- Society & Culture
This is Jollie Jeep where we dish out a full course of discourse in convenient bite-sized pieces. We are IT professionals on a mission to break the monotony of work with pop culture talk, musings on daily life, and opinions that we can agree to disagree on delivered with a side dish of spicy irreverence. And yes, we also talk about IT!
The menu is always different but is never lukewarm. It's water cooler talk with all that is trending! This is just what you need for your chika-break.
