Ep. 18: Writer at Barstool Sports, Kate Mannion: How She Obtained Her Dream Job Thanks to Raw Comedic Talent (And a Vagina Shaped Calzone) - a podcast by Grit Player Services

How the f**k did Kate Mannion end up writing for Barstool Sports, co-hosting the podcast series “Zero Blog Thirty” and co-hosting the Chaps and Kate Show on Sirius XM? Today, we’re talking about calzones, cheese cups, and totally normal binders full of women with Kate. She served in the US Marine Corps, deploying twice to Afghanistan, before coming back to the U.S. and participating in a volunteer program dedicated to integrating veterans into selective fields. She went from helping angry shopkeepers whose business were affected by subway construction to sitting in a room full of writers for “The Daily Show with Jon Stewart '' and putting together expense reports for Comedy Central. After she moved back to Philadelphia and while she was working concessions at the Wells Fargo Center, she started taking her Twitter content seriously and it took off. That’s where her soon to be partner in crime,  Uncle Chaps, found her photo of the vagina-shaped calzone. After an appearance on his podcast, she was invited to write freelance, which eventually led to a full-time gig. So how did Kate make the transition from military to comedy? And what advice did she give us when it comes to talking to girls?
