Comedian and writer <a href="https://www.instagram.com/youracquaintancejessiklein/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Jessi Klein</a> (Big Mouth, Inside Amy Schumer, I’ll Show Myself Out) and comedian <a href="https://linktr.ee/traecrowder" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Trae Crowder</a> (The Liberal Redneck Manifesto, Trash Daddy) join Jameela Jamil to unpack a lifetime of exquisitely timed social misfires, celebrity encounters gone wrong, and the unique horror of realizing you may have accidentally discouraged a bunch of people who later became extremely famous.Jessi confesses to being Clare Danes’ first hater, gently warning a pre-My So-Called Life middle schooler that acting might not be a practical career choice, then doubling down years later by encouraging Mark Ronson to stay in college instead of becoming a DJ. Things only escalate from there, including an Ethan Hawke missed connection that still haunts her soul.Trae shares his own catalogue of humiliation, from confidently announcing “I was on Bill Maher” to Tim Robbins with no follow-up, to screaming his friend GABE’s name across a room full of A-list celebrities, to destroying his kids’ new drone in front of an elderly father-in-law who immediately climbs a tree to retrieve it while silently judging him.Along the way, Jameela recounts freezing into a full-body malfunction while meeting Whitney Cummings, and why sometimes the worst part of a sympathetic interaction is knowing you’ll definitely have to see that person again.No villains. No winners. Just deeply relatable micro-humiliations, permanent psychic damage, and the long tail of regret.Jessi Klein’s book <a href="https://www.harpercollins.com/products/ill-show-myself-out-jessi-klein?variant=40651074240546" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">I’ll Show Myself Out </a>is available now, and she co-hosts the podcast <a href="https://www.instagram.com/heretomakefriendspod" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Here to Make Friends</a>.Trae Crowder’s stand-up special <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VULUOEy-Ro8" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Trash Daddy</a> is streaming on YouTube, and his books <a href="https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/The-Liberal-Redneck-Manifesto/Trae-Crowder/9781501160400" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Liberal Redneck Manifesto</a> and <a href="https://www.harpercollinsfocus.com/9781404117549/round-here-and-over-yonder/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Round Here and Over Yonder </a>are out now.Jameela's Substack is <a href="https://jameelajamil.substack.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">A Low Desire To Please</a>, you can also find her on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/jameelajamil/?hl=en" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a>, <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@jameelajamil?lang=en" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">TikTok</a> and <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@jameelajamil" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">YouTube</a>.Our consulting producer is <a href="https://www.colinanderson.info/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Colin Anderson</a>.Wrong Turns was created and produced by Jameela Jamil and Stewart Bailey.Listen to Wrong Turns on <a href="https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/10e6e231-6e0d-466d-b86b-1935e1a97039/wrong-turns-with-jameela-jamil?ref_=dmm_brd_pgr_us_plc_ooh_ig_org_new_ooh_wt_" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Amazon Music</a> or wherever you find your podcasts.<hr> Hosted on Acast.
