Ever seen a job ad that feels like it was written by a time traveler? This week on Roast the Post, we dissect a Communications Associate role for a nonprofit preserving Revolutionary War battlefields in the United States... where the biggest twist isn’t the history, but the ban on social media.

That’s right: no tweets, no posts, just… print ads and event logistics? Jen, Paul, and guest roaster Katelyn McArdle from Functional Authority unpack the bizarre contradictions, from the "entrepreneurial" spirit clashing with the "follow-the-rules" vibe to the salary range that’s almost fair (if the role weren’t so confusingly scoped). Is this a hidden gem for history buffs, or a dumpster fire waiting for an unsuspecting comms pro? Tune in to find out.

What does it take to be a full-time golf companion for a jet-setting family? This week, Jen and Paul tee off on a job ad so niche, it makes their previous roasts look like entry-level gigs. Between the 75% travel, the cultural tutoring, and the mystery of who’s footing the bill for rent in Singapore, this role is equal parts dream job and logistical nightmare. Is it a legitimate opportunity or a scam wrapped in a country club membership?
