Leah and Angel talk with screenwriter, playwright, professor, Ed Horowitz. In this very special (we talked for two hours) part one of three episode, we discuss what goes into a good pitch, the nature of the industry in 2007 versus now (both strike years), why branding can work, and how to make it serve you through character work.

Boysober

Boysober

Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
