EPP: Episode 1 — Sinners, Winners, and Dinners (With Friends)


Listen Later

TL;DR: We started a podcast and episode one is all about awards. Jump to 29:10 if you want our thoughts on this year's Oscars. 

Welcome to the Everyday, People Podcast (EPP), we’re excited to share this first episode where we get into awards culture: do they matter, what it’s actually like to win, the CSAs, the Oscars, and the narratives that form around them.

We don’t get into who the fuck called Delroy Lindo “emerging” — but we do talk about his very well-deserved Best Supporting Actor nomination. We also touch on the resurgence of Tim Tim’s white boy rap era, who exactly is "everyone" when we describe a movie as one that “everyone must watch”, and what we'd like to think Sinners and Dinner with Friends have in common.

This episode is free for all members. For our Studio and Screening Room members, we have two more episodes coming shortly, including our first monthly distribution update for Dinner With Friends and a conversation about why Sasha has become a very reluctant writer.

If there’s something you want us to hear us talk about next, let us know. The more specific the better FYI! Here's a few things we're already cooking up:

  • Slate Series — what we’re writing next, developing with others, and building internally

  • Writers’ Rooms — how they actually work

  • Top 5 — Sasha or Tania pick our top five scenes, sequences, lines, or films

  • Marketing a Movie — how success is actually measured and what we’re trying

Thanks for listening and watching,

Sasha & Tania
