Service From Hell

You all helped make this week's episode possible with your questions and we are also launching our very first cry for help. Just kidding - but we would love to have you take a look at our new Patreon to support the growth of the podcast.

One of the best actors and improvisers in the country is @jaime_moyer. We have her with us this week to discuss working at a goth club, entering the Concession Olympics, and why LA is the biggest small town in the world.

~Programming note ~ We recorded this over Zoom, and it, shockingly, sounds like it ~

Back for the second half of our interview, one of Kate's oldest and dearest friends Rob Collins, ESQ discusses his previous customer service jobs and how being a lawyer really IS a lot about customer service. To contact Rob directly, please reach out to HOPE https://hopefhc.com/ - Tambien, hay servicios en espanol! Llama el numero, y ellos pueden ayudarles!

Lawyer and one of Kate's oldest friends Rob Collins joins us to discuss how being a lawyer is reading people, listening, and solving problems. He also discusses how housing discrimination is very real and (sometimes) very subtle. This is part 1 of 2. 

~Programming note ~ here's a shock - this is via Zoom and it sounds like it. Crazy, right? ~

We're back with the second part of Dr. Nick answering your questions. We talk about COVID way less in this episode but do address sex in quarantine.

~Programming note ~ still on zoom. Still sounds like it.

We thought we'd bring back a guest you all keep asking about to try and help you feel better about things as they are now! Dr. Nicholas J. Mayer is with us to discuss some follow up COVID-19 info and to discuss when we, as customer service workers, can actually expect to open back up. He also takes some listener questions. This is part 1 of 2! 

~ Programming note - He was in the hospital and this was recorded over Zoom. It for sure sounds like it. ~

Actor, friend of the podcast, and our FAVOURITE Aussie @bellaheathcote is back for her full episode to discuss crying in a tie stall, accidentally dropping acid, and replacing a beer bottle for a customer after it was placed somewhere...questionable. We love her and you will, too!

~ Programming note ~ this was recorded in February of 2020 and was quite literally our last interview right before the world was on fire, so our joy is a reflection of that. ~

This has been one hell of a year and you have all handled it like idiots.  Just kidding. A lot of you have been cool, but some of y'all? Damn. Anyway. Happy Holidays and thank you for supporting the show, telling your friends, and making this one of the most fun projects of our lives. We are humbled and grateful. We're taking some time off, so enjoy this Best of 2020, and we'll see you in 2021~!

As one of the first ever interviews for this podcast (way back in December of 2019), Actor and Producer Tara Robinson gets real with us about being loyal to her customer service jobs (almost to a fault). She also explains how she balances out caring, but trying not to care, while working a job that isn't the dream. We are super alike and very goofy, so be prepared for chaos!

This week, fellow actor and friend of the podcast @katelynstatton describes more jobs than anyone should have in a lifetime, and to be hired, all of them required having a face like hers. But - she's so humble, she didn't realize that was the connection. 

Programming note - still in COVID, still sounds like it.
