How Were U Brainwashed?
"Manhattan Door-to-door Salesman" (w/ Russell Daniels)
In today's episode Jenny & Nicole are joined by the DELIGHTFUL actor (Ginger Twinsies, Titanique), comedian, and podcaster (The Downside with Gianmarco Soresi) Russell Daniels!
They get into one of the SINGLE worst jobs we've ever heard about, if you should pick your sexual partners based on if they have a driver's license or not, if Jenny should see what AI knows about her, bartending at Watch What Happens Live, explaining 'serving c*nt" to someone in Ohio, scamming in the name of giraffes, seeing your former students when you're demonstrating magic toys, what you should do if someone pees their pants in front of you, and if you're supposed to ask permission to have sex in the office, .
