Happy 99th episode everyone! This week we are joined by one of the greats! We have host, comedian, Bravo personality, and friend, Daryn Carp (Shaken & Disturbed Podcast, People's Reality Check) on the show! Daryn is one of the busiest freelancers we know, but for an hour she was unemployed with us. We discuss her first jobs in her family's ski shops, working as a waitress in her hometown, and then the coveted retail job at American Apparel (RIP). But after her retail days, Daryn landed the NBC page program right out of college where she got to work on a bunch of NBC shows. Eventually she got an interview to work with Andy Cohen, where she was exceptionally honest about her opinions on Bravo shows. What could have cancelled her in the Bravo-verse turned into an 11 year job working alongside Andy Cohen at Bravo. We get to learn some great advice that Daryn has gotten over the years and it's very cool to hear how supportive of a boss he's been throughout her life. This episode is inspiring, and shout out to Andy Cohen if he ever wants to be a guest! LOL. Make sure you check out Daryn on social: @carpedaryn and listen to Shaken & Disturbed podcast!

This week's episode is with an amazing Film & TV Producer, Professor, Cartographer of the Media Universe, and Anna's friend, Evan Shapiro! Evan has had some incredible jobs over the years working for big corporate media companies, producing major comedy series like Portlandia, teaching at NYU, and his latest venture- starting a podcast with his daughter about cancel culture! (Brave, right?! It's so funny.) Evan gives some of the best advice we've had on this podcast. He talks to us about the rise and fall of major media companies, and what he liked and disliked about working for some of these corporations, and how he's able to fuel his creativity into his life now. He tells us stories about running his own business, a creative marketing agency working with Broadway's biggest shows, and developing Portlandia for IFC. Evan and Anna talk about finding your passion and figuring out a way to make money doing it, which is really what a job should be. And also Broadway...they're big theater nerds. You're going to love this episode and feel empowered about work after listening to it. So to take him down a notch (just kidding) go listen to his new podcast, "Cancel Culture" with his daughter and her comedian friends who have to write a joke for Evan about a questionable topic that could definitely get him cancelled! Follow Evan on social media @eshap - and for more wise words, his Substack!

We're back! We've been on a little break but hey, we're on our way to episode 100! This week we have on one of Anna's new and close friends who she has never met in person, the hilarious and talented Nicole Travolta! Nicole and Anna literally met over instagram where they were posting SATC impressions over the pandemic and then ended up collaborating on a video! A video that they shot separately from NY and LA and edited it together! Technology, people. This episode is so wonderful because Nicole really shows us what it's like when your personal life can interrupt your professional one. After going through a divorce, she truly found herself and her passion again and has been making incredible content and strides in her career! Plus we get some amazing stories about clients of hers that she has spray tanned before. It's pretty remarkable. We can't wait to make more content together and you're gonna adore Nicole so follow her at @NicoleTravolta on social media and enjoy her videos!! Also, Anna and Ellen discuss Anna's latest gig - always another gig! (Least she's not fully unemployed?)
