Jackie chats with comedian, writer and actor Jana Schmieding. Jana stars opposite Ed Helms in Rutherford Falls, plays Bev on Reservation Dogs, and you can catch her picketing at a studio near you! Jana gives us the lowdown on the writer’s strike, the gigification of TV writing and how you can help. She shares her story of coming up in the New York City comedy scene, her move to LA and how she got her big break. We also talk dating and learn how to turn a fuckcation into a lovecation.
