Liz and Sarah sit down with friend of the pod and Entertainment Career Coach, Carole Kirschner, to discuss the state of Hollywood and what the future might hold. Carole’s advice to struggling writers? Keep working on your craft and meet as many people as you can. The business WILL turn around — eventually. In Take a Hike, Liz talks about why sometimes it’s good to surround yourself with people who don’t do what you do — like she did at a recent high school reunion in Kansas City. This week’s Hollywood Hack is courtesy of a listener: Turn your hangers around to keep track of what you’ve worn. Finally, Sarah has a TV show recommendation — The Great British Baking Show on Netflix.
