Summary

TV writers wear many hats, and it’s important for writers of all levels to have the chance to wear them. Liz and Sarah share how getting to do ALL parts of the job early on in their career helped them learn how to run a show, and how offering the same opportunities they received makes the job more fulfilling for everyone. Next, in Take A Hike, Liz has some news of the four-legged variety—Nacho the Corgi now has a sister, Daisy! Liz and Sarah discuss how embracing a new identity is both freeing and exhilarating. In Take Two, they reveal listeners’ reactions to their scripted pandemic podcast idea—it’s a fairly even split! Finally, this week’s Hollywood Hack will light up your space in style: a personalized LED sign.
