If you’re one of those people who’ve thought about working in television but don’t know which job you’d like, or love, the most, listen to SNL producer Lindsay Shookus in this “Origins Originals” interview, and chances are you’ll say, “I want to do what she does.” Shookus has arguably one of the coolest jobs in the world of entertainment, and while it’s attached to long hours and plenty of pressure, it’s easy to argue that both are worth the price of admission.

Introducing: The Chris Chatman Do-Over, starring Ike Barinholtz

On September 3, 2018, a rancher in Laredo, Texas, discovered a woman’s body shot execution-style on the side of the road. When investigators identified her as a local sex worker, their search for the killer took them into the darkest corners of the city. Then, after days of false starts and dead-ends, another body turned up, terrifying residents and leading law enforcement to conclude a serial killer is at large. More would die before a survivor finally came forward and identified the killer… but his motives proved as confounding as his crimes.

Introducing Say More with Dr? Sheila

In Glitter and Might, a new series exploring the intersection of show business and politics, bestselling author Shawn Levy unpacks the story of Lew Wasserman, the shadowy legend who lorded over Hollywood for half a century. He was a feared deal-maker, credited with breaking the impasse that ended the 1960 actors’ and writers’ strike. Wasserman oversaw seismic innovations in the entertainment business, but none as impressive as the way he connected it to Washington. Every president from Kennedy to Clinton took his calls. And he was as comfortable dealing with gangsters as with politicians.

Through original research and interviews with Wasserman's associates and the journalists who observed him, we learn how this mystery man definitively ruled many worlds.
