Show Notes
Jameela Jamil has basically lived multiple lifetimes in one. She’s been a DJ, a radio show host, and a model. She also founded I Weigh and hosts the I Weigh with Jameela Jamil podcast. And if that wasn’t enough, she starred in amazing TV shows like “The Good Place” and “She-Hulk Attorney at Law.” Jameela shares with me the wild journey that got her to “The Good Place,” her first-ever acting role (!!) It was so incredible to meet someone whose life has also been changed forever by a Mike Schur TV show. Plus, Jameela shares why her new podcast Bad Dates is covering her “misery carbon footprint” by making people laugh.
