Comedian and Bestselling Author Jen Kirkman in Conversation with Jenni Konner

Apr 14, 2016

Her Netflix comedy special, I’m Gonna Die Alone (And I Feel Fine) is streaming worldwide and was called one of the best stand-up specials of 2015 by Time Out NY and the Atlantic.

The New York Times said, "Though delivered in an effortless conversational style, her comedy has the meticulous detail that can come only from repetition and experience.” Her first book, I Can Barely Take Care of Myself…. was an instant New York Times Bestseller. Jen is well known for her years as a weekly roundtable guest on "Chelsea Lately," and as the only five time narrator on the Emmy nominated Comedy Central series “Drunk History.” Join her as she talks with Jenni Konner, the Executive Producer of the Lena Dunham written HBO series "Girls," about her candid, honest, but hilarious new book, I Know What I’m Doing and Other Lies I Tell Myself (Dispatches From a Life Under Construction), and shares her unique and often conflicted views on how to figure out life.
