It's Climate Week! We're back from the Climate Strike in Chicago to share conversations with some amazing activists and entertainers doing their part in the fight for a better planet. First, we talk to writer/producer Javier Grillo-Marxuach ("Lost," "The Middleman") about working on the new Netflix show, "The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance." He talks about the show's deliberate climate change themes, the legacy of Jim Henson, and even shares an amazing Mark Hamill story. Then, we talk to Glenn Hurowitz, CEO of Mighty Earth, about the international corporations that are tied to the deforestation and burning in the Amazon. He discusses what these companies are doing to make the problem worse and how consumers can help push back.  In Chicago, we talk to members of Climate Reality Chicago, the Illinois Environmental Council, and the contemporary ensemble Lakeshore Rush.

On today's episode I talk to writer and showrunner Javier Grillo-Marxuach. Originally from Puerto Rico, Javi earned his MFA in screenwriting from USC in the early 1990s, and soon after started his television career. He's written for a number of rad shows across many different genres including Charmed, Boomtown, Medium, Lost, Helix and The 100, and he created and showran the fantastic show The Middleman, which was based on his own comics. Javi's also the co-host with Jose Molina of the Children of Tendu podcast, which is an educational series that aims to teach newcomers how to navigate the entertainment industry with decency and integrity (and as far as I'm concerned is a must-listen for anyone that wants to work in this industry). Currently, Javi co-executive produces the Jim Henson Company's upcoming ten-hour prequel to their classic film The Dark Crystal for Netflix.

In this special, super-sized, episode of the podcast, Jose and Javi break down what happens in that crucial time between the moment a television writer finishes writing a script and when the cameras roll... what is Pre-Production? What is the role of the writer/producer during this crucial process? How do all the pieces that go into making an episode of your television come together, and how do all the problems get solved - or don't - before your favorite show actually gets filmed? Tune in to this information-packed episode... and stay tuned for the cliffhanger ending, in which Jose and Javi promise to eventually cover... Post-Production!

Jimmy flies solo to give you his very own and hopefully not too self-indulgent San Diego Comic-Con recap! No reviews, news or Top 3. He chatted with many folks and did lotsa crazy stuff. Yes, heavy drinking was involved usually. Expect some fun tales and the usual name dropping. He got so many interviews that will be spread over the next few weeks. In this episode, you'll hear great chats with Lili Bordan (Battlestar Galactica: Blood and Chrome), Blair Butler (Attack of the Show), Javier Grillo-Marxuach (Middleman), Kevin Michael Richardson (voice over actor) and Jonathan Ross (Turf, Golden Age).

Reviews: None this week due to massive NYCC coverage! It's our insane NYCC coverage with interviews galore! Interviews with Javier Grillo-Marxuach, Brea Grant, Zane Grant, Kyle Strahm, Nikki Cook, Greg Pak, David Nakayama, and Monica Gallagher. Hear the boys give their recap of the show, the signings, the charity raffle, the parties, costumes, highs/lows and all sorts of nerdy goodness! No news or reviews this week since there is so much to chat about.
