Summary

This week Jen’s talking about: How she screwed up this week’s episode by recording it and then deleting it - leading her to release what was once just a paid Patreon bonus episode about J. Lo & Ben’s exciting reunion to the public to make up for the lack of episode this week. Win-win! Just like how BENNIFER 2.0 is a win for Boston Red Sox fans, Dunkin’ fans and Gen-X women!

No fun, no fun, good, you're good with my touch, but that's a bit...

0:36.0

No fun, the Jen Kirkman podcast, episode 389, sort of. So I fucked up. I made a mistake. I recorded a whole episode...

in this little microphone.

0:52.0

And then I deleted it, and then I deleted my trash. I mean it is gone. Don't even email me tipsy again.

0:58.0

Now as you know, every episode also has a video component, but I just used the microphone on the camera for that.

1:06.0

It seems to pick up my voice pretty well, but to extract it and just play the audio, it sounds a little weird.

1:16.0

So weirdly, the only people who will get to experience what was supposed to be this week's episode where I talk about an article about how Jen asked me to play the audio.

1:26.0

I'm not sure if I can tell you what I'm talking about. How Jen X is now AARP age.

1:34.0

And I talk about how I had an epiphany about, you know...

1:40.0

Almost the thing that got me to start this podcast is the notion of what is your fun as opposed to what you think everyone else is fun is.

1:48.0

My fun is not bottle service at the club listening to bad music and yelling, woo.

1:56.0

So whenever anyone asks me how many fun plans this weekend, I always just think that's what they mean.

2:02.0

And if I am not doing that, I always just lie because I don't want to get into what I think is fun because I don't want to argue about it.

2:08.0

And it never dawned on me to just tell people if I'm sitting here starting a podcast about it, why don't I just tell people?

2:17.0

What my fun is. And see what they say. You know, allow them to be a human.

2:23.0

And I actually had an epiphany about how I've been handling that terrible question.

2:29.0

So if you want to join, I swear to God this is not a grab to get you to join my Patreon.

2:36.0

And you'll know that it isn't because you'll see that there's still a half an hour left of this episode.

2:43.0

And that's because I'm giving you something else. So let me I'll tell you what I'm giving you.

2:50.0

After I tell you, if you want the episode that I just described, it does exist on the video version.

2:59.0

I also go into a whole trip about 1980 sitcoms that had to have their Russians or good people.
