Liz and Sarah will soon receive notes on their latest pilot script, and they know they’ll need to plan some recovery time before they dive into the rewrite. It’s their job to take criticism, but they need time to process. In Take A Hike, they talk about the benefit of remaking your social media feeds — and offer listener suggestions for feel-good accounts. Want to smile? Fill your feed with mini cows! This week Liz has a Holiday Hollywood Hack: As you decorate for the holidays, stow year-round decor in the holiday decoration boxes. Finally, Sarah recommends Heartfully Yours Christmas Ornaments from Christopher Radko.

It’s November, which means the annual Hollywood Holiday Shut Down has begun. Liz and Sarah have a pitch ready to sell, but they’ll likely wait until 2025 to take it out to networks. In Hits & Bombs, Sarah gives a Hit to her dog Jelly Bean’s canine ophthalmologist, and Liz gives a Hit to Patricia Arquette for her amazing performance in The Act on Hulu. Then, in The Happiness Project Revisited, Sarah shares what she’s planning to do for the November theme of “meaning.” This week’s Hollywood Hack is great for the environment: Eco Roots Zero Waste Laundry Detergent Sheets. Finally, Liz recommends the documentary Martha on Netflix.

Liz and Sarah sit down with friend of the pod and Entertainment Career Coach, Carole Kirschner, to discuss the state of Hollywood and what the future might hold. Carole’s advice to struggling writers? Keep working on your craft and meet as many people as you can. The business WILL turn around — eventually. In Take a Hike, Liz talks about why sometimes it’s good to surround yourself with people who don’t do what you do — like she did at a recent high school reunion in Kansas City. This week’s Hollywood Hack is courtesy of a listener: Turn your hangers around to keep track of what you’ve worn. Finally, Sarah has a TV show recommendation — The Great British Baking Show on Netflix.

As Liz and Sarah rewrite their latest pilot script, they’re reminded that some notes never go away. From story area to outline to script, there may be an issue that keeps bumping readers. Eventually, a solution will present itself— but it may take layers of work to get there. In Take A Hike, Sarah talks about why her new Oura Ring is helping her be healthier. Then Liz and Sarah give themselves a joint Hit for writing a pitch while waiting for script notes. And Liz gives a Bomb to Real Housewives who overly produce themselves. This week’s Hollywood Hack will help you shop your closet — take time to experiment with outfits. Finally, Liz recommends Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story on Netflix.

Liz and Sarah are making progress on their pilot script — it’s gone to the producer. In this uncertain time in Hollywood, they’re making a point to celebrate all the small victories on the development path, and this is one of them! In Take A Hike, Sarah talks about why sometimes we all need to take a “sick” day — even if we’re not actually sick. Then, in The Craft (& Fain), Liz and Sarah talk about why they still ALWAYS print a script — nothing takes the place of actual paper. This week they Amplify the Netflix documentary Will & Harper, in which Will Ferrell takes a cross-country road trip with his longtime friend (and former SNL head writer) Harper Steele, who recently came out as a trans woman. The Hollywood Hack comes from an HIH listener: Roc Paper Straws. Finally, Sarah has a yummy recipe recommendation — GF Jules Gluten Free Apple Bread.

Right now Liz and Sarah are totally focused on writing their pilot script, and they’re loving that their time isn’t bifurcated or trifurcated (or even quadfurcated). In Take A Hike, Sarah shares how a recent visit from a repairman reminded her that sometimes a band-aid is good enough. At least for now. Then Liz and Sarah discuss the October theme of The Happiness Project Revisited — mindful investment. What does it mean and how are they going to embrace it? (Hint: It involves Move October.) This week’s Hollywood Hack will help heal your skin: Bio-Oil Skincare Oil. Finally, Liz recommends watching Wise Guy: David Chase and The Sopranos on MAX.

As Liz and Sarah write the first draft of their new pilot script, they remember all over again how hard it is to face a blank page. Rewriting is so much easier than writing! In Take A Hike, they discuss why they enjoyed dressing up (and doing their hair and make up) for a recent night out together. Then, in The Mailroom, Liz and Sarah answer a question about how they became friends with a showrunner at the beginning of their career. Sarah swears this week’s Hollywood Hack will improve your nails: Hard As Hoof Nail Strengthening Cream. Finally, Sarah has a book recommendation — Lovely One: A Memoir by Ketanji Brown Jackson.

It’s September, and Liz and Sarah are setting their fall work agenda. They plan to write a pilot, pitch at least one show, finish their novel, and more. Ambitious? Yes. Doable? They’ll report back! Then they interview Brooke Siffrin and Aricia Skidmore-Williams, the cohosts of the mega popular podcast, Even The Rich, about why they’re not mean, what makes people succeed, and how they’ve forged their own path in Hollywood. This week’s Hollywood Hack is perfect for a lunch out: get a purse hook hanger. Finally, Liz recommends the docuseries Chimp Crazy on MAX.

Liz and Sarah talk about getting a “heads up” before a notes call, and why having notes in advance is so helpful to the development process. In Take A Hike, they share why they’ve decided to start every workday with a ten minute meditation. Next, Liz and Sarah share two productivity tips in The Craft (& Fain). One: Label the days of the week on the calendar. Two: Set the meeting (even if you’re not ready). This week’s Hollywood Hack is a free feature on your iPhone: background noise. Finally, Sarah recommends the NPR podcast Code Switch.

Based on the level of productivity and flow they had during their recent time together in Ojai, Liz and Sarah are determined to spend more time in the same room — thus, they are starting Work Together Wednesdays. In HIH WFH (Happier In Hollywood Work From Home), they have a rant about wanting to return to an office. Liz is ready to wear real outfits, and Sarah is tired of sitting in her bedroom all day. Then Sarah gives herself and Violet a Hit for making the most of their summer. Liz gives herself a Bomb for letting various invites get lost in her inbox. This week’s Hollywood Hack is inspired by Sarah’s recent birthday — take advantage of birthday freebies! Finally, Liz recommends watching Love Is Blind UK on Netflix for some end-of-summer viewing fun.

Liz and Sarah recently met with a development executive who pointed out that no matter how chaotic Hollywood gets, the work we do is the same. They discuss how this notion helps them stay calm this time of anxiety. In a Take Two about Upward Spirals, Sarah reveals what she’s doing to get back into Upward Spiral mode. Then, in The Craft (& Fain), they talk about skinny vs. fat IP. Which do they prefer, and why? This week’s Hollywood Hack is inspired by Sarah’s new interest in coffee: the Aromaster Burr Coffee Grinder. Finally, Liz recommends the book Cue The Sun!

Liz and Sarah use several criteria when choosing which TV projects they want to pursue — a world they love, interesting characters, stories with legs. Now they’re adding a new one… is the material consequential? And what does that mean to them? In Take A Hike, Sarah shares how her new Wellness Journal is helping on her health quest. In Hits & Bombs, Liz and Sarah give a Hit to the Olympics. And then Liz gives Sarah a Hit for organizing her bedroom closet, and Sarah gives Liz a Hit for making two trips to Ojai. This week’s Hollywood Hack is an inexpensive way to protect your privacy: a computer camera cover. Finally, Sarah recommends the TV show McDonald & Dodds on Britbox.

In honor of All Work August, Liz and Sarah started the month with an intense two days of work at Sarah’s house in Ojai. They realized all over again how productive they are when they’re in the same room, and they’re determined to make it happen more often in the months to come. In Take Two, they revisit the topic of to dream crush or not to dream crush when giving advice about making it in Hollywood. Next they share why work can be a useful form of procrastination in The Craft (& Fain). This week’s Hollywood Hack was inspired by Liz and Sarah’s recent viewing of the Suits pilot: Don’t assume you know (what something is). Finally, Liz recommends a book for anyone interested in upping their entertaining game — That Cheese Plate Will Change Your Life: Creative Gatherings and Self-Care with the Cheese by Numbers Method by Marissa Mullen.

Her new prized possession? A Tilly sun hat. Next, in Amplify, Liz and Sarah discuss Sorry/Not Sorry, a new documentary about comedian Louis CK’s sexual misconduct.

In Hits & Bombs, Sarah gives herself a Bomb for not doing car maintenance in almost a decade, and she gives a Hit to the people at Valvoline in Virginia, Minnesota. Liz gives herself a Bomb for her perpetually messy home office, and a Hit for being halfway through her goal of doing fifty Orange Theory classes in 2024. In The Happiness Project Revisited, Sarah shares how she approached the June theme of family, as well as what she’s doing for the July theme of creativity. Hint: It has to do with food. This week’s Hollywood Hack helps make memories: create an annual playlist. Finally, Liz recommends The Friday Afternoon Club: A Family Memoir by Griffin Dunne.

Liz and Sarah debate whether they should be cheerleaders or naysayers when offering advice and insight to people thinking about starting a career in Hollywood. To dream crush or not to dream crush? Inspired by her recent family reunion, Sarah suggests “planting activity seeds” in Take A Hike. Some seed suggestions — setting out a puzzle, a chat pack, or a board game. This week’s Hollywood Hack is for the parents out there: If you’re going on a work trip, show your kids that you’re excited about it. Finally, Sarah recommends a memoir: Locally Laid: How We Built a Plucky, Industry-Changing Egg Farm— From Scratch by Lucie B. Amundsen.
