Jess McKenna is a podcast host residing in Los Angeles, Earth. She was magically compelled by Spintax the Green to assist him in his efforts to return to Foon by co-hosting a podcast with him and the reanimated monster Salmagundi.

With only Hello From the Magic Tavern as a reference, Spintax understood all podcasts to be made up of a wizard, a beastman (Sal), and a human. He chose Jess to fill this last role, and for seven weeks she interviewed mythical Earth creatures so that Spintax could siphon their magical energies.

During this process Jess was confined to the Earwolf podcast studios, but her absence was not noticed by the outside world because another version of Jess, who Spintax dubbed “Sideways Jess” continued to live her normal life (and begin Muay Thai classes).

When Spintax had gathered enough magical energy to open a portal to Foon, Jess was confronted by “Sideways Jess”, and the two fought to the death. The Jess we know prevailed, killing her double with a Mirror Sword, freeing her to resume her normal life.

Jess McKenna is played by Jess McKenna.
