Miserable Retail Slave
Two longtime friends - one a stand-up comedian, one a simple retail worker- try to prove who the funny one actually is, while trying to find meaning in their lives, as well as the meaning of their podcast. Along the way, they talk about online dating, searching for and finding love, their careers, the odd daily occurrences that happen in their silly little lives, and the weird news happening in society and pop culture that week. It’s like a morning radio show, but on the Internet and with curse words.
