Description

This week on the podcast we have Anna's good friend, the hilarious comedian Becky Chicoine (Girls With Brown Hair). Becky and Anna talk a lot about their moms, their workouts, and then deep dive into Becky's work history. From her first job as a "homemaker" at a nursing home (their term not ours) where sometimes people died, to working in accounting (but falling asleep at the desk), to working in a box factory but got in trouble for talking to a friend, to working in restaurants, to writing and doing comedy! It's a journey for sure, but you're going to love this episode. Becky's stories are so good and she clearly brought that midwestern charm to all of the jobs, even the ones she couldn't stand! Anna and Ellen discuss an audition where Anna put a little "too much personality" into it. Also, they discuss a tweet from a Wharton grad who thinks a 6 figure job is the norm lol. This episode is fire, so listen & rate & show some love. And follow Becky Chicoine @BeckyChicoine on social and tell her ya love her.

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.
