We can think of no better way to launch a podcast than with our first two guests: Mae Martin and Bob the Drag Queen. Mae (Handsome podcast, debut album “I’m a TV” and upcoming Netflix series “Wayward”) shares their secret crush gone horribly wrong, and perhaps the most incorrect way to use a spatula. 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.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.Listen to Wrong Turns on Amazon Music or wherever you find your podcasts.

hey I love your podcast it is funny and very informative, and to hear people's real stories is so refreshing... I was that skinny white woman and I hated my body I was eating every 2 hours not just to try and gain weight but I was always hungry , I didn't start putting on weight till my late 20's and each pound I put on I was feeling more and more happier and I am still over weight and even when a doctor suggests that I should lose weight ,I go into a rant of how losing weight would effect me

Please let your guests talk a bit too. And also please stop interrupting them. Sometimes it gets really painful to listen. You just get into this spiral and can’t stop talking.

I first heard of Amanda Montell in her previous episode with Jameela and have become her fan ever since... or maybe is just Halo Effect?

Such a wonderful conversation. It's been a while since the last time I knew about Sophie Hagen in The Guilty Feminist. Her book sounds amazing.

imagine censuring a word in the title when you actually want to have an honest, much needed conversation about a toxic industry and about healthier options.

it stiles me that this spike in popularity of diabetic drugs amongst the financial elite is coming on the heels of what (from my perspective) was the biggest global outrage over just the cost of insulin in the us compared to other countries. is this new fad normalizing high prices for these lifesaving drugs...AGAIN?

I got she brings Mary Cain onto the show. I saw her YouTube video on how Nike shamed her body and ruined her chances of becoming the world's greatest runner when they recruited her onto their team

I've been on depression and anxiety meds since junior year of high school (I'm going to graduate with my B.A. in the fall). Thank you Jameela, for sharing your experiences and helping other people feel comfortable with what they need to do for themselves. I love you.
