Entertaining and informative
I have listened to nearly every episode of this show in the past three weeks, and it is one of the most interesting podcasts I’ve ever listened to. The format is unique: a fantastic cast of actors read a script for an audience, and then the writer(s) are interviewed about the script. It’s a really great look behind the scenes of the both the writing and production processes. Yes, occasionally, and especially in the earlier episodes, there is some poor audio quality, but it never detracts from the script itself. If you have any interest in writing or seeing how things are made (or not made), this is a podcast for you.

Who knows, maybe this podcast can help the shows come to fruition, but in the meantime we get...Read full review »
