So I'm at it again, but this time with direction and purpose. "Episode 1...Again" represents the attempts I have had at producing other podcasts all the way to where it is finally coming all together. I am so excited to bring The Jen Hellman Show to you to benefit my organization Comics Crushing Cancer. All of our sponsorships and Patreon support will go to my 501(C)3 that helps women with the personal costs associated with having breast cancer. Producing a podcast has a lot of challenges, but I am very excited that my very talented, co-comedian friend, Lalo Rodriguez, has made the commitment to help host The Jen Hellman Show and cover general interest stories with a dash of our own personal accounts. In this episode, we discuss watching Kanye West come unhinged in the public eye and start following the "Missing Mom Hoax", Sherri Papini story! Plus Great edible sneak up stories, being wrongly accused and more! We're off to a great start and hope you enjoy the show!
There's no where we won't go in this episode! Jackie, Charly and I cover expensive dental work, vaginal infections and go beyond the surface of oral sex. Jen discovers new sound efx on the sound board, none of which actually came through on the podcast? Just listen and relax!
On this episode, Jackie and Jen cover how their fear of throwing up effects visits to amusement parks and the decision to have kids. We cover the make-up and filter craze as we prepare to shoot for our "Karen Cares Center" comedy sketch. Enjoy a riff around the world when we attempt dialogue in our favorite accents.
Charlie and I welcome you into the new year with non-negotiables of relationships and maintaining mental health as comedians and in general.
That's Interesting is now Topics and Tea, at least this week it is! Tune in and listen to me and special guests, Jackie Sanchez and Charlie Esturilho cover headlines and topics. More episodes coming!
The story of Robert The Doll, the most haunted doll in the world, is like no other. In this episode, Author and Historian David I. Sloan shares, with infectious enthusiasm, the story of the Otto Family of Key West and Robert The Doll! Bonus-Paranormal Caught on Camera's Aaron Sagers pops on for a full Ouja board experience and I'll just say we did our best to keep recording!
This girl talk covered everything from good hair to advice for when you are hanging on for dear life. I thoroughly enjoyed talking with Leslie just as I did reading her book, Black Widow. We take "shit happens" to the next level and whether you have suffered loss or not, this episode will have you thinking about what can happen in life and say That's Interesting!
Episode 2 is already off with improvements because Zoom actually recorded this time! Note: You will have to turn it up after the ads because I am an amateur, but Ramon Garcia is not! We talked stand up comedy fundamentals, going through tough times in life, keeping a positive mindset and more. You will want to change the world after listening to this episode, or at least go put the dishes away!
In the world of amateur podcasters this one is in for the win. Aside from coming out strong with a spectacular guest, Kyle Grooms, we strapped up our boots through bad connections, my ear wrecking crow voice and a Zoom tech failure to record the session and here is the finished product! I considered not even posting it, after recording it from Facebook Live, but Kyle Grooms is such a special guest; we talked comedy, health, family and race and I think once you get used to the underwater sound and audio interruptions, you will listen and say "That's Interesting!
