Hey TSL fam, producer Jeff here and we are thrilled to release a bonus rebroadcast of our Jody Foster episode

Partially in honor of the True Detective Night Country premiere last night on HBO, which was incredible

If you haven't watched it yet, it's outstanding.

Jody talks a bit about her working relationship with writer-director Esa Lopez in this

conversation and I have a sneaking suspicion it's gonna be the next big buzzy Sunday night HBO show.

So if you haven't watched it definitely go check it out and just as importantly we hope you enjoy this

amazing conversation with Jody. Have a good one guys.

Hey everyone, welcome back to the screen running life.

I'm Meg Lafov.

And I'm L'Orian McKenna.

Today we are thrilled to be chatting with Jody Foster.

Jody is an award-winning actor and filmmaker who has worked on all sides of our business

in front of and behind the camera as a producer, an executive, and director in both features and

TV for nearly five decades.

Jody and I worked together for many years when I was an

an exec at her production company Egg Pictures.

Pretty much everything I know about storytelling

I learned from Jody. So for me it's

particularly exciting to have her on the show today and for you all to get direct

lying to her wisdom. So Jody thanks so much for coming on the show today. Wow, my pleasure. Yeah, this is a perfect way to spend a Tuesday. I love it.

I guess welcome, but before we get started, we're going to be diving into our weeks on what we like to call

adventures and screenwriting. So Meg, how is your week? I'm going first this week.
