Episode 80: A Soccer Star Can Have A Lot Of Feelings with Lorena Russi

It's our 80th birthday!!! And we're still unemployed! We have an amazing guest on this week - she's one of the funniest around town, Lorena Russi! You may know Lorena from The Late Show with Stephen Colbert or her hilarious digital work. She and Anna met doing comedy shows and spent one of the last days before the pandemic at a bizarre commercial audition that Lorena fully remembers and Anna doesn't! Lorena talks to us about all of the jobs she had like random jobs of scrubbing off graffiti around NYC, selling condoms with Obama on them, becoming a professional soccer player, doing improv, quitting improv, moving to Italy to teach, working with groups of people facilitating difficult conversations and the list goes on. Lorena also tells us about learning 'how to be the best person in a workplace' and honestly we shoulda had her on YEARS AGO! This episode is so real, full of heart, and so much fun. Follow Lorena at @colonialmanface all over and watch some of her amazing comedy videos on her website! Don't forget to RATE, REVIEW, and HIRE ANNA & ELLEN for all of your employment needs.
