The WGA strikes and SAG strikes have been going on for a while now as the writers and actors fight for what they are owed. What toll does it take on not just them but those working on the lower scale in the studios? What toll does it take on the writers scraping by, the actors trying to live? How do you balance the good feeling of fighting for what is right and the fear of not paying your bills? Licenced therapist Miri Jedeikin joins Kristian Harloff on this special episode of The Big Thing.
