Hours in a library. So many energy drinks. Thesaurus.com bookmarked. Jess Fisher’s guests never thought anyone would ask them about that niche paper they wrote in school, but the host of this particular podcast has a soft spot for ramblers. Tune-in, laugh, relate, learn something new.

Customer Reviews
Listen!
I’ve been lucky enough to work with Jess & it’s really great to see her curiosity, humor, & intelligence used so beautifully. Go fricken listen!
Jess Fisher Rocks! A Must Listen.
Jess Fisher’s ridiculously unique humor is only matched by her heightened conversational prowess and distinctive personality. This Tik Tok star joins the podcast scene with a bang featuring conversations ranging from Keeping Up with the Kardashians to the correlation between Frankenstein’s Monster and Marx.
Each of her guests may present a new and refreshing essay each week, but Jess anchors the ship through her ownership of the airwaves and calculated questions which almost always result in extended discussion and new perspectives. You also get to meet some pretty cool people along the way.
Make sure not to miss this. New Episodes every Monday.
