On this inaugural episode of “The Process Unlocked with Jenelle Riley,” Jenelle speaks to  Justin Chang, a Pulitzer Prize-wining film critic, columnist, and champion punster. He breaks down reviewing Christopher Nolan’s “The Odyssey,” reveals the Oscar-winning film he loathed, and recounts the great “Boyhood” vs. “Birdman” battle.

The Process Unlocked with Jenelle Riley is coming soon! 

I'm Jenelle Riley, a longtime entertainment host and journalist. I'm launching my new podcast, The Process Unlocked.

For every perfect moment on the page, stage, or screen, there is often an agonizing process to get there. I'll be sitting down with all kinds of creatives taking a deep dive into the process. Actors, directors, writers, content producers, musicians and more will break down how they achieved some of their most memorable moments. I believe you can have fun while being
serious, and that's just what we'll do in very casual but specific conversations with your favorite creators. 

We'll be launching at the end of September, 2026.
