    Episode 144 | Ethan Lipton: "Copy Editing"

    Survival Jobs is excited to share Episode 144 featuring the brilliant playwright and performer Ethan Lipton. In this heartfelt and engaging conversation, hosts Jason A. Coombs and Samantha Tuozzolo  sit down with Ethan to talk about his new play The Seat of Our Pants, now running at The Public Theater. The episode gives listeners an inside look at the creative spark behind the production and invites them into the curiosity, humor and imagination that fuel Ethan’s work! This episode also explores the heart of why Ethan’s journey matters to so many artists. Jason and Samantha talk with him about the long stretch between early dreams and visible breakthroughs, and how hard it can feel when you are still grinding at your survival job, auditioning, submitting work and trying to stay hopeful. Ethan reflects on that part of his life with honesty and generosity, sharing, “I really went to work, right after college. I moved to Chicago when I was 21 and started temping, so work has always been kind of central to my journey, and so it ended up working for me. I agree, you can find your people anywhere.” His story is a reminder that community, persistence and a belief in your voice can carry you through the uncertain stretches and toward the moments that finally click. The Seat of Our Pants is brought to life by an extraordinary creative team led by Ethan and directed by Tony nominee Leigh Silverman. Inspired by Thornton Wilder’s The Skin of Our Teeth, the play blends spectacle, comedy and emotional truth in a way that feels fresh and deeply resonant. The production is running at The Public Theater’s Newman Theater through December 7, and tickets are available now at publictheater.org or through TodayTix. The episode opens with Jason and Samantha live in the Welcome to Times Square Studios, discussing the recent production of Bat Boy: The Musical at New York City Center, which ran through November 9 this season. The revival features a star-studded cast and a richly ambitious staging of the cult classic!

    Episode 131 | Live from the 2025 Tribeca Film Festival

    Episode 131 of Survival Jobs, a Podcast is live and brimming with red carpet exclusives from the 2025 Tribeca Film Festival. Hosts Jason A. Coombs and Samantha Tuozzolo hit the ground running at one of NYC’s premier cultural events, bringing listeners up close with the actors, directors and writers behind this year’s most exciting and thought-provoking premieres. This special episode features conversations from the NYC premiere of Twinless written and directed by James Sweeney , where actor Dylan O’Brien shares his experience not only starring in but also producing his first film — marking a new chapter in his artistic journey. He shared,  “you don’t really know what you’re going to get till you’re on the ground doing it. We [James Sweeney and I] certainly had a lot of conversations, I was attached with him for this project for many years until we got it off the ground!” Listeners will also hear from the cast and creators of several world premieres, including Westhampton, a sharply meta and heartfelt film shot in the actual hometown of director Christian Nilsson. Stars Finn Wittrock and RJ Mitte reflect on the unique experience of filming in a place so personal to the filmmaker — adding layers of authenticity and intimacy to the story. Wittrock also shared what drew him to the script, “It kind of turns the notion of disability on its head in a way, and sort of humanizes everybody…it’s a small quiet story, in one place”.  In the world of documentary, Jeffrey McHale’s It’s Dorothy! stands out as a vibrant celebration of identity and cultural legacy. Broadway star Nichelle Lewis (from the 2024 revival of The Wiz) speaks to the film’s powerful message of uplifting women, queer voices, and reimagining a beloved character through a modern, inclusive lens. “I think it’s more important than ever that each person feels that their voice is heard, that they are loved, that they are amazing, that they are talented and that they’re worthy, I think that's the most important right now and what is amazing about the film as well”, said Lewis. The 2025 Tribeca Film Festival continues to serve as a beacon for bold storytelling and underrepresented voices. With highlights from The Furry Detectives: Unmasking A Monster (directed by Theo Love), Dear Ms.: A Revolution in Print (co directed by Salima Koroma, Alice Gu and Cecilia Aldarondo), and Esta Isla (This Island) (co-directed by Lorraine Jones and Cristian Carretero), this episode captures the creative pulse of the festival and the passion of artists committed to telling stories that matter. The festival runs until Sunday, June 15 and tickets are available online here!
