Summary

Liz and Sarah have officially started writing their novel, and they’re gaining momentum. They have the first forty pages! Yes, it needs rewriting but they love where it’s going. In Hits & Bombs, they give a joint Hit to all the agents and managers who are showing up on the picket line to support the WGA. And Liz gives a Bomb to the end of “Succession“ — it was an incredible finale but she’s so sad the show is over. Then, in Take A Hike, Liz and Sarah discuss the different approaches people have to picketing. Want to chat? Walk alone? Stick to the same studio? Bop around? You do you! Sarah offers this week’s Hollywood Hack, which was a recommendation from a listener: the Dip Tangerine & Honeydew Conditioner bar. Finally, Sarah has a TV recommendation — Season Two of “Somebody Somewhere” on MAX.
