This week, we’re joined by Rachel Brodsky, accomplished music/pop culture journalist. We spoke for just over an hour about what it's like to chart your own path in media and criticism, and what we in the film industry can learn from the film critic. Rachel shares the early words of encouragement that nudged her toward writing and analyzing pop culture, and how learning to think critically shaped her voice as a journalist.

Rachel brings up the challenges of breaking free from the algorithm to become your own curator, and how to sharpen your taste in an overwhelming media landscape. Rachel also reflects on her experiences interviewing actors like Mikey Madison and Eva Victor — including a behind-the-scenes look at Eva’s upcoming film, SORRY, BABY.
