About Job Description with Rick Koster

Do you ever find yourself wondering about an intriguingly obscure or maybe intricate job? Or “I didn’t even know people did that.” My name is Rick Koster, and I don’t do many things with fluency, so when i meet someone who has a really interesting gig or does something really well, it’s a privilege to talk to them. Job Description is a new podcast from The Day where we do exactly that, talk to folks who do things the rest of us could only screw up.
