    Big Envelopes Trailer
    Nov 30 2023

    It used to be: Make good grades, get good SAT scores, write a good essay, and you were on your way to a good college. Now? Kiss that world goodbye. Merit isn’t a sure thing. Connections are everything. And money talks–a lot.

    Enter Kelly Pritzker (Abbi Jacobson), a shrewd, New Jersey-based college “consultant” who isn’t above faking athletic profiles, seducing administrators, greasing palms, and juicing GPAs. When it comes to getting the under-qualified and uber-privileged into the Ivy League, Kelly’s the closest thing you’ll find to a guarantee...If you can afford her, that is.

    But after an admissions scandal breaks on the West Coast, anonymous letters start appearing in Kelly’s mailbox, threatening to take down her entire operation. And when a mysterious teenager, Hadley (Whitney Peak), shows up at her door, a revelation about both of their pasts starts to upend Kelly's present…

    Starring Abbi Jacobson (Broad City, A League of Their Own), Whitney Peak (Gossip Girl), Susie Essman (Curb Your Enthusiasm), Judy Greer (Archer), Timothy Simons (Veep), the Sklar Brothers (Dumb People Town), and written and directed by Aaron and Will Eisenberg (Comedy Central's Cursed Friends), Big Envelopes is a razor-sharp satire that delivers a peek behind the ivy curtain of the 10-billion-dollar college admissions industry.

    For Kelly, getting kids into school is easy. It’s staying out of jail that’s the hard part.

Whitney Peak

About the Performer

The Ugandan/Canadian beauty is best known for her starring role on HBOMax’s much-hyped reboot of Gossip Girl, playing "Zoya Lott". She is also known for starring in Hocus Pocus 2, Disney+’s most-viewed streaming film release of all time, opposite Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker and Kathy Najimi. She can next be seen starring in Colin Tilley’s horror Somewhere in Dreamland alongside Finn Bennett, S. Epatha Merkerson and Golda Rosheuvel.
Peak made her feature film debut in 2017 alongside Idris Elba and Jessica Chastain in the Aaron Sorkin drama Molly’s Game, and previously recurred in Netflix’s Chilling Adventures of Sabrina and Apple TV’s Home Before Dark.
She is currently a global Chanel ambassador and stars in the latest Chanel 22 handbag campaign with Lily Rose Depp and Margaret Qualley, and has had partnerships with Levi’s and Moncler. This past February, Peak was named the newest face of the Coco Mademoiselle fragrance; the move makes her the first Black face of a Chanel scent, and overall, one of the rare Black faces seen in fragrance ads.

Susie Essman

About the Performer

Susie Essman is an actress, author, and stand-up comedian based out of New York City. Susie began her career as a working comic, catching the eye of Larry David, who cast her in her now iconic role of the strong-willed "Susie Green" in HBO’s long-running series Curb Your Enthusiasm. Since becoming a household name on Curb, Susie has branched out into numerous other TV projects, most recently the critically acclaimed HBO series Hacks.
The Los Angeles Times calls Susie "The most lyrical purveyor of profanity on television. She makes the entire cast of The Sopranos look like rank amateurs. It really is a gift."
Susie’s streetwise vernacular is perfectly suited for her life in Manhattan, where she has been a veteran of the world of stand-up comedy for 35 years. Her book, What Would Susie Say—Bullshit Wisdom About Love, Life and Comedy, is published by Simon & Schuster, and is now available in paperback.
Susie divides her time between New York City and upstate New York, where she lives with her husband and her one-eyed shih tzu.

Story line

I couldn’t stop listening to this. Heard all episodes back to back. It’s funny and a very interesting topic of conversation. Is college really worth it…??? Million dollar question.

A great short storyseries

This podcast series was well put together. I finished it in no time. Each episode blended well with the next. I didn't even know I was on the last episode until I paused to go to sleep. I wish there was another season focused on how the main characters evolved after the events in the story.

Funny cast and awesome story

Another great listen by Audible Original. And pretty much a true story of what goes on today and what has happened in the past with college scandals. I hope it becomes a movie it was that great. All the characters meshed so well together and it was easy to paint the whole thing in my mind. Super funny and loved it.

Hidden Gem

We need more! I was in my car looking for something to listen to while on a family road trip. While there were some mature topics this was a huge hit for the pre-teens. It felt like we were listening to a movie. From start to finish this was just top notch. The kids are asking for more stories, so please consider a series!

Riveting and so entertaining!

Abbi Jacobson is incredible. A super engaging story, and funny too. One of the best fiction podcasts I’ve listened to.

Funny, Entertaining and Sweet

I really enjoyed the story. The storyline of Kelly and Hadley was my favorite part. Great performance by Whitney Peak in this! She is definitely a star! I wish this was a longer story.
