In this very special episode from 2014, Craig and John welcome special guests Aline Brosh McKenna, Rachel Bloom, B.J. Novak, Jane Espenson and Derek Haas to talk about writing books, movies and especially television.
Aline and Rachel just finished shooting a pilot called Crazy Ex-Girlfriend. We discuss the genesis of the project, and how sexism is just stupid.
B.J. tells us about the joy of reading Inglorious Basterds, and how the key to success is apparently editing your high school newspaper.
Jane and Derek teach us what really goes on in the writers room, from secret lingo to codes of silence.
Plus there are songs!
Recorded with a live audience at LA Film School as a benefit for the Writers Guild Foundation. Huge thanks to everyone who came and supported the show.
