Punching Down - Episode 6
We’re delighted to bring you the Punching Down Holiday Special, featuring SF Appeal ad salesperson Tim Ehhalt, who shares his feelings about putting boobs and advertisements for Jägermeister on the front pages of newspapers. But first, we ponder what the future holds for a well-funded Bay Area news organization, now that its wealthy financier has passed away.
Eve reminds us that one downside of being able to feel a thing in your hands is how that thing, unfortunately, can be stolen. She also has some information about a job opening at a local alt weekly.
Plus: Tim and Justin reminisce about their first jobs, which happened to be working for newspapers. Hey, take a few more sips of that #morningcoffee! Drink!!
