Summary

Liz and Sarah talk to director (and one of Liz’s best friends) Caroline Suh about “Working: What We Do All Day,” the gripping new documentary series she made with President Barack Obama. What do we need to be happy at work? What was it like to collaborate with a former President? What role do unions play in the United States? Then Liz and Sarah answer a Mailroom question about whether or not they ever “lose” ideas. Yes, they do! This week they’re asking listeners to help with a Hollywood Hack — what’s the perfect T-shirt? Finally, Liz recommends a podcast: Corporate Gossip.
