Grammy- and two-time Emmy-winning composer Carlos Rafael Rivera has spent the last decade building moody, complex musical worlds around complicated characters. His earliest prominent work was with regular collaborator Scott Frank on films like A Walk Among the Tombstones, and the Netflix miniseries Godless. But it was his mercurial work on Frank's miniseries The Queen's Gambit that earned Rivera breakout status.   Since then, he's worked on a host of films and series both with Frank and elsewhere: Apple's Lessons in Chemistry, HBO's Hacks. But his two most recent scores, and some of his best, have him dealing with different ends of the prestige-crime-drama ecosystem. Take Netflix's Griselda, in which an unrecognizable Sofia Vergara climbs her way to the top of Miami's drug trade as the real-life Cocaine Godmother; scored like an opera, Rivera's sound is full of harpsichord, lone voices, big breathy melodramatic moments.   On the other side of the Atlantic lies AMC's stellar miniseries Monsieur Spade, in which Clive Owen plays an older Sam Spade solving a mystery while spending his retirement in rural France after World War II. There, the usual noir trappings are leavened by a distinct sense of melancholy, lonely guitar strains underlining the postwar fragility of its French setting.   This week, I'm thrilled to have Rivera on to talk about these shows and so much more, from his musical journey with the guitar to his philosophies on which perspective to score from. It's a brilliant chat (maybe one of the best this podcast has ever enjoyed), and I hope you enjoy.   You can find Carlos Rafael Rivera at his official website here.   Griselda is currently streaming on Netflix, and Monsieur Spade runs weekly on AMC and AMC+. You can also stream each soundtrack at your music service of choice.

From Jean Smart's career-defining role to the breakout performance of Hannah Einbinder as Ava, Craig and Paul break down what makes the show so effective and successful.

HBO has become the ultimate destination of Harm Reduction in streaming media with its shows Mare of Easttown and Hacks. In both, the show's protagonists (again played by women) drink (Mare) and consume drugs (Hacks) without being driven to perdition. Moreover, the creators of each series seem to be actively pursuing a harm reduction vision — meaning not blaming drugs and alcohol for people's life problems. ***** SUBSCRIBE to Our Channel ***** To get more of our content and help us grow: https://www.youtube.com/c/LifeProcessProgram?sub_confirmation=1 ***** FOLLOW us on Social ***** - Facebook: https://facebook.com/lifeprocessprogram - Twitter : https://twitter.com/lifeprocessprgm - Instagram: https://instagram.com/lifeprocessprogram - LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/life-process-program ***** CONTACT US ****** - Website: https://lifeprocessprogram.com - Text us: +1 (802) - 391 - 4360 TIME STAMPS: 0:00 - Introduction + TV drug narratives in history 16:40 - Reflections on Mare of Easttown and Harm Reduction 40:12 - Discussion about HBO's "Hacks" 57:31 - Santon's Memoir! SHOW SUMMARY Stanton and Zach discuss the importance of narratives in determining views of drugs and alcohol. Indeed, these narratives are the critical determinants of drug reactions, individually and culturally. Thus, how American media has shown drug and alcohol use has been crucial to the American drug, addiction and alcoholism experience. Stanton provides a brief history of American views on alcohol and drugs, as seen through the 20-year skein of the TV series Gunsmoke. Alcohol was drunk casually and socially by the show's stars, while excessive, drunken and alcoholic drinking were controlled within the community. American television shifted to the recovery vision of the dangers of alcoholism and as requiring complete abstinence in the 1980s (following Betty Ford) with the appearance of the hit series, Murphy Brown. In many ways, the recovery vision of drinking has continued until the present in mass media. Drug use has never been a comfortable part of American television, leading to shows referencing marijuana — such as The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour and Tales of the City — to be quickly cancelled. The emergence of streaming programming has opened mass media to a different view of substance use and problems, which can de termed harm reduction. In Jessica Jones, Good Behavior, and In the Dark, female lead characters drank and got drunk while still being constructive people. And most recently, the shows Mare of Easttown and Hacks have provided a realistic portrayal of people and their problems-- making HBO something like a harm-reduction-promoting organization. (Hacks actually takes on traditional shows' treatment of drug use. When one character is hospitalized after a drug binge, she turns out not to have been laid low by drugs, leading to a life-saving operation for the drug- using character. This situation is essential for presenting harm reduction views and counseling, as well as for planning and running harm reduction education programs.) --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/lifeprocessprogram/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/lifeprocessprogram/support

HBO's Hacks explores a dark mentorship that forms between a legendary Las Vegas comedian and an entitled, outcast 25-year-old. "The story of this show, in a lot of ways, is about two women who come together and work together,” says Jen. “They make each other better as writers and comedians, and as people.”   Jen talks about the challenges of starting out on her own writing journey and how she overcame them. "[As a writer] you're in a race with no one but yourself. I think early on in my career, I would look at what other people were doing, and it was really hard; someone's success felt like my failure, and that is such a trap that you can easily fall into in this industry. But it's so important to do the work to not fall into that because the truth is… the thing you want to say with your story? Only you can say it in that specific way, so there's no comparison to anyone else."   Don't forget to subscribe to the Write On Podcast on iTunes!
