Summary

Hope you had and are having an AMAZING Holiday. We're going to be doing something a little different for this week's show. Meg and Lorien are taking some MUCH-deserved time off (we hope you can too), but we had a little chat about content we could possibly run, or re-run to keep you going through the Holiday's. In 2018, Jeff brought Meg and Lorien on his show "The Unproduced Table Read" for a special interview, and that's the moment they began collaborating professionally. It's a really engaging interview, and it's a fun chance for you all to get to know them even better - their time at Pixar, their work collaborating on a pilot together, and, because it's them, a thoughtful and compelling conversation about emotion, bravery, and the work behind the work. Anyways, we hope you enjoy the conversation and we'll see you all in 2021! LISTEN TO THE UNPRODUCED TABLE READ: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/unproduced-table-read/id1197673735

0:54.8	non-profit called Sinistory that I was plugged into thanks to a show I used to host and produce

1:11.7	and I will link it in the description below in case you want to check it out.
1:15.2	In 2018 I brought Meg and Lorian on my show for a special interview and that's the moment we began
