EP. 313: WGA Strike Talk With Negotiating Committee Member Nicole Yorkin

Liz and Sarah discuss the WGA strike with their friend Nicole Yorkin, who is a member of the WGA Negotiating Committee. Why do writers view this moment in the business as existential? What is the AMPTP’s stance on AI? How will the unity among all the entertainment unions impact this labor action? Then, in The Craft & Fain, Liz and Sarah talk about how they’re “getting down to business” on their novel. They’ve each committed to writing five hundred words a day, five days a week. This week’s Hollywood Hack will make it easier to share expenses with friends and family: the Tricount app. Finally, Liz recommends a book — Unscripted: The Epic Battle for a Media Empire and the Redstone Family Legacy by James B. Stewart and Rachel Abrams.
