Summary

Liz and Sarah recently met with a development executive who pointed out that no matter how chaotic Hollywood gets, the work we do is the same. They discuss how this notion helps them stay calm this time of anxiety. In a Take Two about Upward Spirals, Sarah reveals what she’s doing to get back into Upward Spiral mode. Then, in The Craft (& Fain), they talk about skinny vs. fat IP. Which do they prefer, and why? This week’s Hollywood Hack is inspired by Sarah’s new interest in coffee: the Aromaster Burr Coffee Grinder. Finally, Liz recommends the book Cue The Sun! The Invention of Reality TV by Emily Nussbaum.
