Life's a Joke with Christina Kirkman

Life's a Joke with Christina Kirkman

Sometimes you laugh at life. Sometimes life laughs at you. Sometimes you accidentally start a podcast after years of being a failed actor turned internet famous dog mom turned content creator (ew) and for some crazy reason people still call you the "All That" girl (It's been 20 years guys, seriously). Christina Kirkman is just trying to get to the punchline before she dies. Think she can do it? (Don't answer that). See you on Thursdays hahahhaha whatever For advertising opportunities please email PodcastPartnerships@Studio71us.com We wanna make the podcast even better, help us learn how we can: https://bit.ly/2EcYbu4 Privacy Policy: https://www.studio71.com/terms-and-conditions-use/#Privacy%20Policy
