Happy Holidays, Scribe Tribe! Rob is out this week, but Mike and Skylar are here to hold things down. In this week's episode, the guys talk about a recent quote from writer/director Ryan Coogler (Sinners, Black Panther) where he discusses how a conversation with a writer friend of his helped him prepare for his upcoming reboot of The X Files franchise. 

In the quote, Coogler says his friend showed him how a movie is "the biggest moment" in a character's life up until that point, but a TV show is about the journey to that point. Mike and Skylar break that down further and share their thoughts on if they agree and if/how the rest of us writers can use that same sort of framing when crafting our own works. 

They'll also break down the latest in entertainment news, including:

• Netflix and Paramount duking it out to buy Warner Bros. (and what it means for the industry and audiences)
• Golden Globe nominations (and snubs) have been announced
• And more!
