Krystyna Hutchinson and Corinne Fisher (Guys We F****d)

Comedians, writers, and co-hosts of the legendary podcast Guys We F****d [https://linktr.ee/guyswefcked?utm_source=ig&utm_medium=social&utm_content=link_in_bio&fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQMMjU2MjgxMDQwNTU4AAGngZL9P5QaGmr1dRd8z1m768IGM7gnn-DvL69_GVVbYx6_G_lC4yi6PgjSiFM_aem_LYdyFsilEpKYF_5e1NHbcg], Krystyna Hutchinson [https://www.instagram.com/krystynahutch/?hl=en] and Corinne Fisher [https://www.corinnefisher.com/] join Jameela this week for an episode that gets intimate, unhinged, and deeply relatable in equal measure. Corinne shares what happened when she tried to set the mood on a COVID-era Zoom date with Post-it note talking points, deli container margaritas, and a candle that set her hair on fire. Krystyna's Big Wrong Turn takes us inside Hurricane Sandy, a flooding apartment, a boyfriend who promised to throw out his ex-porn-star's Fleshlight collection, and the moment she discovered he had not. Jameela, meanwhile, reveals that her inner self on psychedelics turned out to be a very boring white lady who shops at Erewhon, and recounts the full catastrophic chain of events leading up to her Good Place audition, including curling her hair with her roommate's dildo and spending ten minutes alone in a casting director's bathroom using her teeth as a wrench. This week's Misery Loves Company comes from listener Josie, who declared her love at a prom after party, spent ten minutes arguing with the guy that he did love her actually, and ran into him the next morning looking like Beetlejuice.

Ian Lara and Michael Blieden

Comedian, writer, and producer Ian Lara [https://www.instagram.com/ianlaralive/] (Tonight Show veteran, HBO special Romantic Comedy [https://play.hbomax.com/movie/67d7eac4-ad2a-4219-a749-f4f60ce26492], new free special Material Boy [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ioYYlx0rt4Q] on YouTube) and writer, producer, and director Michael Blieden [https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0088392/] (The Daily Show, Broad City, forthcoming Mitch Hedberg documentary) join Jameela with stories that will make you feel significantly better about your own life choices. Ian once decided the best path to fame was an original rap performed acapella in coordinated outfits in front of his entire elementary school. Michael once accidentally played a podcast that opened with "Are white people special?" to his Black driver and just... kept it on. Jameela once performed a full Sally Bowles striptease routine from Cabaret at her all-girls school aged 12, and was bribed by her headmistress not to do it again. Also: an exploding chili dog audition, Larry David, and a listener who learned that "Fiona" sounds like Italian slang for something you really don't want your name to mean. You can follow Ian at @ianlara on Instagram and TikTok and watch his specials on YouTube and HBO. Keep an eye out for Michael's Mitch Hedberg documentary, coming soon.

Kat shares what happened when she re-entered the dating world after seven years, including one encounter set to some extremely ill-chosen background music, and another involving a life-sized pillow of Michael B. Jordan and thirty-five minutes of shimmying politely in the background. Ava, meanwhile, shares what happens when you answer a phone call mid-hookup convinced it's a casting director, and what happens when the entire contents of a large coffee decide to make their exit during a Zoom audition with Mindy Kaling. This week's Misery Loves Company comes from listener Jess, whose very enthusiastic sex life managed to send a firefighter back into a second round of ACL surgery, and inspires the team to ask: "Should we have signature moves?" You can follow Kat on Instagram at @katbirdcomedy [https://www.instagram.com/katbirdcomedy/] and find her tour dates at katbirdcomedy.com [http://katbirdcomedy.com/].

Olivia Lee and Cariad Lloyd

Writer, comedian, and actor Olivia Lee [https://olivialee.com/] (Balls of Steel, T4, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno) and writer, actor, podcaster, and comedian Cariad Lloyd [https://cariadlloyd.com/] (Griefcast [https://cariadlloyd.com/griefcast], Sara & Cariad's Weirdos Book Club [https://cariadlloyd.com/weirdos-book-club] podcasts, Austentatious [https://www.austentatiousimpro.com/], and new book Where Did She Go? [https://cariadlloyd.com/where-did-she-go-pre-order]) for an episode that asks, where even are the neurotypicals? Cariad shares about her days doing character comedy, specifically her alter ego the Sanitary Bag Lady - a woman dressed as a bathroom disposal bag who screams at men about periods - and the night a man in the audience stood up to fight her. Olivia tells us about a perimenopause-induced sleep crisis, a celebrity neighbour's black market melatonin, and no memory of whether she'd dropped her children off at school. Jameela tells the stories of a lamp falling out of the sky and splitting her head open at 19, her caffeine withdrawal hallucinations during her own T4 days, and why marshmallow crocodiles will always be her #1. Plus high speed childbirth, music festival flatulence, 50 hour marathon improv psychosis, and a husband who was still holding his salt beef sandwich when the crash team arrived. You can find Cariad on Instagram at @cariadlloyd [https://www.instagram.com/cariadlloyd/]. Austentatious [https://www.austentatiousimpro.com/] perform regularly in London's West End and on tour.
