Oh, I didn't know you have to get them up. I just assumed they'd wake up.

They're awake. They're just home.

It could be just a laughter away right out.

You know you'd like them open night till they're safe.

Hi and welcome to Happier in Hollywood, the podcast about how to be happier, healthier, sane, or more creative, more successful, and more productive, and have back-biting superficial, chaotic, unpredictable, fundamentally insane world.

I'm Liz Kraft, a TV writer and producer, living in LA, and with me is my high school friend and writing partner Sarah.

That's me, Sarah Fane. On this podcast, we talk about being writers in Hollywood, how we balance a career and friendship, and how to survive the war of attrition that is life in Los Angeles.

In today's episode, we're going to talk about the note we always get and give.

Then Sarah will explain why puzzles are making her happier and healthier.

We've also got a follow-up mailroom question, and in hits and bombs, we've got a bomb for someone who's been in the news a lot lately.

Finally, this week's Hollywood hack is something Sarah discovered over the Thanksgiving holiday.

But first, we have an update on a personal level.

I would like everyone to know that I got two more baby chickens for a total of six chickens now.

Wow, and I'm so happy and I love them and they're so cute.

I know you call me, you said, okay, it turns out I am a chicken person.

I mean, I wouldn't put them quite at dog level, but they're...

They just have so much personality and they're so cute and there's so much going on with them.

And you know that book, The Nature Fix, that I loved, written by, I want to say Florence Williams, it's been a while.
