Summary
This week, Busy and Caissie squeezed in an hour of podcasting between Busy’s scenes on set, but when they reconvened to record the rest, decided that first hour sucked and should be tossed out, proving that this podcast does sometimes dabble in quality control. Caissie tells about how she was humiliated by a bird and a chef, and Busy reveals what one of her children caught her doing in the kitchen late at night. Then, one of Busy’s besties, TV and film writer and author Abdi Nazemian joins to discuss the writers’ strike, his pivot from screenwriting to novels, and what it’s like to have landed on some banned book lists. Plus, hear all about what happened during the last writers’ strike when Abdi and Busy met Tori Amos.<br /><br />SPONSORS:<br /><br /><a class="linkified" href="http://auraframes.com" target="_blank">http://Auraframes.com</a> PROMO CODE: BUSY for up to $30 off, plus free shipping of your Aura digital photo frame.
