Update: We've Found Our Bruncher!

After combing through several great applicants, WhistleOut has found our candidate, and boy did we find a qualified one! Meet Nick Dekker.

Nick is a food and travel writer based out of central Ohio. In addition to writing for several publications across the state, Nick has been running and writing for his own award-winning blog Breakfast with Nick since 2007. Nick also occasionally leads culinary tours themed around breakfast and brunch for Columbus Food Adventures.

We are thrilled to have found someone with a clear passion for food and a love for sharing that passion with others.

If we’ve learned anything during the pandemic, it’s that social distancing doesn’t necessarily mean being alone. And now, we need your help to prove this. We’ll pay you $1,000 to host virtual brunches with your friends!

Job Details


It’s simple really. You’ll host three (3) brunches with some of your favorite people using one of several video chat apps, and report back to us about how they went. We’ll pay you $1,000 to do the task. 

Our goal is to gather timely and comprehensive insights about which video chat platforms are the best for friends to gather and communicate with during the pandemic. You’ll be testing out any three of the following (your choice!):

Who We're Looking for


We’re looking for someone who is comfortable and committed to hosting three brunches, using a different virtual chat app during each one, and answering a few simple questions about it after. Applicants must be over the age of 18 and eligible to work in the U.S.

What You'll Get


Besides a great excuse to hang out with your besties, you’ll get: 

  • $1,000
  • A $300 Grubhub gift card for your food—that’s three really lavish meals for yourself, or you could be nice and buy food for the friends you plan on video chatting with too
  • 100% remote work!!

How to Apply


To apply, fill out the application form (below) with approximately 200 words about why you (and your brunch crew) would be a good fit for the role. Don’t be shy about telling us why you're passionate about brunch, video chatting or, ideally, both!

To help your case even more, be sure to mention any social media platforms that you have an active presence on. We’d love our brunch host to tag us on their relevant channels. 

Applicants must be over the age of 18 and eligible to work in the US. 

Lastly, we heavily encourage that you subscribe to WhistleOut’s Youtube channel, so you can see updates for the Dream Job!
