Joining Lisa today are two veteran television writer/producers Ted Sullivan (Riverdale, Star Trek Discovery, Supergirl, Revenge, Rizzoli & Isles, Law and Order Criminal Intent) and Elizabeth Benjamin (Dead to Me, The Flight Attendant, Bridgerton, 13 Reasons Why). \xa0Lisa asks them about the current Writer\u2019s Guild of America strike which is impacting all levels of production.\xa0

\xa0Ted and Liz talk about their careers and how working conditions have deteriorated for writers who love this work, yet who have been pushed to the breaking point. \xa0This is not about getting a guaranteed big payday, it is about the most basic things like making your insurance and feeding your families \u2014 all the while Studios and Streaming companies are making record profits. \xa0Also at stake is the creative process itself, which draw so many people into the profession in the first place.

Join us for this important conversation.

**** Production Note: \xa0Unfortunatley Liz' internet connection had a couple of spotty patches, so please bear with us. Also, Lisa flubs the name of her union, she accidentally says Local 99 instead of Local 399 (Go Teamsters!). Lastly, per usual, Lisa is very "salty" with her language. So protect your delicate sensabilities. Thank you!\xa0
