The editing of James in this episode is pure comedic genius. Every single time I couldn’t help but laugh.
Neal being Neal !! We all love Neals Humor .
It's hard to believe that a woman who is so beautiful, well spoken, smart and accomplished could not recognize her value. I feel for her and I'm happy she's found love and support.
Honestly this was my favourite episode. I was floored at how she articulated feelings & thoughts I’ve had but couldn’t really express. So comforting to hear both their catastrophic thinking patterns; feel very seen!
Quite brave.
Another experience of "Every episode of Blocks is the greatest podcast episode ever". It's so great hearing people talk openly about their struggles. Jameela is awesome and funny. Thanks for an enlightening episode!
Very unexpected guest at this point I assume Neal Brennan has been close friends for 20 years with everyone. Next guest will be Beyonce and she'll flirt with him the entire time. He can't keep getting away with this
ginger bois up 📈😎
The fuck you on about
Agreed, it's always interesting, the variety of people Neal knows.
I love this comment so much.
😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉
Love this one!! Hearing her be so honest and open was great. Also the James Blake inserts were 10/10.
The cuts to James singing anytime he was mentioned had me rolling throughout 🤣
wow, i had the complete wrong idea about her. I was cleaning my apt listening to this and had to go sit down in my office and start it over to watch the whole thing about 10 min in bc this ENTIRE ep sounded like she was reading from my brain. id only seen her in the good place so its not like i knew much or anything but god shes COMPLETELY different from how shes portrayed on socials etc.
HUGE fan now, had no idea.
As good as others have been, this one is the most relatable for me. All of her blocks and her description of them are blocks I've been struggling with my whole life in one form or another. Minus the fame, money and success of course. This is my personal favorite by far.
Hope you feel like some of those struggles has gotten a bit better with the years. And I agree. It was a great episode.
Maybe not all but some for sure. I've always connected with her in that regard.
@@JaydevRaolShe's well known in the UK as a serial liar.
Yeah, I have no doubt that "trusted" tabloids owned by Rupert Murdoch hate her and call her a serial liar.@@robovac3557
@@robovac3557 Well, UK gossip rags are not exactly known for their veracity. They regularly drive people from the country (if not to suicide) with falsehoods.
The James Blake cutaways were friggin killing me🤣
i spent 17-25 attempting s/i around 10 times, i first attempted at 12, i never thought i'd make it past 18, then 19, and i'm 27 now and i'm glad i'm alive, thank you for making me feel less alone
❤
Glad you’re here. Stay well 🖖
Jameela is the world's coolest dork. Her episodes of Brett Goldstein's Films to be Buried With are straight up gold. I hope she is keeping clear of the bees.
This has to be up there with the podcast of the year. I am elated we have humans like her on this planet. Thank you for this Neal & Jameela.
An 'emotional go bag' is a great way to put that feeling and need to prepare to be let down
Delightful! Also, the editor of these videos is truly a Grand Master. Just imagining them logging perfect clips for each James. Not to mention the subtle differences in Block text speed. I might be over analyzing but I appreciate the skills in service of a bit.
As someone in recovery, this podcast has quickly become one of my favorites. Hearing these people discuss their pitfalls and open up and be vulnerable - all while being charming and hilarious and dropping references that I only know because of my time spent using - all makes this feel like this podcast is directed straight at my ears specifically
10 minutes in and this is already the best one. Jameela's blocks hit home in a big way and both of yall talking them through is so great and refreshing. Preesh Neal
I don't even know where to start on this. Jameela, for me, just went from beings a one-sided character that i never really gave much thought to, to maybe my favorite person ever. I want to simultaneously be her mother, her best friend, her mentee... I loved every word out of this woman's mouth.
The Data from Star Trek thing was very familiar to me. I always had trouble relating to other people and after a while just saw them as puzzles who could sometimes be mean. It doesn't happen often but when I hear someone say they are/were like that too, I feel a little less lonely
I'm a big fan of this podcast and this was absolutely one of the best episodes.
This song has been the best. Since listening to this episode, I've been singing a modified version for my 5 and 7 yr old sons and it's been amazingly helpful.
This episode was amazing
Neal: Assumes you didn't call back because of his faults.
Also Neal: (sings) "Nobody's mad at you, nobody's mad at you...."
I’m sure he wrote that song about and for himself.
Sending a comfortable silence of good vibes to both of you. First saw Jameela on NMTB and was smitten. She comes in and out of my entertainment life over the years, and each version of her is one to love and be inspired by.
“If someone’s trying to tell you how to behave, check your wallet or check your panties.” -Neal Brennan - Truth teller extraordinaire.
Glad that you two became friends. It’s interesting how we meet the right people at the right time
THE SUBTEXT OF THIS CONVERSATION! This is real friendship. Shit. They recorded it and let us watch it.
Dang. Out of left field hitting a home run. Stoked for this one!!!
Neal, I'm with Jameela on this one (Advice). Yes there is nuance and we should all be tactful. There is only some much we can say because everyone is on their own journey. However, you will never regret being honest and curious about loved ones. Having the difficult conversation is an act of love. Sometimes it goes the way you think it will and sometimes you get surprised (and they reveal elements you wouldn't even be aware of it you didn't have a deep/difficult conversation). Being brave enough to speak with people you love about hard shit brings you closer (because they begin to trust you more, that you know their shadow and still love them). I think if people removed ego more and were open to deep conversation the world would be a better place. Honesty is always best (if not now then down the path they'll get it).
I was never taught this. Neither through having it explained to me or being on the receiving end. I wish it wasn’t so difficult for me to communicate certain things lol
You are wise friend. I am trying to work with my wife and her *very traditional* Japanese family on this very thing.
The going.. is rough..
As long as you drop off the advice in a drive-by love expression, without expectation of them taking it or appreciating it.
Her speaking about low self esteem the way did was helpful to me understanding myself a little more. Thank you both.
I could listen to her talk all day
I love this duo so much! Jameela and Neal have helped me so much with me taking accountability for myself.
Nice! Another great episode. My applause is the little thumb-up button. Perfect Titania for this marvelous era.
Some of my favorite episodes of Blocks are my favorite because they remind me that I have a lot in common with people I've barely heard of or wouldn't expect. This is one of those episodes. I haven't seen much of Jameela's work, but it's good to be reminded that there are a few of us alien impostors out there just along for the ride.
I didn't know you guys were friends! I love Jameela Jamil!❤
Neal’s spitting that game in that intro 👏🏽
"Loves to tell everyone what to do."
[DING]
😂😂
"Some people really did just have an OK time" reminds me of a favorite movie quote from As Good As It Gets , paraphrased to "Some people have great stories involving lakes and boats and noodle salad. Just no one in THIS car...."
Someone I knew and I have been waiting on this one since it began, it's better than I thought it would be and I didnt know I would relate to so many of her situations.
Such a great episode, great conversation.
This is A+++ Jameela is one of my lowkey favs ill be more vocal now in support 🧡🍄🌻
This was beautiful, and I related to your story so hard.
It's interesting how people can have a problem with themselves like she does, but great how she's been able to overcome. She's always had a stunning face, that I've ever seen her. You two are fun friends to hear chat and should do more!
I really relate to Jameela on the "coat check" thing, except for me it's playing music and "being the dj" at ANY and ALL social gatherings cuz maybe if I'm useful I'll fit in
Same. I’m always trying to “curate the vibe” from the background. Plus the response people give cause I’m pretty good at djing feels great.
Oh my goodness, thank you so much Neal and Jamil. 😘😍🥰❤
Just an amazing guest and episode
😮🙌🏻🙏
I love the tiny nod to a ‘fuck-it’ list as opposed to the traditional bucket list. 😂👌
This is an adorable episode. ❤
This episode made me want to give Neal a hug.🤗
This is your best one yet Neal. And they have all been bangers so far!!! Time to quit!!
Love JJ!! love that you got her on and that you are so close!
So much to unpack in this conversation, I want to process this episode before responding. So much said, resonated. Also laughed my ass off.
Excellent episode, loved her in the good place. I relate to most of what she said, I feel the same way.
Shocked at how much of what she said is extremely relevant to me right now. Good episode
Jamil: suffering from imposter syndrome is really difficult for me
Steven Wright: great
Great Ep. I love Jameela.
Hall of Fame episode. Amazing
I have binged so many episodes of the podcast and kept putting this particular episode off because what could this beautiful person possibly have to talk about....holy shit how wrong I was! She is absolutely brilliant and articulate and deep. Wow
Love this woman and agree with her view on life. Just go for it! What's the worst that can happen?
Beautiful ending. I'd say it qualifies as art.
Great guest! Great podcast!
Another good one. My only feedback is when you have someone on you're super close to - you don't expand on certain things you might with someone you don't know as well. Like when she said legacy was stupid and Neal agreed - with another guest he may have said "tell me more about that" vs just agreeing and moving on. (I agree legacy is bs btw, just would have liked to hear them both expand on their thoughts on it.)
So many hilarious moments in this one. The exchange at 15:41 had me in tears though lmfao
again. pro editing. kudos !!
the James Blake inserts are golden 💯
Love Jameela’s take on her home. I lived with many housemates in a mansion in Boston. It was one of the best places that I have lived in.
Neal trying to make her laugh after she says some tough stuff reminds me to do the same/keep things light
Good episode, Jamila is so relatable
This episode was a great surprise. I would say my self loathing is almost an exact match.
🫂💛
Liked this. Alot.
Wow what a great and unexpected guess. Jameela has always been very lovely in everything I’ve seen her in.
Thank you Jameela. I get it, every word.
Neal…. 🤣 your prompts are getting funnier & funnier! Omg… I ❤ all the dings
"The way you were raised, emanates prey." Yes! Especially if you experienced sexual abuse I'm so happy she articulated this so perfectly, because though it's never the victims fault, but that violation of boundary or personhood, that loss of power, that gross violation, alters a person's ability to exude confidence or a person who fights for themselves (that awkwardness, not feeling normal, etc), so predators are attracted to that, I hate to say this but you end up attracting abuse, its the same way if you gave off a "Don't fuck with that person" energy. But with work you can change this.
That nobody’s mad at you song is stuck in my head now. On loop. 😑
Love JJ so much!
What an incredibly sweet soul she is😮❤
Hitting the nail on the head around 39-41 minute mark.
Really good stuff
The gametime ad read was great lmao😅
Wow this is great
Thank for this podcast. I get a lot out of hearing these successful folks that are still dealing with all the shit help me feel like succes is a good thing but it’s not a goal toward hapiness
What a fu***king good podcast!!!
Well that ended weirdly. But good ep. Very good ep.
Funny and beautiful ... and that's just Neal =) Jameela should be one of the biggest stars in the world
Jameela is my new and forever person-i-won't-ever-meet-but-adore.
Holy fuck, woman! Thank you. For all of that. I think you may have just changed everything about my life forever. ❤
I loved "The Good Place". Ya girl was fun.
Fun, witty, thoughtful. Dug the conversation.
I am eating a lamb curry from Jitlada right now while listening to this
Trip out!
Jameela & I would get along fo sho - I am an LA native, too!
Anyone who enjoys this episode and hasn't experienced The Good Place should go and do that.
Grate interview I hope she can do a ster trek cameo.
50:02 CAAAAAPPPPP!😂😂😂 C'mon Neal!
Thank you! Only time I’ve seen / heard Neal be so completely full of shit. 😂
To the editor of these episode: bravo 👏 👏 👏 so funny
I have no idea who she is tbh, but good lord, she is gorgeous. Very interesting blocks, though. I know PTSD quite well, just for different reasons.
isn’t she? I hate that her voice does it for me 😂
I feel the same way about telling people the truth.
Love JJ's voice. Every time she says c*nt I get an anime nosebleed.
I think I’m in love with this beauty! She be great as a magic nanny in a movie!
Or really in real life, she should randomly nanny!
In this guest order, the next guest will probably be me. I better start practicing my blocks!
"I just see a thing - you see a thing - and then I say it." This rhymes with Rick Rubin saying "It's cold in here" on Dax Shepard's podcast.
She seems like a lovely person.
She's so pretty
