Description

In this week's pandemisode, Anna is joined by the very funny (and two-time Tony Nominee) Alex Brightman! Before quarantine Alex was starring in Beetlejuice on Broadway. Anna and Alex talk all about their love of theater, their semi-famous dogs that get stopped on the street, and their fascination with Blue Man Group. But more importantly this episode is full of amazing stories about Alex's jobs he's had over the years and the work he's put into his career. And meeting Barbra Streisand. This episode is super inspiring, Alex has great advice, and he makes us all cry when he talks about the job that changed his life. (Did we mention the Tony noms?) Also, Anna and Ellen break down their emotional reactions toward LinkedIn and Glassdoor emails...and it's not pretty.

This is a safe space for anyone who has ever lost a job, left a job, or is sitting at their desks bored out of their mind right now! Based on the hit live digital talk show, "The Unemployed Show," where Anna and guests would wear pajamas every week and commiserate about bad jobs, this podcast is a more intimate look into the world of unemployment and underemployment. Anna sat in front of a camera on her couch for 'The Unemployed Show' for 2 years and then got a job hosting a show in front of hundreds of thousands of people on the app HQ. Is she the fairy godmother of unemployed millennials? Some say yes! Hopefully this podcast will inspire you to pick yourself up and get a new job, or stay on your couch and chill all day. Either way, you'll laugh with Anna and her guests about the insane things they did for work. Each week Anna interviews friends, comedians, and professionals about their worst (and best!) job stories and how they figured out life as an unemployed person. Oh and sometimes they call a stranger from the internet who is unemployed and in need of a pep talk. It's sweet.
