Episode 20: Intermediate Explorations of Conventions (a.k.a All About Comic-Con)

08/06/20 • 121 min

We're back with a really fun episode! We recorded this one a while ago, but in honor of the recent #SDCCAtHome2020, we thought it was appropriate to talk about Comic-Con! Special guest Jen K. (co-host of Watchover with Jen & Calli, an Arrow podcast) joins Jenn and Chels as the three reminisce on their Comic-Con memories.
We give you advice and packing tips for the convention, recall some of our favorite press rooms and interactions, and talk about what makes the con so special: the people! Enjoy this conversation.

Episode 19: Practicum in Documentary Making (feat. Megan Ganz)

We're so thrilled for you to listen to the second part of our conversation with Megan Ganz — a person we greatly admire! Our conversation dives deep into her career as a writer and her journey to Community. We specifically talk through the plot, memorable jokes, and what Megan recalls from writing the show's two documentary episodes: "Intermediate Documentary Filmmaking" and "Documentary Filmmaking Redux."
We also talk about her new show, Mythic Quest, and what it's like to write on a show vs. run a show. This was a wonderful conversation with someone who is as lovely as she is talented (and we can't wait to have Megan back when we get to "Basic Lupine Urology")!
