So, I just like to end the interviews by asking the guests, is there anything that you’ve seen recently that you can recommend to our mostly screenwriting audience?

Okay, it’s a very inside baseball show It’s like from the studio perspective of like it follows a studio head and a fake, you know, Hollywood company How basically like the drama that goes on and trying to get like a big tentpole movie made and you know the conflict of like well I’m I care about the art but then also it’s like but yeah the arts not going to sell money like this movie about the Kool-Aid guy coming to life is Going to you know sell and I do think yeah, obviously it’s an extreme version of it But I you know from reading interviews about it and just learning a little more there’s a lot of real-life experiences that kind of Acted as inspiration for how the show came out and I think for like the screenwriting perspective I’m seeing that like in the studio system I’m saying like wow If I ever have a script one day that gets bought by a studio What that script is going to end up looking like is probably most likely going to look nothing like what was submitted to them But I just think it’s a it’s a fun like, you know wacky look into you know, that part of the entertainment industry So I definitely recommend it for people who are in the industry adjacent or curious
