Ian Lara and Michael Blieden

Comedian, writer, and producer Ian Lara (Tonight Show veteran, HBO special Romantic Comedy, new free special Material Boy on YouTube) and writer, producer, and director Michael Blieden (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.

And book now to see Wrong Turns with Jameela Jamil live at the 2026 Netflix Is a Joke Festival with guests: Lamorne Morris, Liza Treyger & Chris Flemming.

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.
