This week: It’s the very first episode of No Fun: The Jen Kirkman Podcast - back when it was called “I Seem Fun: The Diary of Jen Kirkman Podcast.” There isn't a hook. Jen talks into a microphone. By herself. It's stream of consciousness with a point. It's like this - Jen wants to talk to you so that you know who she is. Then we can go from there. It's an easy and free thing to do for thoughts that are too long to tweet and ideas that aren't quite yet stand-up or other things. It's your friend leaving you a REALLY LONG voicemail message - hopefully an entertaining one. IN THE MONTH OF APRIL IF YOU JOIN PATREON - YOU WILL GET 15% OFF FOR JOINING FOR THE YEAR AND IF YOU JOIN AT THE $5.99 PER MONTH LEVEL YOU GET A COOL NO FUN TOTE BAG!
