Episode 13: The King Of Pep Talks & Comedy Writing with Josh Gondelman
Warning: The latest episode of Unemployed was recorded in a coronavirus-free world when Anna was still employed at HQ...sounds beautiful, right? How lucky are we to have the very funny Josh Gondelman on this episode?! VERY. You may know Josh from his work on Desus&Mero on Showtime, or Last Week Tonight with John Oliver on HBO. He's the king of pep talks on twitter and he's actually pretty employed! Josh and Anna talk about his days teaching pre-school and tutoring, and what it was like to make the move from Boston to NYC to pursue comedy writing. Then Josh and Anna call Taylor, who is looking to find a job as a mechanical engineer. (A job Anna is fully capable of commenting on...?) Regardless of the field, it's frustrating getting told you're "overqualified!" Josh also has an awesome sneaker collection and that is not on this episode.
