When Chloe got laid off this year, she accidentally went viral and reached over 20m+ views online. This spawned a lot of unexpected things - from getting lots of new opportunities to being retweeted into oblivion. It was truly an atypical layoff experience, but was also the catalyst for Chloe and Eric to finally record this pod.

Hope you enjoy the very first episode of JOMO with Chloe and Eric!

Note: This episode was recorded In February 2024, so some information might be outdated.
