  Jared Freid and Becky Robinson

  Aug 19, 202642 min

  Comedians Jared Freid ( Table for One Tour , Walking Red Flag , U Up? ) and Becky Robinson ( Wild 'N Out , The Beasts in Me Tour , Entitled ) join Jameela for a conversation that somehow lands on a fireman worthy command performance, a dorm room G-string that never should have survived freshman year, and a hookup so dry it produced actual chalk. Jared's big wrong turn traces back to a 12-year-old's landline phone call interrupted by his mom, and Jameela's friend's home office habit gives the family dog a taste for something it really should not want. This week's Misery Loves Company comes from listener Paul, who learns a hotel fire alarm waits for no one.

  Katherine Ryan and Alan Carr [ReTurn]

  Aug 12, 202644 min

  Comedians Katherine Ryan ( First Born Daughter special, Tinsel Town film, The Audacity: Why Being Too Much Is Exactly Enough book) and Alan Carr ( Have I Said Too Much? tour, Alan Carr's Picture Slam BBC One, Interior Design Masters Netflix) join Jameela for a night of televised flops, dance floor disasters, and dignity going straight down the drain. Alan relives the sweat-drenched chaos of Grease Live (voted worst show on British telly two years running) and the New York toilet incident that left him watching a movie premiere in sunglasses he didn't need. Katherine remembers the audition that proved she has zero rhythm, and the boyfriend who brought her along as an unwitting third wheel on his own date. Jameela gets an electric slide lesson from Beyoncé that goes nowhere fast, and learns that telling Catherine O'Hara "I hope I look like you when I'm old" does not land the way she means it to. This week's Misery Loves Company comes from listener Taylor, whose birthday surprise arrived at exactly the wrong moment for her digestive system.

  Comedians Emily Wilson (host of Tuesdays at the Red Room, host of Call Your Parents, and currently touring her special Fixed: How I Got Rejected by Reality TV ) and Erica Hernandez ( Search Party , 9-1-1 , and Jury Duty Presents: Company Retreat ) join Jameela to trade their most humiliating near misses, from a snow day bus wipeout to a paranoid grilled cheese standoff. Emily revisits the reality show disaster that turned into her one woman show, and Erica confesses to a college fueled conspiracy theory that had her power walking sixty blocks to feed a friend who was not, in fact, starving. Plus, Colby discovers he has a latex allergy in the most humiliating way imaginable, in this week's Misery Loves Company.

  Laurie Kilmartin and Sydney Kane

  Jul 22, 202640 min

  Comedians Laurie Kilmartin (Jimmy Kimmel Live, Conan, Cis Woke Grief Sl*t ) and Sydney Kane ( Wife Material , Millennial Jenny , Barney & Friends) join Jameela to see who can out mortify the other. Laurie confesses to screaming obscenities at the wrong side of a protest, then rewinds to the school yearbook comments that got her shunned for all of eighth grade. Sydney details the make-up shopping spree that ended with four cops, an eight hour holding cell, and her entire college group chat finding out before she did. Jameela shares her own tale of being ignored at school, the group compares notes on strategically pretending to be asleep, and a Misery Loves Company listener's egg throwing scheme backfires spectacularly. Laurie brings her stand-up to London's Soho Theatre July 27th and 28th. Jameela's Substack is A Low Desire To Please , you can also find her on Instagram , TikTok and YouTube .
