Description
I’m breaking bread with big-name friends—old and new—for a delicious meal and candid convos that can only happen over a glass of wine. We're getting out of the studio and into my favorite restaurants across Los Angeles and New York City with people like Julie Bowen, Kristen Bell, Fred Armisen, Jesse Williams, Niecy Nash-Betts, and so many more. I know, a celebrity-interview podcast, who’s doing that? No one. Which is why I needed to.
We’ll get vulnerable about everything from relationships and family history, to mental health and imposter syndrome. We’ll laugh about my attempted modeling career and being starstruck by Beyoncé. Look, am I saying a chocolate soufflé is going to get me to reveal all my secrets? Yeah. Yeah, I am. So, join me… dinner’s on me.
Dinner’s on Me is a production of Sony Music Entertainment and A Kid Named Beckett Productions.

'first openly gay character on tv',? ? Will & Grace, Modern Family, Schitt's Creek etc
awww Im so sorry for the loss of your dear friend. Hugs
There's nothing quite like 'Dinner's On Me', the conversations are so frank, open & yet intimate & interesting, I look forward to who Jesse will be talking to every week.
😱 please edit out "Like!" I hate the chronic over use of that damn word 😱😱😱😱
can the word "like" be eliminated from the vocabulary of American women?, or couldn't this have been done in the edit?, halfway through I was at meltdown 😱 from 'like, like, like', I so admire Awakwafina but the constant repetition made this pod unlistenable
I love being a welcome guest via your podcast to your conversations with all these interesting, amazing, intelligent & talented people ✨️🥗🥙🍾🍜🍽
I want an episode with Ty Burrell. 😭💖

🙂 absolutely delighted to have found this podcast, what a wonderful idea to have created the simple & genuine format of sharing a meal & conversation with those in 'the business of show', to hear these talented people share their honesty, openess, struggles, vulnerabilities, life stories, loves, losses, tumult, tragedies, courage & triumphs is astonishing & life affirming, & a testament to their, & your, decency, humanity & artistry 🫂
Love me some Tracee Ellis Ross. Nice to hear a person during their everyday life, it humanizes them. And she seems to like food like I like food, both greedy...lol.
