Why should you need to be doing something important or impressive to get a pep talk? Two comedians offer hilarious encouragement for your most mundane struggles.

Anybody can tell you, “You can do it!” before the big job interview, or before you walk down the aisle, or before you head out onto the field to make the game-winning kick at the Super Bowl. But what about the other 99.99% of stuff you do? Who’s going to gas you up for all those low-stakes situations where you need an extra push?

That’s where Tiny Pep Talks comes in. Comedians Josh Linden and Paula Skaggs are rooting for you, and they’re here to cheerlead you through your everyday challenges. 

Josh Linden is a USA Today bestselling author and comedian. Along with Paula Skaggs, Josh is the co-author of Tiny Pep Talks, co-creator of the hit conversation game No Wrong Answers: Cards for Better Conversations, and cohost of Being Earnest (A Very Sincere Podcast). He has produced and written in shows across Chicago, including at iO Theater, The Second City, CIC Theater and the Chicago Improv Den.

Paula Skaggs is a best-selling author, a card game creator and a pretty big fan of frozen food. She's the co-creator of No Wrong Answers, the co-author of the National Best Seller Tiny Pep Talks, and the sodium-laden writer behind Paula Eats, a frozen meal review newsletter.
