This Job is History
Description
Where the oddest jobs from the past meet a comedian from the present… and it’s awkward! On this weekly show, Chris Parnell (SNL, Rick and Morty) welcomes guests who have held some of human history’s most unexpected and downright bizarre jobs: funeral clowns, garden hermits, VHS clerks, and everything in between. With the help of his tireless producer, Chris hears from the essential workers from decades and centuries past. Because before there were actual medical doctors, there were barber surgeons. And before there was Instacart, there were milkmen. Wondery’s This Job Is History is a funny, absurd, and informative look into how time can change the way we live and work.

Why is Jeffrey Epstein on the show's cover art??
I like this podcast.
meh, neat concept. terrible execution.
I was hoping to learn something, but the stereotypical ren fair clown char is so annoying I couldn't get through it... That was bad, dude, really bad. maybe the next episode will be better.
Chris Parnell should be in everything in entertainment.
