Description

This week we have the one & only hilarious Jessica Kirson (Disgusting Hawk Podcast, Relatively Sane Podcast) on the podcast! Jessica is a professional comedian now, but before? She worked in retail, she bartended, and she almost became a therapist. She had all the odd jobs in her 20s and we're so lucky to have learned about them on this episode. But leave it to her grandmother to tell her she needed to become a comedian. (And you listen to your grandmother!) And because she's a Jew you know Anna and Jessica had to catch up about their camp days, because that's step 1 in Jewish geography. We talk about her family full of showbiz pros and how she came up with all the silly characters she plays in her act. It's a super fun episode and it feels like we've known each other for years! Ellen and Anna celebrate the one year anniversary of the day they were laid off from their job on Valentine's Day and share their memories of what happened to them that day. It's bittersweet! Don't forget to follow Jessica Kirson (@JessicaKirson) on social, and if you wanna see the video? Patreon.com/unemployedpodcast.com - PLEASE RATE, REVIEW, SUBSCRIBE! Thanks

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.
