Episode Description

James "Murr" Murray is on Celebrity Jobber with Jeff Zito this week. What type of work would Murr be doing if not for being a comedian, actor, and author best known as a member of The Tenderloins comedy troupe and for starring in the hit TV series Impractical Jokers? Many celebrities will tell you that if not for that one lucky break or meeting, they would have been selling Ballpoint Pens over the phone like Johnny Depp, or selling garbage bags door-to-door like Mark Cuban. In other words, they may have been just a jobber.
