We get into the burning forest that is scene-writing and he answers the age-old question that has plagued racist Hollywood producers for centuries: exactly which tattoos are gang-enough? More pressingly, we discuss balancing our art against the pressures of commerce, and he reveals the best acting advice he ever got: Pro-tip: it works for writing effective scenes in any genre.

F*ck Small Talk Mariah Jeau I’m Mariah Jeau and I’m a life & recovery coach. And I say ”F*ck Small Talk” to all forms of topics that tend to get labeled as taboo, hush-hush, or ”inappropriate.”We all have experience with love and loss, self-doubt, mental health, addiction, self-sabotaging behaviors, loneliness, and are all fighting for our right to be seen and heard. To belong. I’m a firm believer in telling the whole truth and holding space for people who are learning more about what it means to be human- to connect- no matter how uncomfortable those real conversations can feel.Listen, Subscribe, and Share with a friend who could use the extra connection today!

Owen and Laine are your intrepid guides to investigate this variety of animal behaviors – exploring the depths of the ocean, the heart of the forest, and the bushes in your backyard – to dive deep into nuanced conversations about queerness in the animal world.
