Roy's Job Fair

Footbaaawwll

Football! The people who’ve played it and some who cover it. Mike Hill (FOX Sports &amp; Formerly ESPN) shares the heartbreak of being referred to as "Too ghetto" in his early days of sports journalism and the adventures of being a father, his pivot into acting, and his book ‘Open Mike.' The first African American woman to be a play-by-play sports announcer in college football, Tiffany Greene, gives us the play-by-play of her successes with ESPN, HBCU platforms, and being a successful working mother on the road 60% of every week. Former NFL football player Jo Barksdale shares his time playing football while at the same time having autism and suicidal thoughts. He discovered his passions off the field and is changing lives in the world of mental health. Speaking of football, did Rickey in ‘Boyz N Da Hood’ deserve to die? Roy &amp; Rod are at each other’s throats (yet again) about it. Plus, a young entrepreneur in North Carolina was fired after packing restaurant to-go bags with edibles.    Watch all Roy Wood Jr Comedy Specials NOW available on iTunes and streaming NOW on Paramount+  See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.

Work is like sex or food — you’re either getting it or looking for it. Comedian Roy Wood Jr. (correspondent on Comedy Central’s The Daily Show with Trevor Noah) explores the human condition every week through the prism of employment. Roy sits down with real people from ALL lines of work about their most memorable jobs, employment vacancies they're looking to fill, scams they've run at the office, and of course, the cringe-worthy office romances. Roy's famed humor is matched by his true empathy and curiosity for people. Join him on an entertaining exploration into the battle all of us fight every day. Balancing our need to provide with our need for emotional fulfillment. Learn from the people who got it right. Laugh with the rest of us, who constantly get it wrong. Welcome to the Job Fair.
