About this episode

Actor Jesse Tyler Ferguson (Modern Family) joins Nicole to share his proposal story and how it was hilariously overshadowed by Sofía Vergara. They chat about food as a love language, their shared love for musical theatre, and the aftermath of the "Take Me Out" Broadway show nude leak. Jesse reflects on the challenges of working on Modern Family during a time when there were no gay writers. Plus, the wild story of getting hit by an accidental squirting.
