Modern Family, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert) and Steve Agee (Guardians of the Galaxy, Peacemaker, Abbott Elementary) join Jameela for an episode that begins with dietary advice and ends… in a urologist's office.Erica recounts the date that launched a viral moment, involving a wildly inappropriate comparison, some questionable role-play, and a man who may or may not be a pathological liar. She also shares the most humbling twist of fate imaginable after attempting to make someone jealous in New York.Steve delivers a catastrophic Hollywood Boulevard micro-humiliation involving laundry day, no drawstring, and rush-hour traffic, before taking us deep into the saga of kidney stones, shockwave therapy, and a medical procedure that will have you crossing your legs in solidarity.Along the way, Jameela reflects on early career panic, birthday disappointments, dating interrogations outside police stations, and maybe recommends morphine?This is an episode about humiliation, survival, and the strange comfort of knowing that one day, even your worst moment might make a great story.Follow Erica at ericarhodescomedy.com for tour dates.Follow Steve everywhere he appears, which is apparently everywhere.Jameela's Substack is A Low Desire To Please, you can also find her on Instagram, TikTok and YouTube.Our consulting producer is Colin Anderson.Wrong Turns was created and produced by Jameela Jamil and Stewart Bailey.Listen to Wrong Turns on Amazon Music or wherever you find your podcasts.

Comedians Travon Free (The Daily Show, Two Distant Strangers - Netflix) and Rob Corddry (The Daily Show, Hot Tub Time Machine) join Jameela for a masterclass in public humiliation, professional disaster, and the kind of moments that will forever wake you up at 3am.Travon shares the teenage moment he thought he had twenty minutes of privacy with his girlfriend, until he very much did not, and then the career nightmare of accidentally emailing one of his scripts to the entire staff at The Daily Show, gifting the funniest people in television unlimited ammunition.Rob relives the night he bombed so catastrophically while hosting a room full of movie stars that he instructed his wife to get the car running. The crowd froze, legends stared him down, and one extremely famous comedy god enjoyed every second of the collapse.Along the way, Jameela reflects on falling spectacularly at her latest premiere, why disaster can feel hilarious mid-air, and the cringiest story of celebrity leftovers.Dignity is not recovered.

Jameela Jamil (The Good Place, Elio) joins us this week for a wildly honest conversation about chronic illness, passive self destruction and why she is done biohacking her life. Jameela opens up about living with Ehlers Danlos syndrome, surviving childhood abuse, the nervous breakdown that turned her into a truth teller and how EMDR therapy completely rewired her relationship to trauma and fear. We also get into her war on beauty and the unbelievable way a school bully pushed her straight into The Good Place. Thank you to our sponsors:

Jameela welcomes Ed Helms (The Office, The Hangover, SNAFU podcast) and Brian Huskey (Veep, Bob's Burgers, Community) for a masterclass in public humiliation, bodily betrayal, and the art of staying professional while everything is actively going wrong.Ed shares about his resting plane face, then revisits an Office scene that turned into a sealed-car panic situation. From there, things escalate in Bangkok, where one innocent street food decision leads to him shirtless on a red-light-district sidewalk between takes, being fed Sprite through a straw by Bradley Cooper and Zach Galifianakis.Meanwhile, Brian's commitment to “the bit” reaches medically concerning levels, as a flirtation story becomes a full fainting incident that nobody recognises as a real emergency. Add in digestive disasters, professional embarrassment, and the delicate balance between dignity and dehydration, and you've got another episode of Wrong Turns doing exactly what it says on the tin. No lessons. No recovery arc. Just three people trying to survive their own bodies in public.Jameela's Substack is A Low Desire To Please, you can also find her on Instagram, TikTok and YouTube.Our consulting producer is Colin Anderson.Wrong Turns was created and produced by Jameela Jamil and Stewart Bailey.Listen to Wrong Turns on Amazon Music or wherever you find your podcasts.

Comedians Jiaoying Summers (What Specie Are You? Hulu Special, Tiger Mum Podcast) and Yola Jean Lu (Help My Vagina Is Trying to Kill Me special, Patsy short film) join Jameela Jamil for an “Asian invasion,” unpacking shame, power, and humiliation in ways only Wrong Turns can.Jiaoying shares the childhood story that rewired her immune system forever, involving a roadside motel and discarded “balloons.” She also recounts the most mortifying collision of debt, pride, and gynecological exams imaginable, and explains why embarrassment loses all power once you decide not to care.Yola brings exquisitely awkward confessions, including a man who periodically asks for nudes with unsettling sincerity, and a prolonged, one-sided love story with a dentist that involved unnecessary Invisalign, a farewell card, and travel-size toothpaste.Along the way, Jameela reflects on inherited guilt, public embarrassment, private text messages never meant to be seen, and the strange ways women are taught to feel indebted just for existing.And remember next time you're having some special alone time... the ancestors are watching.Jameela's Substack is A Low Desire To Please, you can also find her on Instagram, TikTok and YouTube.Our consulting producer is Colin Anderson.Wrong Turns was created and produced by Jameela Jamil and Stewart Bailey.Listen to Wrong Turns on Amazon Music or wherever you find your podcasts.

Comedians Leah Rudick (High Maintenance, Spiraling special on Apple, live tickets) and Alyssa Limperis (What We Do in the Shadows, Short of the Week film, No Bad Days special on Peacock) join Jameela for a conversation that begins with a “30 Day Rule” for food found on the floor and somehow escalates into concussions, sex education failures, and deeply inappropriate generosity from future in-laws.Alyssa recounts the day an intimacy coordinator stopped a sex scene to explain that she was not doing sex correctly, while Leah shares the unforgettable experience of meeting her mother-in-law for the first time and being invited to browse, borrow, and ultimately take home items from her personal sex drawer.Along the way, Jameela traces the long arc of repeated head injuries, a childhood with zero sex education, and the strange humiliations that shape how we move through our bodies as adults.No silver linings. No dignity. Just three comedians comparing notes on shame, consent, and why some rules really should have an expiration date.Jameela's Substack is A Low Desire To Please, you can also find her on Instagram, TikTok and YouTube.Our consulting producer is Colin Anderson.Wrong Turns was created and produced by Jameela Jamil and Stewart Bailey.Listen to Wrong Turns on Amazon Music or wherever you find your podcasts.

Comedian and writer Jessi Klein (Big Mouth, Inside Amy Schumer, I'll Show Myself Out) and comedian Trae Crowder (The Liberal Redneck Manifesto, Trash Daddy) join Jameela Jamil to unpack a lifetime of exquisitely timed social misfires, celebrity encounters gone wrong, and the unique horror of realizing you may have accidentally discouraged a bunch of people who later became extremely famous.Jessi confesses to being Clare Danes' first hater, gently warning a pre-My So-Called Life middle schooler that acting might not be a practical career choice, then doubling down years later by encouraging Mark Ronson to stay in college instead of becoming a DJ. Things only escalate from there, including an Ethan Hawke missed connection that still haunts her soul.Trae shares his own catalogue of humiliation, from confidently announcing “I was on Bill Maher” to Tim Robbins with no follow-up, to screaming his friend GABE's name across a room full of A-list celebrities, to destroying his kids' new drone in front of an elderly father-in-law who immediately climbs a tree to retrieve it while silently judging him.Along the way, Jameela recounts freezing into a full-body malfunction while meeting Whitney Cummings, and why sometimes the worst part of a sympathetic interaction is knowing you'll definitely have to see that person again.No villains. No winners. Just deeply relatable micro-humiliations, permanent psychic damage, and the long tail of regret.Jessi Klein's book I'll Show Myself Out is available now, and she co-hosts the podcast Here to Make Friends.Trae Crowder's stand-up special Trash Daddy is streaming on YouTube, and his books The Liberal Redneck Manifesto and Round Here and Over Yonder are out now.Jameela's Substack is A Low Desire To Please, you can also find her on Instagram, TikTok and YouTube.Our consulting producer is Colin Anderson.Wrong Turns was created and produced by Jameela Jamil and Stewart Bailey.Listen to Wrong Turns on Amazon Music or wherever you find your podcasts.

Jameela Jamil is back for a killer crossover! We were recently guests on her show Wrongs Turns, where we told embarrassing stories from our past, and now Jameela joins us to further delve into her romantic and therapeutic life! Last time she was on, LA was burning, and we spent the majority of the conversation looking out the window just in case things got inferno-y. But the fires are over and everything in the world is good now. Ahem. Anyway, we get into it with Jameela about the wide gulf between her public persona and how she feels inside about herself. We talk meeting her bf James Blake, the songs he writes about her and again, how his version of her clashes with her own self-image. We talk about not wanting to be perceived and how a nice paycheck and a little dissociation can overcome those feelings, and of course, we talk dental hygiene!

Comedians Steph Tolev (Hacks, Filth Queen on Netflix) and Frankie Quiñones (This Fool on Hulu, What We Do in the Shadows) join Jameela Jamil for a tour through humiliation, betrayal, and stories that should never be told in public but absolutely must be.Steph recounts a series of escalating disasters, including waking up extremely drunk in a basement during a hookup gone wrong, a teenage escape attempt that leaves her hanging from a fence “like a muppet” in front of thousands of witnesses, and a reminder that bad clothing choices can ruin your life. Frankie shares his own experiences with public embarrassment and the particular horror of bombing onstage in front of the worst possible audiences.Along the way, Jameela explains why stand-up comedy is the true front line of entertainment, relives the uniquely painful betrayal of a friend refusing to give you a ride home (with celebrity consequences), and tells the story of her own dog jumping into Conan O'Brien's pool at exactly the wrong moment.No lessons learned. No dignity recovered. Just lifelong cringe, lovingly unpacked.Steph Tolev's Netflix special Filth Queen is streaming now, and you can follow her on tour worldwide.

Comedians Jessimae Peluso (Girl Code, Sharp Tongue, Dying Laughing podcast) and Justin Martindale (Just Sayin' podcast, Gay Bash) join Jameela Jamil for a Wrong Turns episode that escalates from bad dates into full survival mode.Jessimae shares how mistaking a walking red flag for romance led to “dating the DSM-5,” escalating behavior, and ultimately pursuing a restraining order when things turned genuinely frightening. Justin recounts a friendship-ending humiliation involving accusations that made no sense, a brutal “your dad's a 4” assessment, and the unforgettable concept of Midwest Turtle People.Together, they unpack why behavior that's “normally romantic” can become alarming fast, how charm can disguise danger, and why sometimes the only correct response is calling on a trusted friend to go "full-towel, nuts out, in a bush".No lessons. No silver linings. Just two unforgettable Wrong Turns and one very palpable vibe.Jameela's Substack is A Low Desire To Please, you can also find her on Instagram, TikTok and YouTube.Our consulting producer is Colin Anderson.Wrong Turns was created and produced by Jameela Jamil and Stewart Bailey.Listen to Wrong Turns on Amazon Music or wherever you find your podcasts.

Comedians and podcasters Naomi Ekperigin (Broad City, Hacks, Mythic Quest) and Andy Beckerman (The Pete Holmes Show, Cedric's Barber Battle, Couples Therapy) join Jameela Jamil for a messy dive into marriage superstitions, chaos goblins, and a truly staggering collection of micro-humiliations.Naomi relives the nightmare of meeting Andy's parents for the first time, only to end up hospitalized within hours, delivering her full medical history four months into a relationship that somehow survived. Andy shares a seventh-grade “prank” so ill-conceived it nearly caused a multi-parent emergency, plus the existential horror of being forced into a talent show with no talent and no escape.Along the way, Jameela explains her theory that marriage alerts the universe to send dangerously attractive temptations, recounts an accidental nude incident at an accidental visit to a Greek weight-loss spa, and confirms once and for all that some embarrassment permanently rewires your DNA.No silver linings. No dignity. Just lifelong cringe, lovingly unpacked.Jameela's Substack is A Low Desire To Please, you can also find her on Instagram, TikTok and YouTube.Our consulting producer is Colin Anderson.Wrong Turns was created and produced by Jameela Jamil and Stewart Bailey.Listen to Wrong Turns on Amazon Music or wherever you find your podcasts.

Adam Rose (LA's Finest, Small Stupid Stuff podcast, YouTube) and Kevin James Thornton (Be Yourself special, Call Kevin podcast, YouTube) join Jameela to unpack a series of deeply questionable life decisions, including pet squirrels with boundary issues, cosmetic school as a financial strategy, and how to make it through a night in jail as a 16-year-old dance instructor.Childhood arrests, disastrous career pivots, and the kind of dating stories that permanently change how you screen potential partners. Along the way, Jameela shares her own unlikely path to The Good Place, the strange comforts of shared humiliation, and why some wrong turns feel less like mistakes and more like destiny having a sense of humor.Find Kevin James Thornton at kevinjamesthornton.com and listen to his podcast Call Kevin.Follow Adam Rose at @RealAdamRose and check out his new podcast Small, Stupid Stuff.Jameela's Substack is A Low Desire To Please, you can also find her on Instagram, TikTok and YouTube.Our consulting producer is Colin Anderson.Wrong Turns was created and produced by Jameela Jamil and Stewart Bailey.Listen to Wrong Turns on Amazon Music or wherever you find your podcasts.

Content Warning: This conversation contains themes of disordered eating and child abuseJameela Jamil is among the most beautiful public figures who hold some of the strongest anti-beauty sentiments. She was scouted for television while walking down the street and later hired to host a series on Channel 4. As she shares in the episode, this role reinforced many of the harmful patriarchal standards about women's beauty and bodies that she learned as a child. Jameela shares that she didn't feel beautiful growing up, and despite her early beauty icons being voluptuous women of color, she held herself to an unnatural standard of thinness and battled anorexia to achieve it. Her ascent into the public eye only exacerbated her struggles with her weight. By her late twenties, she began to question why she was being held to such rigid expectations by fashion media execs who couldn't meet them; ultimately, she decided to fight back.Since then, Jameela has made a name for herself as an actress, public figure, and outspoken advocate for women's rights. During our conversation, we discussed personal growth and why women must meet their own high standards, whether men like it or not, including her partner. Jameela doesn't hold back when it comes to ageism in fashion and politics, and the detrimental impact of AI on our ability to distinguish reality from virtual reality. We talk about her time on The Good Place and how Ted Danson helped make her debut performance so strong. Jameela lays out why she believes public figures have a role in advocating for transparency in costs and recovery of major cosmetic procedures. She also makes it clear that she is comfortable learning and growing publicly, so long as she leads with care and facts.

Comedians Shapel Lacey (Three Dads Two Moms special, current tour dates) and Aaron Branch (Unstable on Netflix, The Kevin Langue Show, The Forehead Tour) for an unforgettable episode full of wiener stories.Shapel bravely recounts the worst gig of his life, the cheer-camp sex he may never recover from, and the moment a stranger declared that his penis is the joke. Aaron, meanwhile, brings story after story that make him look sweet, hot, successful, and this week's valedicktorian.Accidental grandpa kisses, cheerleading-camp injuries and school-wide scandals that probably belonged in a teen drama, Jameela tries her best to keep the show on the rails until Aaron challenges her to share a story of her own.Jameela's Substack is A Low Desire To Please, you can also find her on Instagram, TikTok and YouTube.Our consulting producer is Colin Anderson.Wrong Turns was created and produced by Jameela Jamil and Stewart Bailey.Listen to Wrong Turns on Amazon Music or wherever you find your podcasts.

Comedy troublemakers Dan Schreiber (No Such Thing As A Fish, The Museum of Curiosity, author of The Theory of Everything Else) and Andrew Hunter Murray (No Such Thing As A Fish, The Naked Week, writer for Private Eye, author of A Beginner's Guide to Breaking and Entering) join Jameela for an hour of friendship chaos, gig disasters, and stories that make you grateful for every bad choice you didn't make.Dan kicks things off with childhood misunderstandings, a karaoke nightmare involving his kid and the unedited lyrics of Grease Lightning, and one of the most catastrophic date-night micro humiliations we've ever heard. Andrew brings the bouncer years, the book festival where Jude Law mistook him for staff, and a zoo gig so bad the audience preferred to stare at fish.Plus, a Misery Loves Company story about a disastrous hook-up with a neighbor.If you like friendship that borders on warfare, ancient fish upstaging comedians, or men questioning their entire identity in front of Jude Law, this one is for you.Jameela's Substack is A Low Desire To Please, you can also find her on Instagram, TikTok and YouTube.Our consulting producer is Colin Anderson.Wrong Turns was created and produced by Jameela Jamil and Stewart Bailey.Listen to Wrong Turns on Amazon Music or wherever you find your podcasts.

Comedy powerhouses, Aparna Nancherla (BoJack Horseman, Corporate, Mythic Quest) and Eliza Skinner (The Late Late Show with James Corden, Drop the Mic, and Earth to Ned), join Jameela for a perfect storm of humiliation, soft chaos, and stories that instantly make you feel better about your own life choices.Aparna kicks things off with a micro humiliation involving an aggressively friendly date, a forced smile, and the kind of social panic only she could navigate with total deadpan grace. Later, she unpacks a Big Wrong Turn that somehow manages to include a disappearing audience, a disappearing sense of self, and a disappearing will to continue. We've all been there.Eliza brings her own signature spiral, including the world's worst party choice, a Disney meltdown, and one of the most impressively committed social misreads we've heard on this show. Together, she and Aparna form a tag-team of comedic self-exposure that warms the soul and singes the eyebrows.Plus, Jameela reads a Misery Loves Company submission that proves sometimes the only way out is to laugh harder than you want to cry.Come for the comedy, stay for the solidarity. If you've ever said “I'm really honest, I just like to tell it how it is,” then listen to hear why we're swiping left on you.Aparna Nancherla has her very first hour-long standup comedy special, HOPEFUL POTATO, premiering December 15th on streaming service Dropout as part of its “Dropout Presents” series.

Actor and writer Mary Elizabeth Ellis (It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Licorice Pizza, New Girl) and actor, writer, filmmaker, and "everyone's sexual awakening", Lake Bell (Bless This Mess, In a World, Harley Quinn) join Jameela for a gloriously unfiltered session of tiny humiliations and lifelong cringes.Mary Elizabeth shares the on set moment a costumer quietly asked if she'd braided her pubic hair, plus the C section experience where she tried to keep everyone comfortable by joking about the smell of her own burning flesh. Lake relives the day she introduced herself to Brad Pitt in a way that could not have landed worse, along with the colonoscopy story that still makes her sweat with embarrassment.Together they unravel convertible rage spirals, postpartum clothing fails, and the universal effort to look put together while feeling anything but.Catch Mary Elizabeth Ellis in the Netflix series Man on the Inside and Lake Bell in The Chair Company on HBO Max.Jameela's Substack is A Low Desire To Please, you can also find her on Instagram, TikTok and YouTube.Our consulting producer is Colin Anderson.Wrong Turns was created and produced by Jameela Jamil and Stewart Bailey.Listen to Wrong Turns on Amazon Music or wherever you find your podcasts.

Jameela welcomes actor Penn Badgley, with his Podcrushed co-hosts Nava Kavelin and Sophie Ansari (podcast: Podcrushed, new book: Crushmore: Essays on Love, Loss and Coming of Age) for a truly chaotic and hilarious hour of wrong turns. From Sophie's doomed West Village romance and Jameela's on-set “fart coffin,” to Nava's accidental Ambien-induced text to Ariana Grande's manager and Penn's near-collision at the Met Gala, this one spirals delightfully out of control.Confessions, catastrophes, and exactly the kind of laughter-therapy Wrong Turns was made for.Jameela's Substack is A Low Desire To Please, you can also find her on Instagram, TikTok and YouTube.Our consulting producer is Colin Anderson.Wrong Turns was created and produced by Jameela Jamil and Stewart Bailey.Listen to Wrong Turns on Amazon Music or wherever you find your podcasts.

Comedians Ian Fidance (Bein' Ian with Jordan podcast, Wild, Happy and Free special) and Nathan Macintosh (Tonight Show, Down with Tech special) bring two of the most chaotic Wrong Turns we've ever had: a near–loss of virginity on 9/11, a $600 phone sex bill, getting banned from a friend's house for porn searches, coke-fueled job interviews, and the childhood moment that ended in a full-blown piss emergency in class.Jameela tries to referee as Ian defends the Spice Channel “squiggle” era and Nathan relives the four-second first time, the broken bed frame, and the dog watching from the corner. There's also soaking, psychics, frozen Haagen-Dazs theft, and a surprisingly heartfelt debate on whether shame makes you funnier or just stranger.Jameela's Substack is A Low Desire To Please, you can also find her on Instagram, TikTok and YouTube.Our consulting producer is Colin Anderson.Wrong Turns was created and produced by Jameela Jamil and Stewart Bailey.Listen to Wrong Turns on Amazon Music or wherever you find your podcasts.
