EP. 231 — This Is Not Me, This Is Them

Things get weird fast as Kumail Nanjiani returns and Paul Giamatti bursts through the studio to confess all the experiments he’s gone through while shooting his films. Kumail then tells us what we can expect on his upcoming Comedy Central one-hour special “Beta Male,” explains what’s the first thing he’s ever observed, and re-enacts the process of how the stand-up comedy series “The Meltdown with Jonah and Kumail” got picked up. Suddenly, Jesse “The Body, The Mind, The Soul” Ventura appears to grant wishes and make a special proposition to Kumail.
