Gareth Reynolds' Late Puberty Story (05:27 - 09:43)

Gareth Reynolds delves into a deeply embarrassing moment from his teenage years when he experienced delayed puberty. At sixteen and a half, Gareth lacked body hair, making him the subject of teasing among his peers. This revelation uncovers the discomfort and social challenges he faced during adolescence.

• Gareth Reynolds (05:23): “We all got a lot older. This group has had very bad decisions in our 20s.”
• Gareth Reynolds (09:00): “I should have said, no men in my family have any hair on their bodies. It's a genetic condition.”

The group discusses societal expectations of male physical development, highlighting Gareth's struggle with body image and acceptance.

Eric Edelstein's Embarrassing Flight Incident (16:11 - 23:19)

Eric Edelstein recounts a distressing incident that occurred while flying to Canada. After a night of heavy drinking, Eric decides to have a "hair of the dog" by drinking white wine during the flight, resulting in an embarrassing accident in his trousers without realizing it.

• Eric Edelstein (16:11): “I was very hungover for the flight.”
• Eric Edelstein (17:19): “And there was liquid in my trousers. I don't understand what has happened.”
• Jameela Jamil (17:51): “You think you've had a little pee that was left over that's made its way out? Or is it clear that it's come from the back door?”

• Jameela Jamil (20:03): “I run with this huge swarm of wasps, and I descend upon this crowd…”

The episode uses this moment to emphasize the often unpredictable nature of embarrassing mishaps and the importance of sharing such stories for communal laughter and relief.

Jake Johnson shares a comedic yet cringe-worthy story about a double date gone wrong. After quitting drinking in 2016, Jake seeks to maintain sobriety while trying to fit in during a night out. Attempting to use a weed pen discreetly, Jake inadvertently sets off alarms at the restaurant, leading to a chaotic encounter with security and fire trucks.

• Jake Johnson (30:02): “Right after we order, while they're having a cocktail, I'm gonna run in the bathroom and take a quick rip of my weed pen.”
• Jake Johnson (31:44): “I ripped a weed pen in the bathroom. I thought the alarm just went off in there.”

The mishap escalates as other security measures come into play, highlighting Jake's quick thinking and the group's ability to find humor in high-stress situations.

• Jake Johnson (34:05): “You can get away with murder because girls like you.”
• Gareth Reynolds (37:07): “We didn't let him in because he got fired from Daddy Shark after fighting three security guards and trying to take down a lovely vegan restaurant.”

Despite the tension, the story concludes without actual consequences, leaving the group in stitches over the absurdity of the events.

New vitamin water, zero sugar. Pineapple passion fruit is packed with vitamins. Just like the amount of peas we packed in that sentence. It's packed like your tote bag, the one you stole from your ex, or your overpriced tapa studio apartment, or extra rushed rush hour traffic packed like your calendar, triple booked at 5, of course. Grab a vitamin water. Did we mention it's packed with vitamins?

[Jamila Jamil]

Well, hello everyone, and welcome to Wrong Turns. This is a podcast where misery loves company. We are sick of the Internet forcing inspirational stories upon us and trying to turn all of our micro and macro humiliations into some sort of silver fucking lining. All right, we're tired of it. This is where we come. Not for inspiration, for commiseration. And so I invite my funny friends on to tell me their saddest or most humiliating stories. And with me today, I have writer, producer, director, comedian, and actor who's appeared in the Spider Verse trilogy, Minx, and New Girl. It's the iconic Jake Johnson. Hello.

[Gareth Reynolds]

And the co host of We're Here to Help.

[Jamila Jamil]

The podcast say that at the end.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Got a lead out.

[Jamila Jamil]

I was going to say it at the end.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Some good. God damn it. We're here to help. Available wherever you get podcasts. Not true. Only on, like, Spotify. Now.

[Eric Edelstein]

Whatever. That's a worst slogan.

[Jamila Jamil]

We also have an actor, writer and comedian who's worked on Arrested Development. New Girl. And you're the worst. It's Garris Reynolds, also on the podcast.

[Eric Edelstein]

We're here to end.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Yeah.

[Eric Edelstein]

Available wherever you get your Spotify.

[Jamila Jamil]

And we have a man who is significantly taller than my other guests. And I don't know why my producer wanted me to point that out, but I thank you. Well done. I guess. How tall are you?

[Jake Johnson]

Six? Four.

[Jamila Jamil]

Ah, in bare feet, yeah. But not legally disabled. My boyfriend is 6 foot 8 and he can get a blue badge parking pass if he wants one because he's legally a giant. We don't take the pass because obviously we would be.

[Jake Johnson]

Concert parking can be a challenge.

[Jamila Jamil]

Our third guest, who you're hearing, our very tall guest is comedian, writer, and actor from We Bare Bears, Twin Peaks, and the upcoming Netflix show the Burrows, Eric Edelstein.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Yeah, you heard Twin Peaks. Let's hear a little David lynch to start this.

[Jake Johnson]

Well, I'm happy to do that all day, but I glad you guys are sharing stories of trauma, friend, because that trauma can be mined for gold.

[Jamila Jamil]

And if you are falling in love with these men already, remember, as they have all mentioned shamelessly, they make the incredibly popular and funny comedy advice podcast. We're here to help. I've been a guest on it. It was one of my favorite times on a podcast. You are the best. Welcome. How are you?

[Gareth Reynolds]

Good.

[Jake Johnson]

Fired up to be here.

[Jamila Jamil]

Oh, I'm thrilled. So, given that this is a disaster podcast and it's also about bad decisions, I'm someone who makes, like, an extraordinary, extraordinary amount of bad decisions in my life. Where do you guys stand on this? Do you attract disaster?

[Jake Johnson]

Jake makes horrible decisions all the time. That's why we're here at.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Do you have to ask?

[Jake Johnson]

Yeah.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Gareth, you want to show your tats?

[Eric Edelstein]

That's offensive. First of all, I guess it says a lot about me that I don't think those are bad decisions.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Still, I don't regret that question about bad decision. What's the most recent tattoo you got?

[Eric Edelstein]

I don't. This is not a tap podcast.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Just asking a question.

[Jamila Jamil]

It is not.

[Eric Edelstein]

We're here to help. Wherever you could get. Just.

[Jake Johnson]

What's the newest one you got?

[Eric Edelstein]

Oh, a dog that passed away. Oh, insensitive. Wrong. Wrong. Shame.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Good turn. Oh, wow.

[Jamila Jamil]

That really did lower the tone.

[Jake Johnson]

Yeah.

[Gareth Reynolds]

That's Iron Clyde, by the way.

[Eric Edelstein]

The dog's alive and. What? No, no, the dog did pass by.

[Jamila Jamil]

You know that Sal Volcano once lost a bet to have a tattoo of anyone else's choice but on his thigh. And he now has a giant tattoo of Jaden Smith.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Is that true?

[Eric Edelstein]

Yeah. And then he ran into Jaden Smith.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Incredible.

[Eric Edelstein]

And he showed it to him.

[Jamila Jamil]

Yeah.

[Eric Edelstein]

Jaden Smith, I think was like, wait, what's going on?

[Jamila Jamil]

That is, by the way, Jaden Smith was 14 at the time.

[Gareth Reynolds]

By the way.

[Jamila Jamil]

Tattoo of a 14 year old so close to his.

[Gareth Reynolds]

That one didn't age well. No, you do. He's 18 now. He's 18 now.

[Jake Johnson]

14 in the T. Problematic.

[Gareth Reynolds]

But he's over 18 now.

[Eric Edelstein]

You go to the local news and you have him do that thing where they age him up. Like what? This is what he look like at 30.

[Jamila Jamil]

I can't imagine what his wife has to endure every time him she's.

[Gareth Reynolds]

You go to the tattoo shop and you go, can you put a mustache on this little boy's face?

[Eric Edelstein]

Hey, you put a couple crow's feet on this little lad, turn the karate.

[Jake Johnson]

Kid into a karate man, huh?

[Eric Edelstein]

Do me a favor. Grown up that lad on my thigh.

[Jamila Jamil]

And so generally disaster prone. Not disaster prone.

[Gareth Reynolds]

You talk about in. Do we make bad decisions?

[Jamila Jamil]

Yeah. Do you make bad decisions and does seek you out?

[Gareth Reynolds]

I'll tell you, this group has all. I'll be honest now. We've all gotten a lot older. This is a group of three men in their 40s. These guys have been some of my closest friends for over 20 years.

[Jamila Jamil]

Amazing.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Very bad decisions in our 20s.

[Eric Edelstein]

Getting better, though.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Way, getting way better. So significantly better. But when I met this guy in a building in Hollywood, we lived together. He believed he could channel Elvis Presley. Not as a joke. We'll go to 711 and do demonstrations.

[Eric Edelstein]

What does that mean exactly, Eric, what.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Does that mean exactly?

[Jake Johnson]

You know, I'd found legal weed, basically, and I was big into Elvis and I kind of thought I could heal people and it was my duty to minister to them. I laid hands on a guy. I'd like to think we helped him.

[Gareth Reynolds]

And if Garrett was the guy, what'd you do?

[Jake Johnson]

I was like, hey, man, there's so much more for you in this life. Come on, man. Come on, man.

[Gareth Reynolds]

It's not a joke. He really did this. He would go like, hey, man, cool it, cool it. And people would listen.

[Eric Edelstein]

I mean, it is 7:11. That's not a rapid care.

[Gareth Reynolds]

You gotta think about your life here, Jack. And you'd be like, eric, this is a crazy guy. I trust.

[Jake Johnson]

That's right, baby. That's right. Well, it's amazing what you can get away with if you're a giant.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Yeah.

[Jake Johnson]

Like, you can go up to someone.

[Eric Edelstein]

Not legally.

[Jake Johnson]

Like, they'll have a dog. That dog's name is Peter. And they're like, that's right. Come on, Peter. And they'll just walk away because they're like, we don't want to upset.

[Eric Edelstein]

That dog was not named Peter, by the way. They were just.

[Jake Johnson]

But the big galoots.

[Eric Edelstein]

Yeah.

[Jake Johnson]

The character was called Lenny.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Lenny. That dog. That example is mad. I like soft things.

[Jake Johnson]

Yeah.

[Jamila Jamil]

Hey, George.

[Jake Johnson]

Oh, I've resigned myself. I'll be playing Mice and Men when I'm in my 60s. Just every night waiting for that sweet gunshot so I can go to some bar and drink alone. I'm fine with it. I'm great with it.

[Eric Edelstein]

All covered in bunny guts.

[Jake Johnson]

Oh, yeah.

[Jamila Jamil]

All right, well then this feels like a good time to enter into Jake's story.

[Gareth Reynolds]

I went through puberty really late in the game.

[Jamila Jamil]

Okay, play.

[Eric Edelstein]

It's a great story.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Terrible. Rare. Honest to God.

[Eric Edelstein]

How late?

[Gareth Reynolds]

Sixteen.

[Jamila Jamil]

Any day now.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Don't have me take my pants off.

[Jamila Jamil]

Okay. 16 and a half.

[Jake Johnson]

Ish.

[Jamila Jamil]

Is actually quite late.

[Eric Edelstein]

Until he met Eric. Eric healed him. Eric put him through adolescence.

[Gareth Reynolds]

I was outside of a 7 11. Brother, you need pubes if you're looking.

[Jake Johnson]

Down, Jack, if you're looking for pubes.

[Jamila Jamil]

You came right like that.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Oh, Lordy, I need pubes. So no chest hair, no pubes, no armpit hair, nothing.

[Eric Edelstein]

Okay, pubes covered a lot of that.

[Jamila Jamil]

But I could have just said pubes.

[Gareth Reynolds]

I didn't have LP shine hair. Yeah.

[Eric Edelstein]

You'Re just powder.

[Gareth Reynolds]

By the way, did hair on your eyebrows and hair start when you went through puberty?

[Eric Edelstein]

That'd be great.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Were you completely bald?

[Jamila Jamil]

Loads of pubes, nothing on top. Crazy. Help.

[Eric Edelstein]

Ew.

[Unknown]

Help.

[Gareth Reynolds]

I didn't have any hair on my body. And we were at the era where guys and girls were starting to do the dance and I was getting some ladies. Well, we wasn't doing a lot with the ladies keeping it slow, but it was starting to move. And at my school we had a pool and there was.

[Eric Edelstein]

You were the fastest swimmer?

[Jamila Jamil]

Just the dolphin.

[Eric Edelstein]

Yeah, just.

[Gareth Reynolds]

And we were all sitting there and we were all looking at the cute girls, all the guys were talking and then this kid, Matt Walker, who had a full beard, full chest hair, everything.

[Jamila Jamil]

Pakistani.

[Gareth Reynolds]

No, no. And if he was as a white guy, I can't say it.

[Eric Edelstein]

Yeah, I don't think. We don't find that funny.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Jamila just said, I don't see the joke of that.

[Eric Edelstein]

Y.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Nothing funny about that. We.

[Jamila Jamil]

But we all come out the womb. Like, I had full back hair like that fell off when I was like two. But we come out.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Did it fall off? Does that just work for.

[Jamila Jamil]

Transplanted it to make my back.

[Gareth Reynolds]

It's currently on your eyebrows.

[Jamila Jamil]

It just went from my pubes all the way up to the back of my neck finally.

[Gareth Reynolds]

And so I'm sitting there and this big Matt Walker goes, oh my God, dude, you don't have any hair on your body. And it was not something that people were teasing each other about up until that moment.

[Jamila Jamil]

16 year olds have lots of hair on their body.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Some Do. Some are bad.

[Jamila Jamil]

Sounds like he has a thyroid problem.

[Gareth Reynolds]

He just. No, he looked like a real man, okay? Handsome, chest hair, armpit. Like the way men.

[Jamila Jamil]

That's fucking weird for 16.

[Gareth Reynolds]

It wasn't for the girls.

[Jamila Jamil]

Small at the time.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Probably 80 pounds. Probably 4, 11, 5ft.

[Jake Johnson]

Jake's also dyslexic.

[Jamila Jamil]

Why did you say that?

[Jake Johnson]

Just letting you know. Awkward.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Why you put all my digits on the streets. Had to be said. So I'm sitting there, Matt calls me out. I look around. There's a bunch of guys near me, and they've all gone through puberty, right? The conversation starts getting heated up about my lack of harem. And it goes from the way he does with guys from a zero to a hundred, where everybody is now talking about this hair issue that was not one a second ago. And I've known it was the case. And all of a sudden, Walker, who's not being a bully, is more. He doesn't understand what's happening. And he goes, none on your chest. And I was like, yeah. And then he lifts up my arm and underneath realize there's no armpit hair. There's a moment where everybody. All the guys are lifting up their armpit hairs. Everybody's got something. And so in that moment, I go. Rather than just say, fellas, I haven't gone through puberty. I say, no men in my family have any hair on their bodies. It's a genetic condition.

[Jamila Jamil]

You said it was a disease.

[Gareth Reynolds]

And they go. And I go, yeah, my brother, my dad. No one's got any hair on their body at all. And so the vibe changes. Rather than sad to confusion, sadness, where they go, what? And I go. And at that moment, I should have said, not accurate.

[Jamila Jamil]

Okay?

[Eric Edelstein]

Like any lie, I go.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Because I didn't like the reaction I got. I thought the reaction was going to be like, oh, weird. Anyway, back to it. But it was like, your dad doesn't have any hair on you.

[Jamila Jamil]

It was essentially like, oh, my God, you're dying.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Yes. Yeah. But it was more like, ew, worse.

[Jamila Jamil]

Because now they're thinking about your father.

[Gareth Reynolds]

And now they're thinking about me as males.

[Jamila Jamil]

Yeah.

[Gareth Reynolds]

And the vibe was like, not going through puberty at your age is normal, is never having hair on your body is disgusting.

[Jamila Jamil]

Isn't it ironic that the reverse is true for a girl? Like, if her arms were held up at school and she had one singular hair under her armpit, everyone would be.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Like, yeah, yeah, all right, we gotta get political.

[Eric Edelstein]

No, Jake, I think it actually was wrong terms.

[Gareth Reynolds]

I thought you guys said you were the shit.

[Jamila Jamil]

I'm just saying, if you'd been around a bunch of girls, we would have been fine.

[Eric Edelstein]

It raises an interesting question about gender status.

[Jamila Jamil]

Yeah, yeah.

[Eric Edelstein]

That's the end of my no.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Go on.

[Eric Edelstein]

Well, I just think the double. Can I. Can I. Is there a mic I can hold with.

[Jamila Jamil]

When did your fur come through? Or has it. Not yet.

[Eric Edelstein]

Fur.

[Gareth Reynolds]

My fur came through, baby.

[Eric Edelstein]

I'm still going through it. A bunch of them.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Not around 16, 17. The hair started coming.

[Jamila Jamil]

Nice, nice, nice.

[Jake Johnson]

He was the other guy in a tampon commercial. The guy you don't want to end.

[Eric Edelstein]

Up the bad tamp.

[Jake Johnson]

That's why people, rugged sex symbol Jake Johnson was the other guy in a tampon commercial. The date you don't want upgrade your life.

[Gareth Reynolds]

I was before.

[Eric Edelstein]

Yeah. For like, Tampax. And it was like the Tampax guy was like the guy Jake talked about at the pool. The hot guy.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Yes.

[Eric Edelstein]

And then Jake was the guy who shows up with chicken. He's like, hey, I'm sorry, I'm an hour late.

[Gareth Reynolds]

I just. Literally my whole line was chicken. And then he goes, upgrade your life. Because the whole idea.

[Jamila Jamil]

And that's not your wrong turn.

[Jake Johnson]

Oh, I was gonna say for his wrong turns, he's made wronger turns in this calendar year.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Yeah. $40,000. Wrong turn. Chicken. Rocket money. Rocket money. Rocket money. What's another one? What's another one?

[Jamila Jamil]

This time with Gareth Reynolds. Okay, your wrong turn.

[Eric Edelstein]

Okay, so I this is probably right when I started traveling for shows a lot and so I was flying a good amount. I was flying to Canada and I brought the hammer down the night before on white wine with my friend. So I was very hungover for the flight.

[Gareth Reynolds]

What age?

[Eric Edelstein]

This is not that long. This is sadly like 36. Yeah, about six weeks ago. 36.

[Gareth Reynolds]

10 years ago.

[Eric Edelstein]

A couple years ago. Please. You had your time. I think it's my time now. Thank you. Hi Jamila. So. So I'm flying and then so I'm nicely hungover. So I'm like, all right, you know what? I'm actually gonna like drink. I'm a hair of the dog. So I'm drinking white wine on the plane. I feel okay, but I go to the bathroom just to piss and as I'm in there pissing, my stomach does not feel good. But I'm like whatever. I'm like not concerned about anything so I'm in there, I pee, I leave. And as I'm walking to my seat, I start going, like, what's going? Like there's something like, there's like liquid in my trousers.

[Jake Johnson]

Oh, no.

[Eric Edelstein]

And I don't understand what has happened.

[Jamila Jamil]

You think you've had a little pee that was left over that's made its way out? Or is it clear that it's come from the back door?

[Eric Edelstein]

I really refuse to believe that I have shit my pain.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Are you sober?

[Eric Edelstein]

No, no, I'm not. I'm not. But I'm. But I'm not drunk. I'm just like shocked at this point. Like, I'm like halfway back to my seat and I'm like, did I shit my. How would I shit my. I don't remember shitting my pants. I don't know when I shit my pants.

[Jamila Jamil]

But also to have not had the sensation of doing exactly what we're talking about here, ladies, is anal leakage for anyone listening.

[Eric Edelstein]

And again, men can have it too, gender status wise. So I walk back to seat because I'm like, I'm not thinking properly and I'm like, I'm going to walk back to my seat and I'll. I'll sort of thought I'd kind of just like hover.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Ew.

[Eric Edelstein]

Yeah, it's not a great idea.

[Jamila Jamil]

Wait, and how long is left of your flight?

[Eric Edelstein]

Probably a couple hours. Yeah. So I like get close to the seat. The guy stands up like he's letting me in, and that's when I'm like, no. And I was like, no, you're good. And he was like, what? And I was like, no. And then I start walking back to the one bathroom on the plane and now there's probably like five people in line. And so I'm sort of standing at the back of the line and I. I'm kind of like. I'm like sitting, but I know I'm like, this is just getting worse. I think these are pants. No, probably a khaki. Okay, Probably a khaki. I looked great. So just know that. And. And I'm like, this can't happen.

[Jamila Jamil]

So sorry. Lastly, are you wearing tight briefs or boxers?

[Eric Edelstein]

Boxers.

[Jamila Jamil]

Holy.

[Eric Edelstein]

Yeah. Yeah. Okay, so it's bad.

[Jamila Jamil]

Yeah.

[Eric Edelstein]

So. So I. I'm like waiting in the back of the line. I'm like, this can't go on. And so I go to the front of the line and the person there at reacts how they would. And I'm like, can I get in there again?

[Gareth Reynolds]

No.

[Eric Edelstein]

And. And, and the guy's like, no. What?

[Gareth Reynolds]

There's a line, brother.

[Eric Edelstein]

Yeah, there's a line. And I go, I just left my phone in there.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Smart.

[Eric Edelstein]

And. And he's like, okay. And so then I'm waiting and then the door opens and I quickly dip in. And then I see his face as I shut the door, like. He's like, whoa. Like liar. And I lock it. And I'm not here to make friends in any capacity. And so I immediately just start, you know, doing the self diaper. I just take the. I take every. I'm banging around there like Tommy boy. I take off my shoes, my socks, my pants, the. There. The boxers are obviously toast. We were right. There has been an accident in the back. And. And so I take the boxers off, I jam the boxers down the trash.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Trash or toilet?

[Eric Edelstein]

Trash, not toilet. There's all those signs saying, you will get grounded.

[Gareth Reynolds]

The smells.

[Eric Edelstein]

It's not great. There's no. There's no winning. There's no winning formula here.

[Jamila Jamil]

Least of his problems.

[Gareth Reynolds]

I'm just hearing the story. I'm like, I would have gone probably toilet. Okay. But keep going.

[Jamila Jamil]

I would imagine broken the singular toilet on the entire plane.

[Eric Edelstein]

Oh, the idea of coming out there, doesn't it shoot.

[Jamila Jamil]

Shoot out the plane into the air. Hold on, hold on. I've always believed this.

[Gareth Reynolds]

You think planes are just having fly.

[Jamila Jamil]

100 like Dave Matthews. If something hits my head, I'm always like, oh, my God, was it from a bird?

[Gareth Reynolds]

Would that get cleared?

[Jamila Jamil]

Was it from Superman? I don't know.

[Eric Edelstein]

I think you're both right. No, I do think it goes to a storage zone. And then they.

[Gareth Reynolds]

The words, I think, you idiot, it's. It doesn't come flying out of.

[Eric Edelstein]

You don't know that.

[Gareth Reynolds]

I do know that.

[Eric Edelstein]

How do you know that?

[Gareth Reynolds]

Because I'm not a maniac.

[Eric Edelstein]

Oh, here we go. Another man.

[Jamila Jamil]

Sorry, there was a. No.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Okay, man.

[Jamila Jamil]

All right. Fuck you, Jake. Okay, so in my defense, there was a story of a. And I will come back to your story briefly, but this is in defense of myself, actually. Okay, but I. There was a wedding happening and they were on a big barge in New York, I think it was. And they were going under a bridge and on this bridge was crossing a coach, and the coach had registered. They'd had a problem with their toilet, so they decided to empty.

[Eric Edelstein]

Yeah.

[Jamila Jamil]

Their toilet into the water off the bridge, not knowing that there was a wedding party.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Do you know whose bus that was?

[Jamila Jamil]

No. It was.

[Gareth Reynolds]

It was Dave Matthews tour bus in Chicago.

[Unknown]

This happened.

[Jamila Jamil]

Yeah, it was in Chicago. Yes.

[Gareth Reynolds]

This is a real story.

[Jake Johnson]

Yeah.

[Jamila Jamil]

Yes.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Here's the difference. Difference.

[Jamila Jamil]

The bus isn't just all over the.

[Gareth Reynolds]

But the. The bus isn't just open. You don't take a on turbos and as you're going, it just flies out of the car. It goes to the little area. It's like storage.

[Jamila Jamil]

I disagree.

[Eric Edelstein]

I choose to believe that it just goes right out.

[Jamila Jamil]

You just go to the bathroom, close it. When you flush. I've always thought it's because they're worried.

[Eric Edelstein]

You'Re gonna go like, well, has anyone seen Dave Matthews? Has anyone seen David Matthews?

[Gareth Reynolds]

You just come flying out of a plane with your pants. Good.

[Jamila Jamil]

So I religiously close it before I flush because I'm so scared of it.

[Eric Edelstein]

No, you're supposed to. Well, it is.

[Jamila Jamil]

Hey, I don't know if I'm gonna.

[Eric Edelstein]

It is a powerful one, but it's. I think it's. For the disgusting matter going everywhere.

[Jamila Jamil]

I'm fine. Fine.

[Eric Edelstein]

Sorry.

[Jamila Jamil]

I digress. So.

[Eric Edelstein]

So I did not put my boxers in the toilet and. And cause a delay. I jammed it on the face of the trash. I at this point realize how. I mean, you've got to think like I'm derobing, taking everything.

[Gareth Reynolds]

It.

[Eric Edelstein]

It's 15, 20 minutes. I'm cleaning myself. There's now knocks on the door. Like there's just. I know what's happening. There's an energy. I put my pants on, I wash my arms. Like I'm going into surgery. And I open the door and it feels. It's like mutiny. It is like a large crowd. It's probably about 12 people. And everyone. I mean, I've been in there 20 minutes and I told everyone who heard me was like, I'm getting my phone. And so they all like are looking at me. And I just take my phone out of my pocket and I just go. I found it. And everyone was just like, brother, get the fuck out of here.

[Jamila Jamil]

I really admire the quick thinking that happened there in a desperate situation. It's nice for that crystal clarity in a sort of poor death situation happens.

[Eric Edelstein]

It was selfish acting. It was definitely primitive.

[Gareth Reynolds]

I was definitely a problem.

[Eric Edelstein]

I did. Yeah. Just like I'm here to help to.

[Jamila Jamil]

Be quite selfish in disaster to situations. Or do you think you are heroic? I'm a real piece of shit.

[Gareth Reynolds]

I learned you are.

[Jamila Jamil]

Yeah.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Why give example?

[Jamila Jamil]

Okay. There are several. One of them is that I. I was running away from a lot of bees. I was. I was going on a jog on La Cienega. A huge theme of my life is That I keep getting chased by bees and people don't believe me and they think I'm making it up, up. But I'm telling you, it is my final destination story. It's how I will end. Anyway, I'm going for a jog on La Cienega and there's a tree on that, like, island in La Cienega in Los Angeles. And on that tree happened to be a beehive that I wasn't aware of. I disturbed the beehive because I'm tall and I hit the branch, one of the high up branches. Yeah. And I'm standing there, I've got my music playing. I'm listening to Beyonce, so I can't hear anything. Ironic to be listening to Beyonce. And then a beehive gets disturbed. So then. Yeah, exactly. And so then suddenly this kind of cloud of black descends upon me and I can't really make out what it is because my music's so loud and I can't hear them. And then I pull out my headphone and it's like the loudest buzz you've ever heard. So I start screaming. I run into oncoming traffic. There are three lanes on either side of La Cienega and there is no green light for me to go. So I'm running into oncoming traffic with what looks like truly, just like an Afro of bees now surrounding me. I'm thankfully dressed like a ninja with my, like, truly, just like a. The amount of my face showing through my hood that looks like a. Like a cunt really is the only way.

[Eric Edelstein]

That's the medical term, right? Do you know what she's talking about?

[Jake Johnson]

Okay, it's medical.

[Jamila Jamil]

Yeah, I. Because I didn't want to get recognized while I was out running, so I covered completely. So they're trying to sting me. They're not being successful. I fall over in the middle of La Cienega. A car slows down, doesn't manage to like fully knock me over. I go down, the bees come down with me. They stay with me. I get up, I run. I run from what feels like, I think Wiltshire all the way to 3rd street, which is quite a long way. And then I'm running down 3rd street, they're still with me. They're still so pissed that I've just touched a leaf on their tree. And I see a group of people outside, like Toka Madera, which is a kind of club slash taco bar, and they're all smoking. And I think to myself in a split second, no smoke. No, I didn't think that the smart thing would be like, oh, smoke deters wasps. I thought to myself, they don't care about their lives because they're smokers.

[Eric Edelstein]

Kill them now.

[Gareth Reynolds]

You're right.

[Jamila Jamil]

I don't know.

[Gareth Reynolds]

I get what you're saying.

[Jamila Jamil]

I don't smoke. I don't do drugs. I'm gonna take these bees to these heathens. And I. So I run to. I run with this, like, huge swarm of wasps or bees, and I descend upon this crowd and then I get on the floor and I army crawl all the way down the street to creation, the juice bar, also very far away, where I then watch from the window as people are being like handbags, drinks, cigarettes. Everything's flying. People are getting stung.

[Eric Edelstein]

Oh, so they are. The plan is sort of working.

[Jamila Jamil]

I haven't been stung. And I, Yeah, I think I was responsible for, like, a lot of really bad things that day. I'm a terrible person. So, you know, that's. But you learn in your fight or.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Flight whether, please, somebody animate that whole story.

[Eric Edelstein]

Yes. I can't believe I'm saying this, but I handled my. My pants on the plane better than you would. Yeah.

[Jamila Jamil]

High five, friend.

[Eric Edelstein]

Hey.

[Jamila Jamil]

Dear old work platform. It's not you, it's us. Actually, it is you. Endless onboarding, constant IT bottlenecks. We've had enough. We need a platform that just gets us. And to be honest, we've met someone new. They're called Monday.com and it was love at first onboarding. Their beautiful dashboards, their customizable workflows got us floating on a digital cloud nine. So no hard feelings, but we're moving on Monday.com, the first work platform you'll love to use.

[Jamila Jamil]

And now we are back. Eric Everstein.

[Jake Johnson]

Yes.

[Jamila Jamil]

Will you please tell me what was your wrong turn?

[Jake Johnson]

So, basically, I quit drinking 2016, and we go on double dates, my wife and I. I think it was the medical community. I did that drunk history. And it's a little dangerous to be recognized in any bar pounding beers. So I'm actually shocked how much I like it. But we go on these nice double dates, and they're drinking my wife, and we double date with this couple. And I'm like, I've got the perfect solution here. So we go to this hip place in Hollywood that I hate, and I hate them now because how they treated me, the fascists. But basically. Take it easy, kid. We go there. It's a bar, hotel. Fuck it. It's called Mother Courage.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Take it easy, kid.

[Jake Johnson]

No, no, no. Was them.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Take it easy, King. So it's probably what you did, though.

[Jake Johnson]

Yeah, it is what I did, yeah.

[Gareth Reynolds]

They just responded to you? Yeah.

[Jake Johnson]

Yeah, but they didn't respond in a kind way.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Yeah.

[Jake Johnson]

But you were probably a beloved character actor.

[Gareth Reynolds]

You're probably getting scary, though, huh?

[Jake Johnson]

I did get a little scary, yeah.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Let's not. Let's not shit on the business. You know what I mean?

[Jake Johnson]

I use my size in a bad way, I admit it. But it's a gift of being tall. So my whole plan is that what I'm gonna do is since everyone else is drinking, I don't want to get cheated. So we go to this nice meal.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Because he quit drinking.

[Eric Edelstein]

Yeah, that's right.

[Jake Johnson]

Yeah. Cheated is the term I'm not here to get over.

[Eric Edelstein]

Yeah. This Business did it, though. Jake, you're not listening.

[Jake Johnson]

Yeah, this business, it's not easy being tall. There's a lot of short leading men that don't want a tall person next to them.

[Eric Edelstein]

Oh, shouts, fired.

[Gareth Reynolds]

This is.

[Jake Johnson]

My therapist has heard all this. So we are with my good friend Teagan and her wife. And Tegan is a rock star. She's from the band Teagan and Sarah, if you've heard of them. And she has this. This unflappable kind of rock star veneer. So I'm like, right after we order, while they're having a cocktail, I'm going to run in the bathroom and take a quick rip of my weed pen and then I'm going to come back for the entree. We're all going to be on the same level. I'll be slightly stoned. They're all drinking. It's going to be a joy. So I go in there, rip this pen, and there's like no stalls in the toilet. And then just kind of blow it out. And then this alarm goes off.

[Jamila Jamil]

Oh, no.

[Jake Johnson]

And then, then three security guards rush in to the Mother Courage bathroom. And they're like, it's him, it's him. I immediately, once the alarm goes off, I ditch the pen in the trash can. And then as they run in, I go, they're like, you're smoking weed. I'm like, I'm not smoking weed. I swear on a stack of bibles. Amounts. I consent to a search.

[Jamila Jamil]

But isn't it.

[Gareth Reynolds]

But he's also lying.

[Jamila Jamil]

Isn't the smell coming out of your mouth?

[Eric Edelstein]

Yes.

[Jamila Jamil]

So tall that it still.

[Jake Johnson]

And because I was tall, it was also way too close to the smoke line.

[Gareth Reynolds]

So he said, I pray on a stack of Bible. He's lying.

[Eric Edelstein]

I consent to a certain.

[Jake Johnson]

No, no, I did not smoke. I would swear on a stack of Bibles I vaporized the weed. Jacobus, you're in. So poy Nettlestein. Okay, so these three fascists come in screaming. And I'm a former bouncer, and I handle all my problems with love. Like when I was a bouncer.

[Gareth Reynolds]

It doesn't sound like you handled it with love.

[Jake Johnson]

No, because I was on the other end of the fashion. The first wave of fascism is security guards. Go to any concert if you're a tall person. They treat you like it's coming, it's coming. It's the first wave of security guards. I promise you this. I promise you this. So the guy goes to him, I'm like, I consent to a search. And I just started Loudly saying that. It's the same as when we got pulled over.

[Gareth Reynolds]

The one time I remember, that's another bad story.

[Jake Johnson]

Said to the police officer on the road to Vegas. I'm like, I'm thrilled to take a breath alive. And he couldn't figure out. And I'm like, I'm thrilled to take a breath.

[Gareth Reynolds]

You're missing a huge part of the story.

[Jake Johnson]

Yeah, well, that's for another one. That's for when we come back as the buzz on our first one. So the three security guards are in there. The weed pen is in the trash can. I have my hands above my head, and I'm loudly begging them to search me. And they're like. They're like, you were smoking. I'm like, I didn't smoke anything.

[Gareth Reynolds]

I was like, we don't want to search you smoke weed. Search me, brother.

[Jake Johnson]

That's the distraction. Once you're loudly asking for a search, then there's three in there. And then one came in and goes, he did it. We got him on film. At which point I turned to him with my legal mind. I could have gone to Gonzaga Law school maybe. And I said, maybe, Maybe. Maybe chose me. I'm a character actor.

[Gareth Reynolds]

You would have been a great lawyer.

[Jake Johnson]

They won't even let me play lawyers, but we're gonna get there.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Who's this leader fucking you.

[Eric Edelstein]

All right.

[Jake Johnson]

You in Hollywood. All right.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Everybody's keeping you out of jail.

[Jake Johnson]

Yeah, man. There's a lot of nuance here, okay? And all they see is this giant. So I play contractors and janitors, even though my wife fixes everything around the house. All right, all right.

[Eric Edelstein]

Thank you. You're in a good spot.

[Jake Johnson]

Thank you.

[Eric Edelstein]

You're in a good spot.

[Jake Johnson]

He does his thing.

[Gareth Reynolds]

He's done his job.

[Jake Johnson]

That right there, the loud.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Watching everything.

[Eric Edelstein]

I fucking.

[Jake Johnson]

Amy. Andy picked me up today, and that's why we were late. Okay. I want you to know I'm a character actor. I'm not late. You can get away with murder because girls like you.

[Eric Edelstein]

There you go.

[Jake Johnson]

Okay.

[Eric Edelstein]

There you go.

[Jake Johnson]

So the one guy comes in and says, we got him on camera.

[Jamila Jamil]

God, Gareth, this is such a stressful dynamic.

[Eric Edelstein]

Don't worry. Don't worry. Don't. He's bringing it in the middle. Don't worry about a thing.

[Jamila Jamil]

I love this emotional support.

[Jake Johnson]

No, I need it. Bless you. We both uniquely know with Jake.

[Eric Edelstein]

Yeah, yeah.

[Jake Johnson]

It's okay.

[Eric Edelstein]

You're not wrong either, Jake.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Thank you.

[Jake Johnson]

When the guy's like, we have it on camera.

[Gareth Reynolds]

I'm the fascist with him.

[Eric Edelstein]

Okay, you are.

[Jake Johnson]

Oh, yeah. Lucky you can act. Otherwise, you'd be a security guard at Mother Courage, which is out of business now because of karma.

[Eric Edelstein]

All right, buddy.

[Jake Johnson]

So I said, I'm like, you have a camera in a restroom? And then they pause was. Because there was like. You could have seen people's junk or whatever.

[Gareth Reynolds]

His wrong turn is bragging.

[Jake Johnson]

So I just go, why was there a camera? How do you have me on camera? The guy said, well, no, I mean, the. And I'm like. So I'm like, I'm gonna go back. I'm on a real nice double date with my wife. I'm gonna walk back there now. I didn't smoke any weed in here. I don't know what's going on, and.

[Jamila Jamil]

I'm not going to tell anyone that you're a bunch of perverts. Cameras.

[Jake Johnson]

Yeah. But there's something going on. So I go back. I'm extremely nervous, but I'm a trained actor, so I'm just like, I'm gonna get through this. They'll never know. So I'm just kind of sitting there, and I'm sweating and waiting for this entree.

[Gareth Reynolds]

How bad are you sweating?

[Jake Johnson]

Real bad. Real bad. And I'm quiet. And Tegan is just has another sense, so she's just kind of looking at me with this in other sense.

[Gareth Reynolds]

You said you're sweating really bad after.

[Eric Edelstein]

Coming back from high.

[Jake Johnson]

Yeah.

[Gareth Reynolds]

And you're sweating. And maybe she heard yelling.

[Jake Johnson]

Well, but this is the thing.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Doesn't take Sherlock Holmes to figure this one out. Something happened.

[Eric Edelstein]

There's been an alarm. There's been yelling.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Three security guys run to the bathroom.

[Eric Edelstein]

Someone comes out sweaty and high. Something's going on. You are an empath.

[Jake Johnson]

Yeah.

[Gareth Reynolds]

You, dear, have special.

[Eric Edelstein]

Did you ever dress like Elvis at a 7 11?

[Gareth Reynolds]

Because you get it, all right? So you're a little sweaty.

[Jake Johnson]

So I go back and I sit down, and I'm like, I got through this. I talked my way out of it. We're good. At which point I see three fire trucks slowly pull up.

[Eric Edelstein]

Oh, my God.

[Jake Johnson]

And I look, and I'm like, oh. And then I'm like, oh, there's fire trucks. I just kind of blurted out, my friend Tegan's wife goes, oh, yeah, an alarm went off when you were in the bathroom. I was going to do the dad joke of, like, did you cause it? And not realizing, I thought the alarm only went off in the bathroom. It went off in the entire Mother Courage facility.

[Jamila Jamil]

Yeah.

[Jake Johnson]

And there's now three fire trucks. So at which point I'm, like, realizing what's about to happen, that our double date has gone awry.

[Jamila Jamil]

Yes.

[Jake Johnson]

And I have to come clean immediately. So I just say, like, Teagan, Sophia, Jess, fire trucks are here because of me. I ripped a weed pen. I ripped a weed pen in the bathroom. I thought the alarm just went off in there. I'm probably about to get arrested or hauled out.

[Gareth Reynolds]

So fire department comes admit to your table.

[Jake Johnson]

I'm convinced I'm about to get arrested.

[Jamila Jamil]

Did.

[Jake Johnson]

I'd also just gotten the part of Daddy Shark on Baby Shark's big show. And I'm like, here's where it is going. From nobody cares about me to Daddy Shark arrested for recast. Yeah, recast, recast.

[Gareth Reynolds]

And they screwed you on that one then.

[Eric Edelstein]

Yeah.

[Jake Johnson]

Hollywood, Hollywood.

[Eric Edelstein]

You them, Mother Courage, Mother Johnson, the fascist.

[Gareth Reynolds]

We didn't let him in because he got fired from Daddy Shark after fighting three security guards and trying to take down a lovely vegan restaurant trying to.

[Eric Edelstein]

Shove over a fire truck.

[Gareth Reynolds]

So what happens?

[Jake Johnson]

So this is where my Tegan just laughs and goes, oh, this is about to be fun. And they're all just watching and kind of gleeful. And my wife's laughing, bless her heart. She, you know, you break it, you bought it. She knows what she's got with me. So then I just. The fire department's starting to walk around. Meanwhile, every employee is doing a horseshoe around our table to look at me, of course.

[Gareth Reynolds]

And you made a huge scene, Eric.

[Eric Edelstein]

Then I just say, you just misses Doubt Fired.

[Jake Johnson]

I know, I know. We're not even done with our food, but sweat is pouring off me. And Tegan just goes, do you want to go, Eric? Yeah. So we just walked out and escaped. No fire department, no arrest. Yeah, I paid. And I paid, too.

[Gareth Reynolds]

You know that part? Such a lie.

[Eric Edelstein]

What. What is he saying? He's saying he paid a lot.

[Jake Johnson]

I maybe sent my wife a Venmo thing, but I paid quick thing really fast about.

[Gareth Reynolds]

He paid. We all went to dinner for Derek Waters birthday. Everybody through. There was 20 people there. Everybody threw cash. Then we were. Eric goes, I'll put it on my card. We were at some steak place in Bourbon. Then I said, you know what? Let's stop at a liquor store. I'll buy some liquor for the house. We're in the car. I get a call from Derek. He goes, hey, man, you with Eric? I go, yeah. He goes, yeah. We're at the restaurant. He didn't pay. He just left with all the money.

[Eric Edelstein]

Wow.

[Gareth Reynolds]

So I went, eric. And then he went My bad, brother. Let's head back.

[Jake Johnson]

I totally.

[Gareth Reynolds]

We had to do the Waukeshim drive back and go like the wait staff. This is embarrassing.

[Jake Johnson]

Doing a big goodbye and like, thank you.

[Gareth Reynolds]

And Eric thanked every member of the staff.

[Jake Johnson]

Yo, yo.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Delicious mashed potatoes. This place is special.

[Eric Edelstein]

I guarantee you. He ripped the weed pen in that bathroom. Before that I paid outside.

[Gareth Reynolds]

And then you know what he said when he went back and paid. This guy is the reason this little son of a bitch kept me from paying. Yes. And then we're in a fight in front of everybody.

[Eric Edelstein]

Fascists.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Mother Courage.

[Eric Edelstein]

Mother Courage.

[Jake Johnson]

Yeah, but they're not open anymore, Jamila, Because I won the fascism law.

[Eric Edelstein]

Lost. Wow.

[Gareth Reynolds]

No, this is not what.

[Jamila Jamil]

The premise of the show is to pay the fire department.

[Jake Johnson]

They probably.

[Jamila Jamil]

By the way, they send them into town.

[Gareth Reynolds]

First of all, I want to apologize for bringing Eric. This is not the premise of the show. It's not called I won. It's called wrong turns.

[Eric Edelstein]

Right turns.

[Gareth Reynolds]

You tried to turn yours. It's not right turns.

[Eric Edelstein]

Right turns.

[Gareth Reynolds]

I won. That was a wrong turn that you made.

[Jake Johnson]

I won. Three lefts make a right.

[Gareth Reynolds]

That's the premise of this show.

[Jake Johnson]

Wrong turn that you turn right. You don't keep going the wrong way. You turn three times left, and then you keep going straight. And then those fashions are out of business.

[Gareth Reynolds]

First of all, I want to say I am so sorry for your parents. Could you imagine raising a kid? Like, imagine his fifth grade teacher.

[Eric Edelstein]

Oh.

[Jake Johnson]

Oh, yeah.

[Gareth Reynolds]

Imagine the parents. This logic. Wrong turns make them right.

[Eric Edelstein]

I didn't get a D. The system.

[Jake Johnson]

Got a D. You're right. Yeah. Geometry.

[Eric Edelstein]

Yeah.

[Jake Johnson]

There's a fact. Fascist.

[Eric Edelstein]

Yeah, There's a fascist.

[Jake Johnson]

Dear old work platform. It's not you, it's us. Actually, it is you. Endless onboarding, constant IT bottlenecks. We've had enough. We need a platform that just gets us. And to be honest, we've met someone new. They're called Monday.com and it was love at first. Onboarding. Their beautiful dashboards, their customizable workflows got us floating on a digital cloud nine. So no hard feelings, but we're moving on. Monday.com the first work platform you'll love to use.
