Craig and John listen to the winner of the Austin Film Festival’s pitch competition and discuss what makes it work so well — and why you would never give this form of a pitch in an actual meeting.
Then it’s another round of the Three Page Challenge, with three special guest readers, one of whom Craig likes far too much.
