Aparna Nancherla and Eliza Skinner
27 november 2025 · 38 min
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. Lees meer
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. It's directed by Eliza Skinner.
Jameela's Substack is A Low Desire To Please, you can also find her on Instagram, TikTok and YouTube.

Lake Bell and Mary Elizabeth Ellis
20 november 2025 · 48 min
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. Lees meer
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.

Penn Badgley, Nava Kavelin and Sophie Ansari
13 november 2025 · 48 min
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.

Ian Fidance and Nathan Macintosh
6 november 2025 · 45 min
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. Lees meer
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.

Margaret Cho and Brandi Denise
23 oktober 2025 · 36 min
Jameela Jamil is joined by comedy icon Margaret Cho (New album Lucky Gift, All That We Love movie in theaters November) and social worker turned standup comedian, actor, and writer Brandi Denise (Vulture Top Comics 2024, LOL! Live with Brandi Denise, Hulu) for an uncomfortably funny chat about their biggest personal disasters. Lees meer
This isn’t a pep talk, it’s a pile-on. From terrible diets and onstage mishaps to the mortifying moments you can never unsee, the three trade stories that remind us no one’s got it together (least of all them).
Together, they and Jameela trade stories about growth, boundaries, and choosing laughter over shame.

Erin Jackson and Josh Gondelman
9 oktober 2025 · 42 min
Comedians Erin Jackson (Late Night with Seth Meyers, Grudgery special) and Josh Gondelman (Desus & Mero, Positive Reinforcement special) join Jameela Jamil to swap their most undignified disasters. Lees meer
Erin relives the day she was booed off stage at the National Mall - on two jumbotrons, in front of her parents, and the time she literally fell off the stage at her home club’s grand reopening. Josh recalls a Thanksgiving so disastrous it ended with puking in the tub before meeting his in-laws, and a college romance derailed by an overly enthusiastic Bon Jovi-themed care package.
Jameela shares her own humiliations - including breaking her nose on live TV - as the trio find catharsis in failure, fart jokes, and the fine art of refusing to let go of a grudge.

Bonus - Russell Howard, Judi Love and Grace Campbell
30 september 2025 · 13 min
We had so much fun with Russell Howard, Judi Love and Grace Campbell at the London Podcast Festival that we couldn't fit it all into the episode, so here's a bonus audience Misery Loves Company submission that we're calling "AKA That's Why Heather's Not Here", because "Tongue Punch My Fart Box" didn't seem great for the algorithm. Enjoy (but not around kids)! Lees meer

Bob (RuPaul’s Drag Race winner, The Traitors, NYT best seller “Harriet Tubman: Live in Concert: A Novel”) reveals their ultimate kindergarten nightmare and the least comfortable way to extinguish a roast.
