Wrong Turns with Jameela Jamil

Bonus: Steve Agee and Erica Rhodes
Release Date: February 23, 2026

Episode Overview

In this bonus episode of Wrong Turns, host Jameela Jamil is joined by comedians Steve Agee and Erica Rhodes for an extended session of storytelling, centered around the show’s core theme: reveling in the most mortifying and embarrassing disasters of their lives. Eschewing morals and lessons, the episode is a cathartic, laugh-out-loud recounting of Steve Agee’s infamously disastrous “bath story”—involving high school debauchery, a projectile vomiting friend, and a desperately salvaged Mercedes interior. The camaraderie is raw, authentic, and extremely funny—if a little horrifying.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Why This Bonus Exists

• Jameela explains that sometimes the show collects too much gold to fit into a single edit, so this bonus mini-episode exists “as a treat—or an apology” (01:34).

2. Steve Agee’s High School Party Horror

• Steve’s Backstory:

  • Kicked out of high school due to his teenage drinking; his parents sent him to military school in Pennsylvania (02:05).
  • During spring break, he brings a friend from his military school back to California.

• The Party Plan:

  • Invited to an epic college party by his friend Jimmy who wants Steve to drive so he can drink (02:15).
  • Jimmy, Steve, and Matt (the Massachusetts friend) embark in Steve’s dad’s prized Mercedes, despite Steve’s checkered drinking history.
  • Steve swears to his dad he won’t drink—“No problem” (02:32).

• The Party:

  • “It was fucking crazy. It was like something out of a John Hughes movie. Like, drunk people everywhere, kegs. Like, it was pretty awesome.” (03:14, Steve Agee)

• The Disaster Unfolds:

  • Jimmy gets “obliterated” and is found passed out behind a bed.
  • On the drive home, Jimmy projectile vomits all over the back of Steve’s head and shoulders (04:48).
    • “Jimmy projectile vomits. No, all over the back of my head.” (04:48, Steve Agee)
  • Steve and Matt have to pull over and spend 45 minutes at a gas station frantically cleaning the puke, while Jimmy lies on the sidewalk, “crying like Philip Seymour Hoffman in Boogie Nights” (06:18).

• Steve’s Only Priority:

  • He’s not worried about the puke; he’s “absolutely terrified” his dad will murder him if he finds out:
    • “I didn’t give a shit that there was puke all over me. Cause I thought my dad was gonna f***ing murder me.” (05:36, Steve Agee)

• Round Two:

  • No sooner are they back on the freeway than Jimmy does it again—another full-body, full-force vomit over Steve (06:49).
    • “This time, I am now reaching back behind me, fucking hitting him in the face, trying to choke him. And I am screaming, ‘You motherfucker. I’ll fucking kill you. I’m a fucking dead man.’” (06:49, Steve Agee)
  • Another pit stop, another 45-minute cleaning session.

3. Collective Vomit Phobia

• Both Steve and Erica confess to having an extreme aversion to vomit.
  • “Vomiting is my biggest fear in the world.” (05:04, Steve Agee)
  • “I have it too… I can’t even hear the word. Like, the word gives me a reaction.” (05:08, Erica Rhodes)

4. Aftermath and Parental Ignorance

• Steve recalls the trauma vividly but has blanked out the rest of the night.
  • “You know what’s crazy is this is so traumatic to me that I remember it happening. I don’t remember any of the shit afterwards.” (07:38, Steve Agee)
• He later confesses all to his dad over breakfast many years later. His dad laughs until he can’t breathe and confesses he never noticed the residual damage.
  • “I could see spots in the leather from where the acid and the puke, like, ate. And I said, did you ever know? And he’s like, I had no fucking idea.” (08:29, Steve Agee)

5. Spiraling Disaster as Shared Bond

• The crew commiserates about how one person’s bodily function can trigger a “chain reaction.”
  • Co-host’s story: “My dog licked his asshole till he threw up, and then I threw up…” (08:53)
• Erica threatens to quit if “vomit” is mentioned again; Steve is invited back any time for more such catharsis.
  • “Honestly, Steve, like, come on this show however many times you need to. To get all of this off your chest. Thank you so much. It’s a catharsis, isn’t it?” (09:36)

Tone & Takeaway

As promised, the episode is unfiltered, raucous, and gloriously undignified—a living room-style comedy session where disastrous misadventures are celebrated, not sanitized. No one walks away with a life lesson, but everyone leaves feeling slightly less alone in their stumbles. If “dignity goes to die” anywhere, it’s with this crew.
