Bob the Drag Queen and Mae Martin
We can think of no better way to launch a podcast than with our first two guests: Mae Martin and Bob the Drag Queen. Mae (Handsome podcast, debut album “I’m a TV,” and upcoming Netflix series “Wayward”) shares their secret crush gone horribly wrong, and perhaps the most incorrect way to use a spatula. Bob (RuPaul’s Drag Race winner, The Traitors, NYT best seller “Harriet Tubman: Live in Concert: A Novel”) reveals their ultimate kindergarten nightmare and the least comfortable way to extinguish a roast.If you have a Wrong Turn of your own to share with Jameela, email a voice memo to PersonalDisasterStories@gmail.com, and we may include it in a future episode!Jameela is on Instagram @jameelajamil and TikTok @jameelajamil.
