The Billion Dollar Episode
from Scriptnotes Podcast
John welcomes writer/performer Matt Rogers (Fire Island, Las Culturistas) for a new installment of How Would This Be A Movie. From crypto crashes to lotto longshots, this week they look at money-themed stories in the news and why they’re worth adapting. Matt shares his background getting started as a comedy writer and tips for non-icky networking. We also answer listener questions on neglectful agents and pitching in drag. In our bonus segment for premium members: What is culture? John and Matt define and test the bounds of what constitutes culture.
