Olivia Lee and Cariad Lloyd

Writer, comedian, and actor Olivia Lee (Balls of Steel, T4, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno) and writer, actor, podcaster, and comedian Cariad Lloyd (Griefcast, Sara & Cariad's Weirdos Book Club podcasts, Austentatious, and new book Where Did She Go?) for an episode that asks, where even are the neurotypicals?

Cariad shares about her days doing character comedy, specifically her alter ego the Sanitary Bag Lady - a woman dressed as a bathroom disposal bag who screams at men about periods - and the night a man in the audience stood up to fight her.

Olivia tells us about a perimenopause-induced sleep crisis, a celebrity neighbour's black market melatonin, and no memory of whether she'd dropped her children off at school.

Jameela tells the stories of a lamp falling out of the sky and splitting her head open at 19, her caffeine withdrawal hallucinations during her own T4 days, and why marshmallow crocodiles will always be her #1.

Plus high speed childbirth, music festival flatulence, 50 hour marathon improv psychosis, and a husband who was still holding his salt beef sandwich when the crash team arrived.

You can find Cariad on Instagram at @cariadlloyd. Austentatious perform regularly in London's West End and on tour. Cariad's new children's book Where Did She Go? is out in May 2026 and available for pre-order now.

You can find Olivia on Instagram at @olivialeetv. Her special, Mindful Mum "was the first album of its kind, featuring x-rated angry meditation tracks." She is currently performing live comedy, writing scripts and staying away from Planet Organic.

Jameela's Substack is A Low Desire To Please, you can also find her on Instagram, TikTok and YouTube.

Our consulting producer is Colin Anderson.

Wrong Turns was created and produced by Jameela Jamil and Stewart Bailey.
