Welcome ladies and gentlemen to Story Break, the Writers Room Podcasts, where three and sometimes four

Hollywood professionals have an hour to turn a humble idea

into a pitch for an awesome movie.

I am your host, Freddie Wong.

I am another host, Will Campos, a screenwriter.

I'm Matt Arnold, sometimes screenwriter, sometimes director,

all the time father of my new baby beautiful girl named Dorothy.

My name is Beth May, and I'm not really a Hollywood professional, semi-professional writer, amateur

actors, semi-professional slam, poet, and always the beloved mother of a beautiful cat named

Teddy.

Oh, my life, my wife, just kidding, she's my cat.

Beth joins us today as we tackle our usual...

Is this the third time?

No, this is number two only number two? Yeah, I like the thing that my spirit like yeah. Oh well we're we're going to do is like once you're on the fifth time, we'll give you a jacket, like

S&L.

Okay, okay, cool.

I just felt like in my head like the Oscar voice, when they're like,

this is Beth's second time on Story Break and her first time winning an Academy Award. She's been nominated.

She was nominated for the episode, Tierjurker.

If only, it was that easy.

This is an awards qualifying podcast.

Stephen Schillberg is furious.
