Earwolf & Jameela Jamil
About this episode

Actor, writer, and director Natalie Morales joins Jameela this week to discuss growing up in Miami, an accident at the opera which changed her life and her face, her frustration the lack of support her sitcom Abby's got at the network, their shared horrific experience with paparazzi, becoming a self-taught director, and her recent ADHD diagnosis that changed how she understood her mental health. Her new film Plan B is out now on Hulu.
