Frankie Quiñones and Steph Tolev

Comedians Steph Tolev (Hacks, Filth Queen on Netflix) and Frankie Quiñones (This Fool on Hulu, What We Do in the Shadows) join Jameela Jamil for a tour through humiliation, betrayal, and stories that should never be told in public but absolutely must be.

Steph recounts a series of escalating disasters, including waking up extremely drunk in a basement during a hookup gone wrong, a teenage escape attempt that leaves her hanging from a fence “like a muppet” in front of thousands of witnesses, and a reminder that bad clothing choices can ruin your life. Frankie shares his own experiences with public embarrassment and the particular horror of bombing onstage in front of the worst possible audiences.

Along the way, Jameela explains why stand-up comedy is the true front line of entertainment, relives the uniquely painful betrayal of a friend refusing to give you a ride home (with celebrity consequences), and tells the story of her own dog jumping into Conan O’Brien’s pool at exactly the wrong moment.

No lessons learned. No dignity recovered. Just lifelong cringe, lovingly unpacked.

Steph Tolev’s Netflix special Filth Queen is streaming now, and you can follow her on tour worldwide. Frankie Quiñones stars in This Fool and What We Do in the Shadows and is the creator of CholoFit.

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.
