Werkplace Comedy

Welcome to werk, we get into it today. From addressing all of our supportive besties (thank you to the real ones) to wisdom teeth removal, the theme of the day seems to be tangents - all geared toward charging employers for all of the nickel-dimey things that they would charge a customer extra. We open strong with a job opportunity for the adults tbh. And then we roll right on into Tennessee, wher...

From food deliveries, to state governments making it illegal for counties and cities to pass necessary laws for the safety of their local citizens, to squeezing an ass through a tight window - we travel to a few topics today. This podcast has been produced by Nicole Oh, Michelle Oh, and Sam Everett Baker. This podcast is a work of fiction and was created for entertainment purposes only. Any simila...

Happy belated Cowboy Carter day to those who celebrate!! We recorded this on the day of the album release and we LOVE. We cover a lot of ground today in the office. From natural deodorant, to a national tax service, to unions and the importance of local elections. We also discuss moving to Texas (if, like work, we can live remotely) and we learn about a boss who works remotely but refuses to let t...

We don't want to go here either and yet everywhere you look, here we are. Trader Joe's is working to take every individual's workplace rights away. Then, we're gonna make a pit stop at peacocking employers who try to lure you in with cute chairs and no money. After that, we're talking about thirsty prospectives who really want to work somewhere, or desperately need a job, and l...

We took two weeks off because a break is necessary when you’re going through it. We’re learning that Channing Tatum walked so John Cena could run… which is weird because John Cena was here first but we don’t make the rules. Then we’re learning more about why we took two weeks off, fortunately things are looking up for us - we take the wins we get. After we’re talking about YouTube and the way they...

We were late to work today but, honey, we made it. We're learning about work ethic to start, and then floating on over to chronotypes and work patterns that Sam & Michelle thrive within. And then, we're learning, about a soft stalker - which leads us into being haunted somehow. The Segways work people. This episode is produced by Nicole Oh, Michelle Oh, and Sam Everett Baker. This podcast is a wor...

The swindlers are out here and the burglars are burgling. AI takes the spot at #1 this week, yet again, because we find only more evidence that it's being fine-tuned and pushed upon us - not because there aren't enough people to do the work (is the job market actually thriving???) but because it's cheaper to use non-people that you don't have to pay. Also, we're talking about ....

We're hitting a few different bases today. We're talking about social media vs the Werkplace, vs the regular world. We're also going into hustle culture vs millennials vs 65 year olds who apparently thrive in hustle culture. We do take a detour to discuss what Michelle and Sam would do IMMEDIATELY after winning the lottery. All before we learn about someone who dated a trash boy . . .

The agenda is FULL TODAY. We start with an employer from Texas who just really seems to hate it when their employees try to live. Then, we're rolling over to Hollywood where YOU can meet with an agent - if you don't suck lol. While we're in Hollywood, we're learning about a TV show that'll help you if you're a woman who thinks her husband is cheating on her . . . We're...

This episode is about stealing, and how companies do it legally and then we'll like, tell them that it's a bad thing and then they'll be like... no but it's a good thing and then we just like... go back to work for some reason. We're also breaking down Food Savers, Stanley Cups, Snack Machines, and Oreo Truffles. This episode, like all of our episodes, are a work of fiction for...

Honey, the calendar is FULL! We're talking about Jodie Foster and what she thinks about GenZ. We're talking about cannabis vs. the workplace. We're learning about a chancellor who makes porn? And we're covering the fact that a work spouse is... well you'll have to listen to learn what we think about it. One more thing we do is learn Sam's tagline if he were a real housewife...

A bundle of a week, this week. We did tape this on Christmas but it's not a Christmas episode as far as content. We're joining YouTube! It's still not up and running, but we'll be uploading a video of each podcast, with captions, to YouTube very soon! We discuss seasonal jobs and the fantastic people we meet while working them. We learn about a private investigator gig? That is ava...

WE ARE BACK! After more than the two weeks we promised (because Sam's computer broke but fortunately he had Apple Care + and now it's not broken!!). This week we're hashing our holiday moment from a few weeks ago, and addressing a job prospect some of you missed out on. We're also learning about a 90's celebrity has-been who can't keep himself to himself - which is all bad....

This week, we announce that we’re taking two weeks off! Sam isn’t here, Michelle had to clock him out (BECAUSE HIS COMPUTER BROKE) but you do get to meet our co-producer, Nicole! Have a great two weeks, we’ll be back soon!

Sam's going through vertigo and Michelle is keepin' on. We also mention ignorant statements made by the CEO of Disney and compare them to the fact that HE DOESN'T EVEN GOOO TO URGENT CARE (probably). We talk about strip clubs in California and the way that some dancers can now join Actor's Equity! And we talk about two gay people who worked in different paint stores. A good time wa...

Welcome back to Week! This week, we're talking quirky side jobs, rich bosses who have demonic daughters, and why Michelle might be interested in working 14 hours a day (Sam only wants to work no more than four hours a day #texts). We also give you misinformation regarding CA's daylight savings laws. So know that we know we got that incorrect. This episode is produced by Sam Everett Baker,...

Sometimes you just need a soft day, and that's exactly what we're discussing today in the Werkplace. Sam's gonna regale us about a time he ripped his pants in a very, very fancy place. Michelle is gonna tell us about birds, and they're both gonna tell you about their soft lives. For more information: https://linktr.ee/werkplacecomedy?utm_source=linktree_profile_share&ltsid=b747...

Today at werk: we're talking ghosting. We're talking quiet firing. We're learning about the time Sam was quiet-laid-off. We're learning that Michelle DOESN'T know anything about BDSM - and we're learning about a resource that can teach her a thing or two. We also learn about a theme park employee who's co-werker gave them a valium when they had a simple headache #ThatsW...

We talk about a few things, including the episode title. Listen to learn more about those and how they could pay you tbh. This week we're also debuting our new segment "In Other News" where we literally talk about a *ahem* homophobic chicken retailer that was asking for VOLUNTEERS to work the lunch rush. This episode is co-produced by Sam Everett Baker, Michelle Oh and Nicole Oh. Tra...

If you've ever been a cashier, you know the importance of balancing your bank at the end of a shift. This week, we learn about someone who was short- FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS. But, were they set-up by management just to get fired?

THIS WEEK WE ARE GOING TO WERK! Or, rather, discussing creative ways people have *left* work. Join Sam & Michelle as they learn about Walmart on Cruise Ships, delivering pizza so passionate it calls itself WOW, & SPIFFs but they never come down to a conclusion as to what they are.

Welcome back to WERK! This week, Sam talks about his recent jump into the job search while Michelle regales us with the job interview from hell. We also explore the ability to detect chili for a restaurant in Nebraska, and learn about a rambunctious employee at a small town's bar and grill.

Welcome to our first day on the job! Sam & Michelle introduce themselves and read some...interesting job descriptions that sound crazy enough to be real. We also hear about a story which brought-up an interesting topic: Your boss's search history. To look or not to look? That is the question. Would you do it?
