Episode 7
Our seventh episode ever features Adi Blotman, the screenwriter of the Jewish romcom, MADE FOR EACH OTHER, which premiered on Hallmark at the beginning of the year. In this chat, we discuss how Adi’s R-rated romcom script got in the hands of a Hallmark producer, her writing rituals and future plans, and how LinkedIn might be the screenwriting hack you need to leverage your writing career.
Episode 6
Our sixth episode ever features Aviva’s amazing producer, Karen Glass! Karen has an incredibly inspiring career — she developed films we absolutely adore and grew up watching, such as THE PRINCESS DIARIES 1 and 2, STEP UP, THE LIZZIE MCGUIRE MOVIE, FREAKY FRIDAY, ICE PRINCESS, RAISING HELEN, TUCK EVERLASTING, the list goes on. In this chat, we discuss Karen and Aviva’s “meet-cute”, how Karen became a producer and ended up working at Disney, how some of our favorite films came to be, her encounters with Julie Andrews and Shonda Rhimes (!!!), and much more. We were fangirling during this entire conversation, so we can’t wait to share it with you.
Episode 5
Our fifth episode ever features the triple-threat writer, producer, and director, Christine Conradt! She has over 100 Lifetime and Hallmark credits. In this chat, she shares how she got started in filmmaking, her evolution as a writer from thriller to romcom, her Christmas film, A LITTLE CHRISTMAS CHARM, and what differentiates good writing from bad. We were super inspired by this conversation, and we hope you will be, too.
Episode 3
It all begins with an idea. This episode has us merry and bright because it kicks off the holiday season with our special first guest, Carly Smale, the Christmas Wizard! Carly joins Isabel and Aviva to discuss her upcoming movie, Christmas By Design, which premieres on Friday, Oct.27th at 8 p.m. on The Hallmark Channel. Carley walks us through how Hallmark movies are made, why she writes so many, and we all agree that movies don't know how people sleep.
Episode 2
Our second podcast episode ever, in which we discuss some exciting new developments in our screenwriting careers, reality shows we pitched in our early 20s, our screenwriting dreams, an infuriating romcom Buzzfeed article (#romcomrage), and the future of the pod! It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.
