Side Work Podcast

Side Work Podcast

Four veteran waitresses clap back in a new weekly comedy podcast where nothing's off the table other than the 15% tip we just stuffed into our apron. Hosted by Brooke Van Poppelen, Joselyn Hughes, Kyle June Williams & Andrea Wallace, the group uses their combined 50+ years of servitude, extensive careers in comedy (while waiting tables), and disdain for entitled Yelp culture to dish about the career that everyone should experience to be a decent human being. Side Work Podcast combines current events, trends in the service industry & food, and hilarious past anecdotes while featuring interviews Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/side-work-podcast/support
