John and Craig tackle loglines: what they are, how people write them, and why screenwriters shouldn’t worry all that much about them.
We also discuss updates on the WGA agency deal and listener questions on lawyers, options, and ASL.
Finally, in our bonus segment for premium members, we discuss gaming consoles.
