Summary
Comedian Rory Scovel (Physical, Babylon, Rooster) and actor, comedian, and impressionist James Adomian (Netflix, Comedy Bang Bang, Rick and Morty) join Jameela for an episode that goes completely off the rails, including an Alex Jones/Seth Rogen mashup that Jameela calls one of her favorite moments in the history of the podcast.
James's Big Wrong Turn is one of the greatest heckle stories ever told on this podcast: opening for Joan Rivers at a 3,000-seat casino in South Florida, facing a mutiny of elderly audience members, and discovering a side of Joan you've probably never heard. 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.

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.
