Brad Ingelsby, showrunner and creator of HBO’s Mare of Easttown and Jen Statsky, co-showrunner and co-creator of HBO Max’s Hacks come together to chat about breaking into the entertainment industry and all the surprises that come with it. With warm laughter and deep empathy, they recount first jobs, their personal journeys as writers, the stories that compel them and the characters that stick with them. And there’s also some mutual gushing over the legend Jean Smart who starred in both of their shows, and the other talented actors that help them realize their artistic visions.
