Chris Hill does an amazing job of interviewing writers. He delivers questions with grace. The tone and pace are relaxing. I’ve literally binged every episode, and I recently signed up for the extended episodes because season two just ended.
These are by far the most valuable and insightful interviews with screenwriters I’ve ever heard. Because Chris is such an accomplished screenwriter he has a knack for getting deep into the heart of the screenwriting journey of each person he interviews. Can’t wait for the next episode!
Terrific, insightful interviews with screenwriters who have made the coveted Blacklist. Highly recommended not just for writers but for anyone with an interest in the film and television industry.
Really enjoying the deep dive into the annual Blacklist. Super insightful.
Looking forward to hearing more :)
