"A story is a story is a story." So says veteran TV writer Nina Bargiel who's been spinning live-action and animated yarns for years. Nina is an LA-based TV writer and producer who currently writes on Mao Mao, Heroes of Pure Heart (Cartoon Network) and has other projects percolating. Nina describes her writing philosophy and goals, which focus on crafting stories in which kids see themselves, as well as are entertained. She and her brother co-wrote the coming-of-age bra episode for Lizzie McGuire, a 2001 Disney Channel classic. Earlier this month, Hilary Duff led the the cast for a Zoom table read/fundraiser of this episode.

Super Internet couple Nina Bargiel and Will Stegemann lie down on the couch together and open up (ooh la la!) about their relationship.
After treating the listening audience to a song, Gene and Brodie discuss Nina Bargiel's contribution to the Lizzie McGuire canon, take questions from Twitter, report on how their holidays went, chronicle Brodie's fight with Frankenstein youth on the mean streets, psychoanalyze Brodie's challenging Jesse Thorn to a boxing match (for charity!), make New Year's resolutions, plan getting loaded in 2011 with JP Spaulding, and end the show with some more crooning and funky beats.
