    Bob The Drag Queen and Mae Martin [ReTurn]

    It's summer, it's hot, we all need a week off from time to time, so that's what we're doing this week on the podcast. But we wouldn't want to leave you high and dry, so here's a ReTurn episode of our Premiere with amazing guests Mae Martin and Bob the Drag Queen. It's one of our most popular episodes, so we hope you'll listen, enjoy, and share it with a friend. Comedians Bob the Drag Queen (Hulu special "This Is Wild," The Traitors, NYT best seller "Harriet Tubman: Live in Concert: A Novel"), Mae Martin ("Handsome" podcast, debut album "I'm a TV," Netflix series "Wayward") join Jameela. Bob reveals his ultimate preschool nightmare and the least comfortable way to extinguish a roast, while Mae shares a secret crush gone horribly wrong, and perhaps the most incorrect way to use a spatula. Follow Bob the Drag Queen: https://www.bobthedragqueen.com/ Follow Mae Martin: https://www.maemartin.net/ Jameela's Substack is A Low Desire To Please, you can also find her on Instagram, TikTok and YouTube.

    Emily Wilson and Erica Hernandez

    Comedians Emily Wilson (host of Tuesdays at the Red Room, host of Call Your Parents, and currently touring her special Fixed: How I Got Rejected by Reality TV) and Erica Hernandez (Search Party, 9-1-1, and Jury Duty Presents: Company Retreat) join Jameela to trade their most humiliating near misses, from a snow day bus wipeout to a paranoid grilled cheese standoff. Emily revisits the reality show disaster that turned into her one woman show, and Erica confesses to a college fueled conspiracy theory that had her power walking sixty blocks to feed a friend who was not, in fact, starving. Plus, Colby discovers he has a latex allergy in the most humiliating way imaginable, in this week's Misery Loves Company.

    Laurie Kilmartin and Sydney Kane

    Comedians Laurie Kilmartin (Jimmy Kimmel Live, Conan, Cis Woke Grief Sl*t) and Sydney Kane (Wife Material, Millennial Jenny, Barney & Friends) join Jameela to see who can out mortify the other. Laurie confesses to screaming obscenities at the wrong side of a protest, then rewinds to the school yearbook comments that got her shunned for all of eighth grade. Sydney details the make-up shopping spree that ended with four cops, an eight hour holding cell, and her entire college group chat finding out before she did. Jameela shares her own tale of being ignored at school, the group compares notes on strategically pretending to be asleep, and a Misery Loves Company listener's egg throwing scheme backfires spectacularly. Laurie brings her stand-up to London's Soho Theatre July 27th and 28th. Jameela's Substack is A Low Desire To Please, you can also find her on Instagram, TikTok and YouTube.

    Chloe Radcliffe and Tone Bell

    Comedians Chloe Radcliffe (The Tonight Show, Command Z, Is This Thing On?) and Tone Bell (Survival of the Thickest, Coyote Versus Acme, Fam) join Jameela for an hour of bodies malfunctioning at the worst possible moments, in front of the worst possible audiences. Tone explains the fertility surgery that left him with an unfortunate mullet situation south of the border. Chloe dishes on the film et she left almost as toxic as the non-alcoholic beverage she was there to advertise. And a house party takes a turn for the kinky and extremely public after an under-21-year-old Tone Bell resolves not to touch the dirty ice. Plus, a Misery Loves Company confession involving a Hawaiian party, an airborne bikini bottom, and an unplanned night sleeping pantsless on a cardboard box. Chloe is on tour now and brings her solo show Cheat to Joe's Pub in New York this August.

    Tig Notaro and Caitlin Reilly

    Comedians Tig Notaro (One Mississippi, The Morning Show, Come See Me in the Good Light) and Caitlin Reilly (Hacks, Loot, I Love LA) join Jameela for a wide open, no such thing as TMI conversation. Tig's big wrong turn drags her back to a decades old showdown for Sundance Film Festival supremacy against a friend turned rival. Caitlin's starts on an all girls Catholic high school stage (fellow alum: Meghan Markle) and ends at a pool party where a white towel gave away way more than she meant to share. Tig is on tour now (tignotaro.com) and hosts the podcast Handsome with Fortune Feimster and Mae Martin, streaming a day early on Hulu. Catch Caitlin in season five of Hacks.

    Dylan Adler and Sabrina Wu

    Comedians Dylan Adler (Roomies, Netflix Is A Joke Festival, Edinburgh Fringe Festival) and Sabrina Wu (Joyride, Murderbot, Abbott Elementary) join Jameela for a full audit of who is and isn't a top, the case for Jameela's first fart in front of her boyfriend to be a dramatic rendition of "Hey Jude," and the precise anatomical boundaries of a cat's gooch. Dylan relives the party that was supposed to make him cool and the recovery backflip that followed, Sabrina reluctantly tells how they resorted to a crash course in Eastern medicine to cure a cat's horniness, and Jameela tells us why she can no longer listen to Charli XCX. Plus, competitive sleepwalking confessions, a 6'7" boyfriend learning Wing Chun, and an unbothered family of geese on Fire Island.

Lamorne's micro-humiliation is a classic of adolescent sexual mythology, complete with JD Vance-style couch love and a CPR dummy. His big wrong turn starts with a girlfriend's stolen phone and ends with him quietly backing toward the exit while his comedian friend [REDACTED] pulls out a gun. Chris was mid-bath when the boba craving struck. The pick-up not go as planned. Liza was one of the most highly requested backup nannies at her agency until one family failed to warn her about their plumbing issue. Misery Loves Company: a child psychiatrist confesses what happened when he tried to be the star of his first day on surgical rotation.

    Conor Janda and Oscar Montoya

    Comedian Conor Janda (Kevin Hart's Funny AF, Boys Club Comedy, his new hour Side Notes) and actor and comedian Oscar Montoya (Minx on Starz, Encanto, Drag Her podcast) join Jameela for an episode containing two separate threesomes, a case of mistaken Asian identity, and a definitive ruling on which city's population looks the most artificially generated. Oscar's Big Wrong Turn traces back to a college reunion with two old friends that turns into an unforgettable and very satisfying ambush, followed by a considerably less satisfying morning after. Conor's takes us to Fire Island, where a revenge threesome with a five foot four property manager somehow still ends in him losing. For Misery Loves Company, a listener's late night booty call text goes catastrophically, mistakenly wrong. Find Conor on Instagram @ConorJanda and catch him on his current headlining tour across the US and Canada. Find Oscar on Instagram and Bluesky @Ozzymo, and listen to him on Drag Her and Eurovangelists. Jameela's Substack is A Low Desire To Please, you can also find her on Instagram, TikTok and YouTube.
