Jameela Is A Treasure

Jameela is making history and I’m thankful for her. Is she perfect? No. Do I always agree with everything she says? No. But the wide array of topics she covers and her compassion and bravery are unmatched. She is truly a treasure.

Jameela Jamil for President

I listened to the episode of Podcrushed where Jameela more or less interviewed Penn and I just needed more of her. She’s quick witted, so incredibly intelligent, seems to have a wonderful sense of humor — and those words don’t even begin to describe how amazing her soul is. I absolutely adore this woman and find myself more times than not nodding along as she speaks on various issues with her guests, or even outwardly and enthusiastically saying “yes” during these conversations. Jameela is astonishing. Her guests are superb. If I could give this podcast four trillion stars, I absolutely would.
