    Ep1: Ghost Appointments with Theresa Sullivan

    Totally Appropriate is a podcast about the weird, funny, and *totally appropriate* things we do when we're thrown into a workplace with fellow human beings.
    In this episode, Jenna and guest Theresa gossip about events that unfolded between team members at a nonprofit organization.

    Trailer: This Is Totally Appropriate

    Trailer: This Is Totally Appropriate

    My name is Jenna Hellberg, and this is Totally Appropriate – a podcast that I hope will bring some giddiness, intrigue, and comic relief into your day.
    Join me and a cast of gossip–deprived guests as we navigate listener-submitted stories that’ll hopefully have you laughing, gasping, and maybe even nodding in solidarity. 
    I think we could all use a diversion or two from the heavier things we deal with in our everyday lives, and what better way to do that than through lighthearted tales from complete strangers’ workplaces?
    The stories you’ll hear are anonymized, telephone-gamed, and partly fictionalized – because we definitely don’t want to get anyone in trouble at work. Right?
    We just wanna share some laughs about the fact that when we’re thrown into a workplace with fellow human beings, any of us can do things that are silly, bewildering, and *tooootally appropriate* in a professional setting.
    Subscribe to Totally Appropriate wherever you listen to podcasts, and don’t forget to connect with me on Instagram @totallyappropriatepod
    And if you’ve heard a piece of gossip that’s too good to keep to yourself, whether it unfolded at a fast-paced corporate office or in a quaint teeny-tiny-town bakery, no matter if it happened yesterday or 47 years ago, head over to totallyappropriatepod.com to share your story. I’m nothing but ears.

A guilty pleasure I didn’t know I needed

At first, I wasn’t sure how a podcast about other-people’s-work-lives would feel, but it’s been a blast to listen to. The commitment to a Mad Libs-style framing adds an extra level of humor and a surprising amount of relatability.

A fun spin on workplace stories!

I loved the mad-libs/improve nature of this podcast! Anxiously waiting, to hear more while I edit or during commutes.
