Summary

Liz and Sarah discuss the current phase of their work cycle — consuming. With an eye toward developing IP, they’re reading, listening, and watching everything that comes their way. And they love it! In Take A Hike, Liz talks about how her recent Saturday afternoon outing to see stylist Allison Bornstein at the Theory Store in Brentwood inspired advice to “go solo.” Then Sarah gets a Hit for writing postcards to voters, and Liz and Sarah give a Bomb to the universe for giving Sarah a bad cold, causing them to cancel their Roar 24 at the Emerald Iguana Inn. This week Sarah has a tech Hollywood Hack: the Echo Show 15. And finally Liz recommends watching the new documentary, Brats, directed by Andrew McCarthy, on Hulu.
