Dinner’s on Me with Jesse Tyler Ferguson

CHELSEA PERETTI — leaving ‘Parks & Recreation’ and cancel culture

"Brooklyn Nine Nine" star Chelsea Peretti joins the show. Over buttery biscuits and shrimp &amp; grits, Peretti tells me about her foray into directing with her feature film directorial debut "First Time Female Director," why it was scary to leave "Parks &amp; Rec," and how crop-dusting jokes played a role in her early comedy. This episode was recorded at All Day Baby in Silver Lake, CA.

I’m breaking bread with big-name friends—old and new—for a delicious meal and candid convos that can only happen over a glass of wine. We're getting out of the studio and into my favorite restaurants across Los Angeles and New York City with people like Julie Bowen, Kristen Bell, Fred Armisen, Jesse Williams, Niecy Nash-Betts, and so many more. I know, a celebrity-interview podcast, who’s doing that? No one. Which is why I needed to.
 
We’ll get vulnerable about everything from relationships and family history, to mental health and imposter syndrome. We’ll laugh about my attempted modeling career and being starstruck by Beyoncé. Look, am I saying a chocolate soufflé is going to get me to reveal all my secrets? Yeah. Yeah, I am. So, join me… dinner’s on me.
