Summary

In this high-energy episode of The Commercial Break, Bryan and Krissy sit down with the unstoppable Leslie Jones, comedian, Emmy-nominated actress, and all-around force of nature. Leslie brings her trademark honesty, fire, and razor-sharp wit as the conversation jumps from her early days in stand-up to the unexpected turns of her career, including Saturday Night Live, blockbuster films, and her move into hosting and commentary. Leslie opens up about finding her comedic voice, navigating the industry with resilience and humor, and why authenticity remains her secret weapon. She shares behind-the-scenes stories that are equal parts hilarious and revealing, riffs with Bryan and Krissy like they’ve been friends for years, and drops genuine wisdom about creativity, confidence, and staying true to yourself even when the world tries to put you in a box.
