Povitsky was the first female guest to appear on The Joe Rogan Experience, after which she began podcasting with DEATHSQUAD regularly. She hosted Little Esther's Piecast and currently co-hosts Brode & Esther with fellow comedian Brody Stevens as well as Weird Adults with Little Esther. She often appears as a guest on the network's Ice House Chronicles.

In 2012, Povitsky turned down an offer from MTV to do a reality show based on her life as a comedian because she felt the series would be too invasive.

In 2015, Povitsky wrote, starred in, and self-produced the short film "Alone Together." The short was later adapted into a pilot for Freeform, produced by The Lonely Island. In December 2016, the pilot was picked up to series.
