  • Week 32: Central Park - Seneca Village

    Amazing show! Thanks for such a deep dive! Just wanted to add that the name of the community evicted to build to Central Park was SENECA VILLAGE - a mainly black community with some immigrant families who had built their own homes!

  • Thank you

    Thank you Billy for being my companion over this difficult time. I am a cinematographer turned director. You entertained, informed and educated me in immeasurable ways. You humanized this complex subject that left me missing the people I love collaborating with. Your guest are heavy hitters offering spectacular insight but the most eye opening episode was the penultimate episode with Fran, Meredith and Todd. I must have forwarded the link to dozens of filmmaking friends. I extol the renaming of ... more

  • Excellent, Excellent, Excellent!

    This has been an absolutely wonderful podcast and source of strength, solidarity and information during the strikes. Thank you so much for all the time and effort put into it!!! I disagree with you that SAG got the “best they could” in terms of AI. I actually feel they gave away way too much paving the way for synthetic performers to become normalized, but aside from that, I loved everything else. Bravo!

  • This has been an exceptional and unforgettable auditory experience…

    Thank you all, for having hosted this podcast series since day one of the strike, back in May. I write this as the actors strike has finally ended after over 110 days, and I myself was a strike captain volunteer each weekday these last few months since July. The amount of comraderie that I felt picketing alongside my union and the WGA and other union members was extraordinary and I’ll never forget it. So often as working actors on the low end like me… we spend so much time searching for work and... more

  • Late nights kill

    Lov show, you posted an hour ago, but late nights nights get us all — Leonardo didn’t sculpt the David — (Michelangelo). Wouldn’t have bothered if the show wasn’t so good.
