Podcasts about hollywood hacks

Along with everyone else in Los Angeles, Liz and Sarah are feeling so much love for their city. But they’re also suffering from crisis fatigue. Every time they think life in L.A. is getting back to “normal,” something else happens. This time, it’s the devastating wildfires that have taken lives and destroyed thousands of beloved homes and businesses. In Take A Hike, Sarah reveals the twenty-five categories of things she is NOT going to buy in 2025. Next, in The Craft (& Fain), Liz and Sarah share a tool of the trade that’s helping them with their new Substack newsletter — Notebook LM. This week’s Hollywood Hacks come in handy when the power is out (as it has been for Sarah and many Angelinos this week): a battery-operated neck light and a wireless bottle lamp.

In this special episode, Liz and Sarah talk about a TV writer/producer's role on set. Why are you there? (To help execute the Showrunner's vision.) What should you do to prepare? (Go to lots of meetings!) What should you do during shooting? (Communicate with the director.) They also have several set Hollywood Hacks — wear layers, bring rain pants, avoid Craft Services, get a brightly colored bag, and wear Hokas! Finally, Liz recommends (again) a book by veteran Showrunner Jeff Melvoin, Running The Show: Television From The Inside.  Get in touch on Instagram: @Sfain & @LizCraft Get in touch on Threads: @Sfain & @LizCraft Visit our website: https://happierinhollywood.com Join our Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/HappierinHollywood/ Happier in Hollywood is part of ‘The Onward Project,' a family of podcasts brought together by Gretchen Rubin—all about how to make your life better. Check out the other Onward Project podcasts—Happier with Gretchen Rubin, and Side Hustle School .

On this Monday edition of Sid & Friends in the Morning, we definitely do not debrief the anti-Semitic and loony leftist display that was the 2024 Oscars award show last night, where there was virtually zero pro-Israel commentary throughout the course of the night. As a matter of fact, the contrary emerged and in big numbers, with Hollywood's brightest stars voicing their wishes for an immediate cease-fire in the Middle East. In other news of the day, President Biden spews more of his utter lies on fake news' MSNBC over the weekend, GOP candidate Donald Trump stumps in Georgia as polls continue to show his edge over the incumbent Biden, Attorney General Letitia James nearly gets booed off the stage while addressing the FDNY, and new RNC co-chairs are revealed following Ronna McDaniel's stepping down. Josh Eisen, Curtis Sliwa, Rich Lowry, Joe Tacopina, Steve Bannon, Alan Dershowitz and Nancy Mace join Sid on this Monday installment of Sid & Friends in the Morning. Learn more about your ad choices.

Liz and Sarah share HUGE news! There will be a Season Two of Fantasy Island! Now that they've accomplished this major goal, what's next? They're setting their sights on making it to one hundred episodes. Or maybe seventy-five... In Hits & Bombs, they give a big Hit to two colleagues — Marie Jacobson and Ray Ricord of Sony Gemstone — for being such cheerleaders. They also give a Bomb to the bureaucratic hell that kept them from starting the writers room when they wanted to. This week, Liz and Sarah have two Hollywood Hacks. The first is a hiring hack: When you're up for a job, ask former employers to send unsolicited praise to the people who might hire you. The second Hollywood Hack might keep you out of hot water: Instead of texting sensitive information, write it in a Google doc, then delete. Finally, Sarah had a Halloween Celebrity Sighting — singer-songwriter Lisa Loeb.
