About Good Afternoon Planet Earth With Dominic Leonelli and Amy Jans
Good Afternoon Planet Earth hosted by Dominic Leonelli and Amy Jans! Your cosmic escape into the weird and wonderful world we call home. Each episode tackles out-of-this-world debates like whether robots should vote or if the humble spork is the ultimate utensil. From curious trivia face-offs about bizarre inventions to intergalactic questions from our alien correspondent, Hallobob, we celebrate the strange side of life. To random trivia! Plus, we honor Earth’s greatest minds, like the inventor of the chocolate chip cookie, in our "Humanity’s Hall of Fame."
Good Afternoon Planet Earth is back for 1 ep! and this episode starts as a conversation about money, expensive cities, and budgeting… then somehow turns into cruise ship performers, seasickness, Monaco, New York rent, Craigslist rooms, comedy dreams, broke creative survival, and what it really feels like to chase a dream with no safety net.Amy Jans and Dominic Leonelli talk about moving to NYC and LA with almost no resources, living in questionable apartments, doing comedy, trying to build confidence, and why being broke in a big city can feel like racing the Daytona 500 in an ’89 minivan.If you’ve ever tried to pursue something creative while also paying rent, buying coffee, budgeting badly, or pretending you’re fine — this one’s for you.Subscribe for more weird, honest, funny conversations from Good Afternoon Planet Earth.Follow us on Instagram :) https://www.instagram.com/goodafterno... / goodafternoonplanetearth Follow Dom! https://www.instagram.com/dominicleonelli/Follow Amy! https://www.instagram.com/amyjjansBusiness ops, email us:thegapeshowtv@gmail.comThank you for watching!!
