John sits down with Damon Lindelof (Lost, The Leftovers) for a bonus-length discussion of all things TV.
We focus on getting that first job, breaking story, and how writing rooms work. We also answer listener questions ranging from knowing when to let a pilot script die, to crediting original ideas.
Finally, we talk about the notion of Idea Debt, and how to say goodbye to projects you’ll never complete.
