Rick Glassman

Earwolf & Jameela Jamil
About this episode

Jameela is joined by actor & comedian Rick Glassman (Undateable, As We See It and the Take Your Shoes Off podcast) for a vulnerable & fun conversation about life, comedy and his superpower: honesty. The two discuss his later in life neurodivergent diagnosis, his personal experience with autism and those uncomfortable & awkward moments of life that we should all embrace. You'll hear stories about masking, BDSM consent, societal expectations and social norms upended and plenty more (no pants!) talk.
