How do we find our purpose? Do we need purpose in work if we already find purpose in life? Yeah, we’re answering those kinds of questions this week, and we have Academy Award nominee Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor to give us the answers! Aunjanue tells us what it was like to work as an actor without receiving mainstream recognition for decades and how she found purpose in her work even when it felt like her path was uncertain. She also gives us the behind-the-scenes story of her viral social moment that blew us away! Plus, Sharon lets us in on what she thinks her hilarious purpose in life is — we really can’t blame her for this one!

ENCORE: The Art of Pleasure with Janelle Monáe
What is it about that Sagittarius fire energy that fuels such vivid, sensual pop music? We’re turning up the heat today with this Janelle Monáe encore. The visionary pop star shares her journey from burying her sexuality while growing up in the church to fighting the patriarchy by “responding to love.”
There are so many ways to feel pleasure these days, and this week we are talking to the queen of pleasure herself, Janelle Monae, all about pleasure, sexuality, and how music ties both those things together. Then we debut a new end segment called “This One Has Some Sweetness To It” where we ask Janelle some *spicy* questions about pleasure, turn ons, and The Obamas. We hope you’re ready for this one because things are getting hot!

ENCORE: Is Being a Child Actor All That? with Kenan Thompson
What’s it like to go from being a Nickelodeon child star to the longest tenured cast member of SNL in the show’s history?

From “Good Burger” to a small church in Pasadena, his journey is loaded with insight into comedy, challenges, and creativity.
We are back for week two and BABY, we are just getting started! We all know how good it feels when you find what you love, but what if you find it before you find yourself? This week we’re going down the rabbit hole on child actors and what my life would have been like if I wasn’t a performer. We’re joined by Kenan Thompson, SNL great and “All That” legend. We go in on how being a child actor affected him as an adult, his journey from “All That” to “Kenan & Kel” to SNL, and the challenges and criticism he faced along the way.

ENCORE: Why Do We Lie with Bowen Yang and Matt Rogers
We’re NOT lying when we tell you this is one of our favorites, which is why we just had to run it back for you! You know them from their amazing podcast “Las Culturistas:” Matt Rogers and Bowen Yang. We’re talking about lies — the white lies, the not-so-white lies, and the lies that get you caught red-handed.
We’d be lying if we said we NEVER lied. Whether it’s adding a few inches to your height on your dating profile or coming up with a fake excuse to get out of plans, everybody does it! This week we are joined by the hilarious duo, Bowen Yang and Matt Rogers to dissect all the reasons why we lie. We fess up and admit some of the funny/embarrassing lies we have told, debate whether or not it’s okay to lie while dating, and we admit how we can be a little delusional sometimes when we lie to ourselves. Even though we are talking about lying, we promise this episode will be filled with nothing but the truth… or will it?

ENCORE: Growing up on Disney Channel with Aly and AJ
We’re bringing back your favorite sister duo — none other than Disney’s own Aly and AJ (We’re feeling StarStruck)! This encore episode will leave you longing for the days of back-to-back DCOMs (shoutout Cow Belles!), As Seen on TV commercials, and of course, listening to your favorite Aly & AJ song on your mp3 player.
“This is Keke Palmer from “Jump In”, and you’re watching Disney Channel!” MAN what a throwback! Those were the days! There was something so special about Disney Channel; the TV shows, the DCOMS, even the online games were so much fun! But has it changed? Has Disney Channel lost its magic? Do we need to write a “Potential Breakup Song” for our former happy place? This week we are joined by Aly and AJ to chat all about our favorite memories of working for The Mouse and what it was like growing up being part of such an iconic network. Plus if you watch us on YouTube, you’ll see our version of making the iconic Disney Channel Mickey Ears. So “Jump in” loves, because this is one of our most magical episodes yet.
