You Can Pay People To Do What?!

from Newberg · host Newberg , Bell

This week we're talking about the weird services people are actually paying for and asking which ones you'd ever hire. From professional breakup services to people you can pay to make you look more impressive on a first date or job interview, we dive into some of the strangest businesses making money today. We also debate whether hiring someone to write your dating profile is genius or a giant red flag, ask if mystery shoppers are heroes or villains, and hear about the best and worst parts of listeners' jobs. Plus, we get into the biggest lies society has agreed to accept, the phrases that should be banned forever, the things people brag about that really aren't that impressive, and the random skills that deserve Olympic medals. It's a fun episode full of ridiculous jobs, hot takes, and plenty of chances to ask yourself, "Wait... people actually pay for that?"
