When 97.85% of members in the writer's guild of America voted to authorize a strike yesterday,

people in Hollywood and people who watch Hollywood carefully were not shocked.

You know, Hollywood executives, screenwriters, agents, pretty much everyone have seen a strike

as inevitable for months now.

Hollywood writers say their pay and benefits haven't kept pace with the times, and that the

rise of streaming has disadvantaged them even more, and if a deal is not met on a

before May 1st, they'll stop work.

There's always a chance that they reach a last minute deal, you know, but I would say a

pretty small minority of my sources, maybe, you know, 10-15% think that they'll be a deal

before.

If there's not a deal, the last time a real strike happened was in 2007, and it did fundamentally

change what we watched.

That's coming up on today's flint.

Support for this show comes from the Genesis GB70 Performance SUV.

Every Genesis is a reminder to try something bold to keep growing, keep hustling.

At Genesis, they've harnessed all that excitement of beginnings into their performance SUV,

the GB70.

It's a car built to turn heads, with stunning design inside and out.

It's packed with intuitive technology inside, like the 14.5-inch infotainment system, and

fingerprint recognition plus the GB70 features all-wheel drive, which is bound to add a little

more acceleration to your next drive.

Your Genesis GB70 is waiting for you.
