  • #2. Portrait of the Artist as an Unhinged Woman: The Making of FREE SCHOOL
    This episode, originally entitled "Rach, You Ok? Srsly. We're CONCERNED," was recorded as a live video on Instagram on March 1, 2021. Get the full video experience at the Making Fun Of Business website. (This was the same day I recorded the spontaneous rough draft of my one woman musical comedy extravaganza-ish situation. You really had to be there. Luckily, you can. It's Episode #1.) This was only a few weeks after I started FREE SCHOOL, which I deemed "the greatest biz art experiment of all time." Partly as a dare to myself, partly as a wink to the lavish, overhyped promises of the industry. I'm in branding, remember?

  • #1. Saw This Coming A Mile Away: Rough Draft of A One Woman Musical Extravaganza-ish Situation

    Travel back in time to the beginning of FREE SCHOOL, for this one woman musical comedy recorded (and completely improvised) live on Instagram on 3/1/2021. I had just announced my book, Saw This Coming A Mile Away, and here are the receipts because this episode predicted the future of FREE SCHOOL, touching on everything from The Game by pickup artist Neil Strauss to everyone’s favorite MAGA daddy, James Wedmore, to how I married the wrong man 365 times. And did I predict Rachel Hollis’ latest scandal a month in advance? How about Jenna Kutcher coming into my DMs and gaslighting me so I’d shut up already? Or a bunch of well meaning, left leaning white women calling the cops because I veered from Live Laugh Love culture and that must mean I’m “manic,” mentally ill, and must be medicated??? Yeah. I predicted it all. Plus, a rousing rendition of “God Bless Bezmerica” and an RKA’s History of the United States of America, loosely inspired by Howard Zinn and the skinny noodle men who colonized the country in the name of eventually building lots of Targets.

  • Trailer: MAKING FUN OF BUSINESS

    Hey I’m RKA and this is my new podcast, Making Fun of Business. My friends call me “Rachael Kay Albers” and my enemies call the cops or they just block me like Marie Forleo and my ex Dave Hollis.

    I’m the one woman Saturday Night Live of Business Comedy and the Court Jester of the Royal Shit Show that is Online Marketing.

    In 2021, I began the greatest business art experiment of all time, called FREE SCHOOL, with the goal of burning down the bullshit of online business to see what’s left standing.

    I ended up burning down my business, my marriage, and my reputation and now I’m showing you that you don’t need 10K or pay to play or rose all day to build a business or make a meaningful impact in your industry.

    See how a Phoenix rises LIVE while suddenly facing single motherhood and pivoting away from the branding business I ran for 12 years that ended up feeling more claustrophobic than a cubicle.

    I’m not here to replace your favorite thought leaders. I’m here to help you become the leader you need.

    And speaking of shit shows, this podcast aims to be just that. A big beautiful mess that doesn’t follow a particular format but, in FREE SCHOOL fashion, says YES to each new idea that arrives.

    Come to see a madwoman at work, stay for the only business podcast that puts FUN FIRST and let’s value take a backseat.

    There will be whistle blowing, surprise guests, and lots of midwestern mom jokes, dontacha know.

    This ain’t online marketing made easy or business made simple. There are plenty of girlbosses and the dickfunnels they rode in willing to lie to you and call it friendship.

    If you want to laugh your ass off while you clean your own toilets, yes that’s a Rachel Hollis dig, then buckle up and let the fun begin.

    Oh could you subscribe and leave me a review before Tiny Tony and a bunch of angry life coaches in hats ruin it for all of us??? THANKS I OWE YOU ONE!!!!!!!!
