This week, we’re bringing it back to our housemates with “The Waiting Room,” a short film created by William Leitch and written by Blake Benson. Four people, recently deceased, find themselves in a comfy purgatory where they have to decide which one of them will return to the land of the living. Will and Blake talk about their collaborative process, worldbuilding, and the people they’d have a drink with in heaven.

Detours: Ready Player One (Ernest Cline), Atlanta (Hulu), Servant (Apple TV)
