Craig and John get emotional. They look at characters’ inner emotional states–why they matter and how to approach them as writers.

We also examine the state of feature residuals and answer a listener question about how long you should wait before turning in your work.

Finally, in our bonus segment for premium members, we’ll talk Jeopardy! Our friend Kevin Walsh is the current champion, and we hope not to jinx him by discussing it.
