We talk to The Irrational Showrunner Arika Lisanne Mittman.
She talks about her ten years as an assistant, finally getting her break and what she learned along the way.
We discuss the rise and fall of network television, what the industry learned from the strike and whether she's any good at firing people (she's not!).

Arika talks about her strengths and weaknesses as a showrunner, gives advice to those wanting to join the industry and the times she nearly got fired as a script co-ordinator.

A detailed and entertaining journey through every facet of TV writing from an inspiring leader with a lot of episodes under her belt.
