Adam Rose (LA’s Finest, Small Stupid Stuff podcast, YouTube) and Kevin James Thornton (Be Yourself special, Call Kevin podcast, YouTube) join Jameela to unpack a series of deeply questionable life decisions, including pet squirrels with boundary issues, cosmetic school as a financial strategy, and how to make it through a night in jail as a 16-year-old dance instructor.
Childhood arrests, disastrous career pivots, and the kind of dating stories that permanently change how you screen potential partners. Along the way, Jameela shares her own unlikely path to The Good Place, the strange comforts of shared humiliation, and why some wrong turns feel less like mistakes and more like destiny having a sense of humor.
